Exercise Can Decrease Your Back and Joint Pain !!!

An alarming 50 percent of people over the age of thirty suffer from pain in at least one joint and from low back pain. These conditions have been brought on by a variety of causes, including sports
injuries, overuse of joints in activities such as excessive jogging, strain on the joints and back from obesity, a sedentary lifestyle, and poor posture caused by the weakening of the muscles in the core area of the body.
If done incorrectly and at too great a level of intensity, exercise can have detrimental effects on back and joint pain. But if done correctly and under a doctor’s supervision, exercise can decrease lower back pain significantly by strengthening the core area of the body. It can also lessen the effects of osteoarthritis by increasing joint flexibility and range of motion.
Dr. Mike Wilson, tells all of his clients with chronic lower back pain to get into a good program of exercises for the core area of the body. The Pro Circuit Exercise Program in this book will do wonders toward relieving your lower back pain. If you feel the need for further back-strengthening exercises, I suggest my book Lose Your Love Handles, in which I offer a program designed solely for strengthening this core area of the body—the abdominals and the lower back.
