Healing Your Back Using The Ball Friday, 4 August 2006
The following Workout is focused on training the back's three stabilisation systems:
Segmental (deep muscles around the spine)
Anterior (muscles at the front of the body)
Posterior (muscles at the back of the body).
By training these systems, we re looking to strategically stabilise and strengthen the back.
It is recommended that you warm up prior to every workout. Please note that form is more important than repetition, and that, once you lose form, you should stop and rest. Under each exercise there is a description of the exercise, plus the exercise variables:
Repetitions - how many times you repeat it
Sets - how many groups of repetitions you do
Rest - how long you rest between each set of exercises
Purpose - why you are doing the exercise.
Repetitions, sets and rest are recommendations only, and may be changed to suit the workout needs of the individual.
