I was just curious if anyone had any advice or tips for doing a good back bend while standing up:think:
I can do a back bend while kneeling on the floor with no problem at all (once I worked at it for a few weeks lol) but arching my back while standing up is toughie. . .
See, I have scoleosis (sp?) which is a curvature of the spine, or in my case, my lower spine and for me, bending my back while standing up is like trying to bend back a #2 pencil. . . I tried doing it earlier and even though I came very close, I immediately stopped once I heard something pop. . .:shok:
Like, you know that sound bubble wrap makes when you pop 2 or 3 of the bubbles at the same time. . .?
Anyway, I REALLY want to perfect my back bends, but you know, WITHOUT the trip to the emergency room. . .?
I noticed that it's a little easier for me to do it if I put one foot slightly in front of the other, and then arch one of my legs as I slowly bend back (just to give you an idea)
Please and Thank you's
