Default Problem with planks
Hi everyone,

I have the early stages of degeneration at my L5-S1. I want to strengthen my core as much as possible and I've had some success with exercises the PT prescribed for me. I want to start including planks into my routine, but I find that this particular exercise significantly exacerbates my pain. Anyone else have a similar problem? Any tips or suggestions? It seems strange that I would be physically unable to do an exercise that is routinely prescribed for people with lumbar disc issues.

Any input would be appreciated.

Not a "power pin" problem, but a power adapter problem. sjp_fanatic Computers and Technology 6 05-08-2007 08:14 PM
