The Importance of back exercises...

Our back is the one part of our core that is often overlooked and this can lead to serious injury, decreased mobility, and a poor appearance.  Our back is responsible for our ability to do most things.

A strong back can lead to...

• better posture
• preventing back pain
• resolving back pain
• enhanced appearance of back muscles and tone
• better tolerance to sitting at a desk all-day
• better tolerance for jobs involving heavy lifting or long periods of time spent on your feet
• increased overall body control during all workouts thanks to better structure

You wouldn't build a house without a strong foundation.  Why are we building our bodies without a strong core?
