5 Exercises for Back Pain
2. Cat and Cow.
Two very different animals, but two very easy yoga poses. Position yourself into a tabletop on all fours. Curve your back so your bellybutton is closer to the floor and your head tries to touch your butt over your back and feel how gorgeous the stretch feels. Then do the opposite by trying to tuck away your belly button as much as you can, with your back curving upwards this time and your head trying to find your belly button underneath yourself. Again, this will then feel like such a great stretch. Do this a few times, and as mentioned before, remember to breathe!

3. Plank.
4. Child's pose.
This is another yoga style move. Position yourself in the same position as you did when you were doing the cat and cow exercise (exercise 2), however, this time place your bum on your feet and allow yourself to fold easily so that your head meets the floor. Your arms can be stretched out in front of you over your head with your palms facing down, or relaxed next to the sides of your body, palms facing up.
To finish off the 5 exercises, you will be stretched out on the floor again as with exercise number one. Except, this time, instead of being flat on your back you need to turn around with your belly on the floor, keeping your arms stretched out in front of you. Then as the name suggests you swim. When your left arm is in the air as your right leg is in the air, then the right arm and left leg work together. Thus you look like you are swimming.
Take care.
Please make sure not to rush the 5 exercises for back pain! Form over speed. It is all about the stretching, the inhaling and really focusing on the problem areas in your back. It is not about doing it faster than the person next to you if there is someone next to you. I hope you have fun trying these exercises and lessening your back pain.
