Bad Yoga Back

We gotta run through what to do, when you've got a back injury, that prevents you from back bending.

Funnily enough, that's all the stuff, that you're guru yoga teacher, is telling you to do now.

Now, you're thinkin' that that sounds right. Right? 

My teacher runs a safe class. Whoa!

Who said anything, about being super conchy, during normal class.

We just said, that your guru teacher, is teaching class, like everyone's got a bad back. Can that be right?

Tucking your tail. Not flaring your ribs. Guys. This is when the magic happens.

If it hurts in your back, where the magic happens. Don't do it. Otherwise.

Do it, J.

P.S. You didn't think I'd leave you hangin', without tellin' what to do, when you do actually have a sore back...

For lower back pain

Back bend on a foam roller, that is under the bottom of your shoulder blades. Tuck your tail.  I know!

For upper back pain

Contain your ribs. I know! 

Don't wanna move

Last bit. A lot of people are all "I don't wanna move anything. I've got a sore back." This is crap.

Unless your backs caused you to go to the doc. You will benefit from twists and side stretches that don't inflame your injury.
