Took me a while, but I finally learned not to bend over bending the lower back. I try keeping the natural reverse curve while squatting or, if I have to bend, do it more sideways, without letting that lower back try to make a C shape. I can bend over on my knees, like getting down in the garden, but not for very long; trying to reach the ground that way on my feet is asking for pain. Something about bending forward while on my feet just doesn't work for me anymore. Sure puts some limitations on you...

All this talk of back injuries. I've missed about a month of work this year because of mine. The sad part is.... all I was doing was sitting in a chair during a briefing. Disc slipped and pinched a nerve. Put me on more drugs than I knew what to do with. After a little more than a week I quit taking them... couldn't tell what day it was and was irritable. Thank God for the chiropractor.
