Torso Twists - 30 secs. Feet Up, Arms Out - 30 secs. Alternating Knee Ins and Bicycle - 30 secs. Elbows and Toes - 30 secs. Elbows and Toes (sides) - 30 secs. each V-Ups - 30 secs. Go through 3 sets... This is a great core workout... Hope this explains it well enough... Explanation of each... 6 inches - lay on your back, arm out to the side and raise your feet off the ground 6 inches... Torso Twists - Sit on the floor with only your butt touching the ground. Clasp your hands in front of you and twist to the sides using your abdomen... Feet Up, Arms Out - Same position as the torso twist but with your arms out, hold this position... Alternating Knee Ins and Bicycle - Same position as torso twist, do 10 secs pulling your knees into your chest then 10 secs doing a bicycle motion, then 10 more secs. knee ins... Elbows and Toes - Face to the floor, hold your body up with only your elbow under you and your toes on the ground... Keep your head up and butt down... Elbows and Toes (sides) - One elbow on the ground, opposite hand on your hip and side of your foot on the ground... V-Ups - Flat on your back raise your straight legs and your straight arms in on motion towards each other...

I have the same problem... my back gets real sore without a good matt, and sometimes even then. Some other excercises to try are dragon flags, hanging leg lifts and kneeling cable pulls... I'm not sure about the name of the last one but you kneel facing away from the stack and bring your head down to the ground, holding the handle behind your head. If you go to a gym they'll usually have machines you can use... if nothing else the crunch machines can be done without the back pain. willywhyte 03-20-2007, 07:58 PM wow, thanks a lot to everyone who replied. you guys just helped me A LOT. i really f*ckin appreciate that damn, this websites great. im glad i found it.
