Consult your doctor or physical therapist before beginning any new exercise regimen—particularly if you already have a back problem. Do not continue any exercise that causes pain or discomfort.
15. Elbow Press-up
Lie on your stomach, face down with your forehead on the floor. Relax all muscles, especially the muscles of the back and stomach. Using your forearms, press yourself up and hold the position for about 30 seconds, slowly return to your starting position, and repeat 4-5 times. The lower back curve is maintained and strengthened with this exercise.
