It's to keep your lower back healthy. The whole point of strong abs is to keep the pelvis in alignment so it supports the spine in correct alignment. If the abs are strong and doing their job, they tip the pelvis backward, which straightens the lower back. <BR/><BR/>DonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-67448837497031699062008-10-03T10:44:00.000-05:002008-10-03T10:44:00.000-05:00ok Bro Weedon...I'm in.I have a leg that weighs as...ok Bro Weedon...I'm in.<BR/>I have a leg that weighs as much as you...<BR/>BUT...17 pounds gone now, so I'll join your happy throng.<BR/>At a rather youngish 47, it's time...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7291232.post-59334442302521005542008-10-03T07:44:00.000-05:002008-10-03T07:44:00.000-05:00Once you turn fifty, you put aside such silly noti...Once you turn fifty, you put aside such silly notions.

I'll be cheering you and Cindi on. Please do the same for this new St. Paul's member as I approach the big 5-0 (next spring).
