Re: aikido and back health

Interesting feedback, thx.

I'm off to the doctor in the next couple of weeks anyway. But generally I am happy to wait and see what my back does as my technique improves.

More important for me is training lower abdominal muscles rather than back muscles... and improving flexibility in my hips and upper torso. This will help keep my back from arching during shihonage as well as improving my posture even more...
