When I heard on Friday’s Big Picture Presentation that you wife had popped a disc in her back it gave me flashbacks to the time I suffered from this problem.

Over the past 30 years I regularly do exercises to ensure my back muscles are always sufficiently fine-tuned to cope with any unusual daily stresses and strains.

Just like the discipline of working through charts on a daily basis, I also ensure the back muscles receive daily attention!

I hope the attached helps.

 

Eoin Treacy's view

Thank you so much for the well wishes and Mrs. Treacy also passes on her gratitude for your generously contributed advice. For a very active person she has had a succession of bad luck this year. Shortly after enthusiastically picking up tennis she developed tennis elbow which inhibited her yoga schedule. Coupled with a lot of time behind a desk heading into the Christmas season I suspect it was the lack of core exercises and stress that contributed to the back problem. Your regime highlights has the benefit of being able to do anywhere and we have resolved that in 2017 we will do back exercises together every morning.
