They'll stabilize your back to a point. You want to be careful of the overhead press moves but you can do pull downs till the cows come home. -------------- Mike in Pensacola Now.

For 3 months I couldn't work I was in so much pain, taking pain meds and sitting in traction for 6 hours a day.. after trying everything including acupuncture.. massage worked for me!I even talked to a surgeon.. trust me.. massage works if you find someone trained in DEEP tisssue and understands these types of injuries.. it really works! Good LUCK! -------------- If you are tired of your life, your body, yourSELF.. CHANGE IT!
