Prevent Lower Back Pain

Sat, 18 May 2013 01:13:28 +0000

Prevent Back Pain: Exercises For A Correct Posture And A Strong Lower Back

Prevent Back Pain for Lower Back is designed to help users achieve a healthy, supple back.

- Relieve lower back pain
- Improve motion
- Increase core stability
- Correct posture
- Strengthen lower back

Backache and Back Problems:

The human back is an amazing collection of bones, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and nerves, put together so as to be incredibly strong and highly flexible. Our back and spine were designed for movement, and from the beginning of time we’ve experienced the need to stretch.

But the demands of modern life, including poor posture and sitting for extended periods of time, at our desks, or in front of our computer screens, have contributed to a rapid de-conditioning of the muscles that support the neck, back and spine.

The facts speak for themselves: 80% of all people suffer from a back problem at some point in their life. Lower back pain is one of the most common health problems today.

How will this app help?

Prevent Back Pain: Exercises For A Correct Posture And A Strong Lower Back will help you learn a variety of exercises that stretch, strengthen, and stabilize important muscles and ligaments that support your lower back.

Features:

This app contains a series of eighteen exercises and a workout which will help get you started on a consistent exercise routine that will ensure you maintain a healthy back. The app’s graphic illustrations show clearly which muscles are working during each exercise. Features include:

• A Quick Guide to explain the target, type of exercise, level, benefits and safety tips
• Complete detailed step-by-step photos and instructions for the exercise
• Full muscles and exercises search capability
• Anatomical illustrations to show the major muscles that are being worked
• Do It Right tips to advise on how to perform the exercise correctly and effectively

Each exercise includes step-by-step instructions, plus full-color photos and anatomical illustrations that let you see how the muscles work. You will “see” what muscles you’re targeting and learn how to avoid injuring them. It's a complete program that includes stretches, balance and posture exercises as well as warm-ups and cool-downs to get rid of your pain and regain the flexibility and strength.

Some exercises require a few simple props, such as small hand weights, medicine balls, and a Swiss ball, which is a large, heavy-duty inflatable ball, ranging in diameter from 18 to 30 inches.

About the Author:

He is a certified chiropractic sports physician and a sports injury, exercise, and strength and conditioning specialist. He received his doctor of chiropractic degree from New York Chiropractic College.

Other apps in the series:

The three apps in this series are all about creating movement and flexibility on the spine and back, via special exercises that are targeted to different areas of the back:

Prevent Back Pain: Exercises For A Correct Posture And A Strong Upper Back and Neck

MotivAider® For Mobile PRO

Sun, 12 May 2013 22:17:32 +0000

MotivAider® For Mobile PRO is not like apps that promise to help you change your behavior and habits merely by helping you record your goals and track your progress. MotivAider® For Mobile PRO actually does the heavy lifting. It changes your behavior!

MotivAider® For Mobile PRO extends the capabilities of the original MotivAider® For Mobile app. Like the original app, it allows users to stay focused and quickly, easily and effectively make desired changes in their own behavior and habits. PRO just goes a bit further than the original app in replicating the functionality of the MotivAider®, an ingeniously simple dedicated electronic device that for nearly a quarter of a century has allowed people of all ages in over 40 countries make a remarkably wide range of desired changes in behavior and habits.

Like the dedicated MotivAider device, MotivAider® For Mobile PRO works by correcting for a largely overlooked glitch in the design of the human mind - the lack of a dependable mechanism for keeping good intentions "on the front burner." The app helps change your behavior by automatically preventing your good intentions from getting lost in the shuffle.

Easy to use, the app works privately and automatically in the background to keep your attention focused on making virtually any behavior change you decide to make. It uses a private vibration prompt to repeatedly trigger your desired behavior.

CAUTION: Do not buy this app if you're turned on by bells and whistles and impressive features that won't actually help you achieve results. The app is not designed to dazzle you with technical acrobatics. Its sole purpose is to provide you with the simplest and most effective way to change your behavior. It draws on years of experience to cut through the clutter that actually prevents people from making desired behavior changes. It does no more - and no less - than it must do to help you achieve your goals.

By the way, although we realize that most people would like to make several changes at once, the app will force you to concentrate on making only one change at a time. Why? Because we know that you'll get the best possible results if you concentrate on making just one change at a time.

To use MotivAider® For Mobile PRO, you first decide on a desired behavior and devise a brief personal message that will remind and urge you to engage in that behavior. You then choose a prompt type (a vibration pattern or vibration plus audible tone) to use as your private prompt. Next, you decide how often to receive prompts - as often as once every few seconds - and whether to receive them at regular or random intervals. Then you simply "associate" your personal message with your chosen prompt so that whenever you receive the prompt, you'll think your personal message.

That's all there is to it! You can easily modify your behavior change projects as needed, pause and resume them as you wish, and can even set prompting to start and stop automatically at chosen times each day.

This app is clean, compact and fully self-contained. It requires no internet connection to operate and does not share any personal data.

MotivAider® For Mobile PRO users can visit http://habitchange.com to access free resources (including a QuickStart tutorial) developed to help MotivAider® users achieve great results.
