Like many people on this board, I suffer from low back pain. I am at the gym nearly every day to manage it, and it still causes discomfort on a daily basis.
The best exercise I have found is canoeing. After one hard day of paddling, the pain completely disappears - even with sleeping on the ground. After a 3-4 day trip, it feels fantastic for a couple weeks. Unfortunately, I don't live on the water and don't have time to paddle every day, so the pain eventually returns.
Has anyone found an exercise (at the gym or otherwise) that closely mimics a paddling motion? Any ideas?
