Why Planking is good for your Posture & Back

Got back pain, shrinking or poor posture? Getting older is not for sissies! As we age, the body starts to shrink, let’s counteract that phenomena, when you know better you do better!

Over the years, I have prided my common sense on learning via others’ mistakes, triumphs and failures. Life is too short and I will not live long enough to experience each. One thing that has always bothered me was how ladies and men as they get older start to walk slower, the body moves slower and they appear to shrink.

I made a conscious effort to watch my posture and ensure that if I do shrink it won’t be because I didn’t try to prevent it. I may not be able to totally prevent shrinking but I will do my damnest to slow it down to a crawl.

I have noticed that while most older people shrink, some don’t. So what is there secret? What do they know that many others don’t . Those are the people I need to emulate and watch. There’s always a way to counteract an issue unless it’s surrounded with genetics…
