Some surprising facts from the Colonel
Lower back and pelvis



The human body was designed to run, catch, chase, twist, turn and swing. But, sitting behind a desk eight hours a day, standing only to get food, grab a cup of coffee and powder our noses just doesn't work the lower back and pelvis enough to keep it flexible. The following exercises wake up this stiff and often-ignored area of the body.

physical benefits
· Loosens the entire back and increases circulation.
· Stimulates the central nervous system.
· Stretches the lower back.
mental benefits
· Encourages the practice of letting go.
