Here is a summary of my daily back maintenance routine (for the week):
M, T, Th, F
- QiGong, 30 minutes in the morning
- Kettlebells, 30 minutes in the afternoon
- Light stretching, 10 minutes before bed
W, Sat:
- QiGong, 30 minutes in the morning
- Janda situps, 10 minutes in the afternoon (this is new!)
- Brisk walk, 30 minutes in the evening
- Light stretching, 10 minutes before bed
Sun
- Light stretching, 10 minutes before bed
So just over an hour a day (most days)- not too bad an investment! In fact, this covers all of my physical fitness needs – strength, power, cardio, flexibility, mobility, energy flow, balance – and back health!
