That's Fit

Stretch your hamstrings

It may not seem immediately obviously how stretching a leg muscle can help relieve pressure on your back, but if you have tight hamstring muscles your pelvis won't be able to move as freely as it should throughout all your daily activitites -- which leaves your lower spine to do all the twisting. Loosen up those hamstrings and have a healthier back!
