    Walk a few minutes a day. I try 10 minutes 3 times a day. At least 20 sit ups and as many pushups. More exercises when I'm home.
    Chiropractor visit Quarterly. Not because I'm in pain. Just to make sure every bone is in the right place.
    Think I might buy one of those inversion boards.
    Good luck

    .... for those considering getting a inversion table based on these reviews: you DON'T hop on n flip straight upside down the first time- all the blood rushes to your head n you pop blood vessels in your eyes.
    Work up to completely inverted.
    Otherwise; yes, they are good for the back.

    That's one good thing about tanking, is the walking but no tarping and chaining etc... I walk up and down catwalks to my dome, anywhere from 6 to 12 times a day. It actually feels good. Additionally, I've got an upstairs 'man cave' at the house...constantly walking that, as well. Sit ups and push ups, not at my age, haha... but I'm sure it helps the youngers!! Try those inversion tables. I love mine. Got it on Ebay for a fraction of the new ones, a few years ago. I swear by it. Only take ibuprofen PRN... try not to for the most part~!

    I'd aspirate vomit if I did it too quickly. Great point, though. You have one, as well, it seems.

    I guess that rules out meditating Patrick Swayze style by standing on your head too. :confused::p

    Dump trailer with fork lift ,dock level floor, with electric roll over dry tarp or cow trailer works for me!
    Ibuprofen is really bad for your liver. Aleve is better as far as getting long term relief for me anyway.
