(Excerpt from BACK FITNESS PROGRAM)
Oh! My aching back! This cry has echoed down the corridors of time for countless centuries, ever since humans learned to walk on their own two feet. This unique accomplishment – achieved only by human beings among all l the varied forms of mammals on Earth – has given us the mobility and dexterity to cope with any environment found on Earth. It has enabled us to rule all other creatures, to conquer the Earth and now to set out and explore outer space. As with almost everything in nature and life, however, there is a price to pay for these accomplishments. Humans are still learning how to stand erect! From babyhood on,
every human being repeats the slow learning process – crawler, toddler, walker, runner – and all through life
humans must pay attention to posture and maintain it, or suffer painful backache and its many related ills.
