i Just stumbled across this post.
Fatboy,
Use the mckenzie protocols to strengthen and stabilize your low back (lumbars). The lack of core stability is chewing up your lumbar spine. It was designed for muscle attachment and to protect your nervous system, not support the weight of your body all day in an office chair. Use the gym ball, strengthen your core muscles with ab work (in your book), and be more active. Your inactivity is causing your low back pain.
