1/22/2010 06:12:44 AM Report AbuseI think I've found my routine for 2009-thank you! I've lost my core muscles about 3 monthes ago and just got into basics to get me back up and walking but I can't lift anything yet. Am having back problems my whole life. I think this will change my life for the better! V
