Also we stopped walking during the pandemic allowing lower back muscles to atrophy. My back pain was drastically reduced when I made a point of walking more. The first couple of days my back was actually sore https://twitter.com/karenkho/status/1381373701321539584">https://twitter.com/karenkho/...

I& #39;d never had lower back pain before the pandemic. Weekly hikes, jump roping only helped a little. Walking all but fixed me.

I& #39;m officially an old person because I& #39;m fully a walking evangelist. I didn& #39;t realize how much my daily walking just to live my life in the before times was preventative. It also makes me understand why car centric us has so much lower back pain.
