My mom is over 40 with a history of lower back pain. I think she's capable of a lot more than she does but she's gotten so used to "taking it easy" that I think she's lost muscle tone that would otherwise help to alleviate some of her lower back pain. I think if she could strengthen her core and spinal erectors that she would have less back pain.
She's wanting to do some cardio, which I think is a good idea, but what's a good weights regimen that I could put her on? I'm thinking light cardio 2-3 times per week and maybe a full body workout 2 times a week to start off with, but I've got a different mindset when it comes to training.
I'd greatly appreciate any advice! Thanks in advance for any help!
