Thanks for the warning. So basically I'm trying to keep the natural curve in my lower back without straightening, and pull my shoulders back when I'm standing up straight?

BTW, I experimented with your pushup suggestion today just to see what to do during my next A workout. There isn't much room for a step where I lift unless I go to another room, so I came up with this: Same concept, but using a small medicine ball. It didn't feel that hard at first until I realized I wasn't going all the way down. Nose almost to floor--WOW!
