C) Not experiencing back pain currently, but with a history of it.

I seem to have found THE exercise that works, in my particular case.

either of these categories (no pun intended):

A) Currently experiencing back pain, with a history of recurrent pain.
B) Currently experiencing back pain from a trauma (like a 3/4 Reid with a
half twist), but who don't have a history of back troubles.
C) Not experiencing back pain currently, but with a history of it.

Just for the record, put me in category A, as of Sunday afternoon. Damn, I
really HATE it when my back is out. :-(

PS. And to hell with you lucky guys in category D: Never had it, don't now.

C - and a long history it is, going back to the age of 7 when I was neatly
picked off my bicycle and slammed through the windshield of a VW Bug.

After 44 years of pharmaceuticals and myriad PT plans that failed, three
surgeries later I have zero back pain and complete freedom of movement. I'm
not jumping out of airplanes any more but I get around just fine for an aging
fart.

The anniversary of my first pain-free year was June 4, 2003.
I'm looking forward to my second.

I'm A "D".
Once long ago I has spasms that were probably due to loading
cantilopes in boxcars. Couldn't afford a doctor, so just used somekind
of horse lentiment and kept going. If I could have afforded Rushes
doctor I could have made it as a chikenhawk.
I have read that the best back maintence program is the missionary
postion practiced as offen as possible.

Category C, after years of severe and recurring pain due to two slipped
discs. Since I have been specifically training my abdominal muscles daily,
I have no more pain. I wish I had done it years ago.
