Who said anything about a drama queen? I was just curious. I work out in the heat all day long and was curious. It hurts my hips when I do it.
Laying on the back decompresses the vertebra. In addition; if when laying on the back and lifting the knees toward the chest increases the decompression. I learned this from an MD at a rehab center when I had back surgery. Ed
