I know I need to work on core strength, but I also think my chair at work is slowly killing me. I was fine this morning until I sat down at the office. Any recommendations for an office chair that supports your back?

Most chairs that I've run into can support your back if they are adjusted correctly, and then if you sit in them correctly.

Herman Miller Aeron is fairly popular.

I see lots of folks that sit like this (I find myself tending towards this at times). Your rear is slid forward on the seat like you're sliding out of it so that your lower back is not touching the seat back. It's a crap way to sit.
Bad


It's important to keep your rear-end back against the seat back and have the seat back or lumbar touching/supporting your lower back.

Good


Also, I don't think you want to be leaning back a lot, but you need a good angle between the seat bottom and seat back.
