Don't think I have muscle imbalance; mental imbalance?...you probably think so.
Done yoga for years, have a very flexible spine, but hiking down steep hills has brought on some lower back compression that causes painful cramping of the muscles that run down to the top of the buttocks - so now I'm a pain in the ass, complete with pain in the ass.
Gotta nip this in the bud so I'm walking on the flat only, doing yoga and hope a table will help (I think I need traction - yoga doesn't provide that).
This Roger Teeter guy (pictured) has apparently been marketing these the longest (COSTCO has it):
Package - 49" x 29" x 8 1/2"
Assembled - 48" x 27" x 61" high
Package weigh - 69 pounds
