Abdominal exercise with bad back?

Usually recommended: Strengthening abdominal muscles is a good way to help prevent back pain. If you're having back pain now see your doctor to make sure it's ok to exercise. Usually it is. Here's a link with videos of abdominal exercises for back health: http://www.Acefitness.Org/exerciselibrary/exercises.Aspx?Bodypart=1. If you're not used to exercising start with the easy ones.
