When was the last time you took a hard look at your mattress? Aaron Marino of alpha m. talks about back pain and your mattress.
Your mattress could be the difference from feeling great in the morning or feeling beat-up. Aaron tells a story about his hard mattress and his future wife’s pillow top mattress. When he slept on Tracey’s mattress, his back was in severe pain. He didn’t realize that the mattress was the culprit. He was assuming his workout was the cause. Ultimately, when he went back to the firm mattress, his back didn’t bother him anymore.
What you sleep on (the firmness and quality) is greatly determines how you sleep which ultimately impacts your life. The firmer the mattress is better for your back because you are kept in alignment. If you haven’t replaced your mattress in the last 5 -10 years, upgrade your mattress. Feel great in all of your fancy clothes!
