As with any exercise program, be cautious.  Never push past pain.  If an exercise is not right for your body, leave it out.  I want you to feel great in your body, be sure to skip positions, moves, poses or exercises that make you pain.  Remember muscles burning is okay but we should never feel pain in the joints like lower back, neck, knees or hips....
