My back cracked just reading this. The most I've lifted lately is a bag of birdseed and I still need a few minutes to recover.

Question whether it's really that serious. Birdseed bags are usually what, 20 pounds max? Unless you're out here wrestling 50 pound sacks of sunflower seeds, I think you'll survive. My grandma lifts bags of potting soil twice that size and she's 80. Maybe try some light stretching before you hit the bird feeder aisle next time.
