I built a lay-down desk

Not body weight, but deadlifts are a good counteraction. Glutes, lower back and upper back all come into play.

Yup. It's sort of astonishing how neatly doing reasonably heavy deadlifts 1-2x a week just fixes basically all the usual lower back problems common to middle age and a lifestyle with a ton of sitting.

Heavy deads fixed my back. Took a while to work up, but it was the best thing I have ever done.

Same here. It's unfortunately something a doctor is unlikely to recommend, even though it's very effective.

Same, deadlifts help a lot.
