Or, if you're new to biking, it could be a matter of building some additional fitness and core strength--keeping in mind that you may have to work on building that fitness both on and off the bike.

Whether you're on a FS bike or a HT, it's important to remember that your own body is part of your suspension. Especially if you get out of the saddle for obstacles, you can make better use of your arms and legs to help absorb shocks.
It's not my new bike. It's my back in general. I do core training in gym three times a weekend. I'm new to mtb and doesn't ride wild or tecnical - it will never happen

Nice tips, I'll remember them
