I have been having a problem
Haha, long time I make a topic asking for help. Anyways, I've been having a problem lately. My back hurts when I sit on my keyboard for a certain period of time. It's not my posture because I sit like Andrew said in his videos. It still hurts even if I sit with correct posture, any help?

Regulare exercise like jogging has a nice effect on back problems

I've found it's easier to play when I sit on a bench and not on the keyboard while I play. Playing while sitting on the keyboard would be rough on my back as well.

Joking aside, I find my hands always give out before my back (which is bad like yours, by the by). Which means my hands are weaker than my back, which is surprising.)
