the other problem besides my back in ssing successfully is my ribs refusing to bend in any farther. i am also worried that doing this will damage my organs as my ribs crush them the harder i try to bend over. does anyone have any thoughts on this?

If by "bending" you mean compressing your ribs, then you're probably not putting yourself in the right position. Look at yourself in the mirror, do you look like more of a C or do you look squished? Try for more of a C position.

Also, I'm guessing you're doing it end over end. Try some of the other positions and see if you're still having the same problem.
