I injured my back 4ish years ago from squatting (I assume disc problems) and had to take 2 years off lifting. I’d say one of the most important things to not allowing it to happen again is knowing WHY it happened. Mine was squatting too low and causing internal rotation of my pelvis making me round my lower back and lose tightness. Two years back into squatting and I changed up my form and starting doing things like spine mobility and suitcase deadlifts and my back has never felt stronger. It takes time though so never rush it

Something always overlooked is having a decent mattress. A worn out mattress can strain your back every night, making recovery almost impossible.

Bruh I injured my back deadlifting like a week ago, perfect timing!

[archamedis]

I frickin love this. Man it was a tough journey, back pain from bad stability & movement plus eating way too much & bad eating habits, feeling bloated & constipated, and that wreaking all sorts of chaos. Honestly never thought I'd see light on the other side of the tunnel. Really glad there's a way I can rebuild my functional strength back. Awesome work man!

[kumarpranav]

Perfect way of making people aware and not to get frightened if injured 👍👍👏👏

Dude, Im a jiu jitsu black belt with L4 and L5 "pre disc bulges" (in Portuguese its called a protusão) and since Im following your directions on exercises posture and routine, my back pain decreased A LOT. I have to thank you for this, and your content is so important that Im passing McGill Big 3 to my father that have Parkinsons and need to build a huge core stability so he can get a better balance. Thank you so much for your content, sir.

I pulled a ligament in a lower facet joint in June this year. Before injury i was deadlifting 150kg with a 70kgBW. I'm currently 74kgbw an and back to 140kg deadlifts already. A planned out routine and a bigger concentration on stability exercises have really helped

This channel really is exceptional. Triggered a back pain relapse two days ago, watched this video and worked through the suggestions. In under 36 hours I have gone from not being able to get dressed to moving freely. Thank you SU

Thank you for addressing daily functional movements like picking things up from the floor. I have pets and struggle to pick up their food bowls and clean. Doing laundry and motions like sweeping are very challenging, as well. I wish my PT showed me how to perform daily activities like those.

[EmilPaulsenBMX]

You telling what it feels like, if it’s done wrong.. That is sooo important. Followed here, and Instagram for months. Thx 🙏🏼

[jeffboii]

My lower back was slightly injured but I’ve been doing squats of 5x5 80 to 85% and after two days doing that my lower back feels amazing

[ko-zvtj]

How to deal with the same back problem but also with the upper back bowing forward due to poor sitting posture for 8 hours? You're doing a great job! Thanks to your exercises, I have cured my shoulder and lower back pain, now I'm working on strengthening my abs - they are the key. You make great materials.

What i love most about this channel that a actual good channel got big. Should be even bigger. People with shallow knowledge are winning over audiences with their simplistic understandings of muskuloskeletal health.

[Cosa]

This is some real solid (free) advice, thanks men been following you for years! You helped me with my backpain

[larkinj]

What a great amount of actionable info in just over 5 minutes. Thanks Brian and Aaron! I'm back on the recovery trail again and really hoping to get it mostly right this time.

[notbrandon]

I strained my back leg pressing a lot of weight that my legs could handle but not my back. Going to rest up and try this routine so I can exercise without getting hurt again. Your videos are always phenomenal.

[fitgirlnyima]

Thank you Dr. Your knowledge is gold ✨️

[annatexbb]

Been following you and this routine for back pain it does help but i reach a point where I'm not getting any better
I'm better than last yr but still live with daily pain when sitting
I'm actually lost now I'm 27

. I have bulging disks at L5 & S1, and I get spicy sciatica flares. Thanks for the informational video. Never got this information from any of my docs.

[farstrider]

I started doing the golfers pickup by instinct, been doing it for years now. I usually injure my back with really small things, rarely by lifting heavy.
