highly suggest getting the pdf of back mechanic by stuart mcgill. hes the only guy worth a fk listening to about back pain


i had a microdiscectomy back in december srs. still rehabbing, still not 100%. hope to get back to the gym sometime this summer

I have disc degen

I hang upside down on teeter 10 min every night ,then hearing pad 1.5 hours

Going to back guy today matter of fact

The pain never goes away fully tho.

I suffered from a herniated disc for decades....I had a disc laminectomy about seven years ago. Best thing I've ever done and wish I hadnt of waited. I wasted years of my life suffering...

You will spend your life modifying everything you do to protect your back...and in the end you will STILL end up having surgery. Just go do it now. None of the half measures work, trust me as I tried them all.

You will be back on your feet two or three days after surgery and back to a fully revitalized person that literally never thinks about their back within a month or two.

Idk but you should prolly cop a 8-10 day scrip for prednisone if it’s a literal once in ten year flare up

Personally, I'm convinced all chronic pain is mental stress, as the John Sarno authored book says. Read the first 50 or so pages.

1 Embed that so deep in your mind you're 100% convinced +
2 Do not believe it's physical +
3 Meditate your stress out +
4 remove stressor and people or careers that or mental blocks that are causing your stress +
5 stop creating your own stress by thinking about negative stuff +

= No more pain.

There's 99 year old people doing deadlifts
There's 12 year olds with "slipped discs"
Why can they lift and not be in pain
Read key points / read the book


For the 1% of issues where you're genuinely convinced it's physical, massage or chiropractor it out. The other book gives you the entire manual A to Z of myofascial pain and all that.

I do not agree with it anymore EXCEPT it does relax and release the stress much much much MUCH faster.

In order for both books to coexist in the same world you have to understand my mentality; that chronic pains origin is mental (therefore surgery, and pain pills are evil and bad), but massages and chiropractic are for really stubborn stress and the engagement of another person into your body's stubborn regions are enough for the mental stress to subside. Plus it feels good.

But you can waste thousands and thousands on
1 surgery
2 pain pills
3 bodywork
4 chiropractic

And get literally nowhere except broke

Always try Sarno's book and meditation FIRST
Try deep tissue massages and chiropractic as secondary feelgood
NEVER DONT TRY TO ENGAGE SARNO'S BOOK 100%

Also if you're doing something retarded like abusing alcohol or you have really toxic people in your life or you're constantly broke it's gonna be damn hard to remove mental stress.

I just wrote a book for you. So buy both books and learn about mindful meditation too and prove me right that there's good people in the world willing to give

100 PERCENT EFFORT into what I suggest because every time I write this nobody tries it.

By the way let me show you a text message from my ONLY friend EVER to take my word for it who USED to NEVER lift EVER and had back and wrist SURGERY and WANTED TO ROPE a few months ago:



You can think he's frauding, or that I am, or that his case isn't like yours.

I'm really tired of posting this bc most people don't try and forget about me but it's cheaper by far, I'm selling nothing. And you have little to lose by trying

My protocol was to use headspace app for 6 weeks, reduce alcohol consumption, lift weights as if my pain wasn't real regardless of the fact that the pain was real, change jobs and dump 3 of my "friends", and tweak my diet. Always concentrate on form so you don't get Charlie horses. There's literally billions of people out there convinced that Charlie horses + mental stress is what causes chronic pain. No, mental stress causes tight, locked, muscles that are supposed to be rested and sending physical pain to tell you you have unresolved issues that are real life related and not exercise related.

Today I lift with no belt and focus 100% on form

Here is a picture of me from today, the past two days were both leg days, I'm super sore, today was chest day but not arm day, I did an hour of walk jog run, and tomorrow is another chest day



I'm not perfect but I do lift hard and I'm 100% legit
I'm also not a child I won't say how old but far from my 20s.
