Gym was a killer last night... Suffering today

ive been once in the last 2 months, im slacking, but the last time i went it made my back worse

Jodie, you need to make sure what ur doing is correct and beneficial....

Good

just step machine and cross trainer as usual

Wooo just to let people know I love gym and used to do some personal training done all kinds of things if anyone wants any interested ideas of how to work out let me know I shall pass on what I know haha. Also Jodie if your getting back pain doing these things got to see what cause is. Things like posture, doing them to frequently and not stretching be for and after also which part of you back is hurting? most common back pain is in the Transversospinalis (deepest muscle tissue in your lower back) mainly due to posture just to let ya know as I had same thing from doing weights as was skipping the stretching ritual. That's what I've been taught anyways only done the course for a year before going into engineering so don't take my word for it lmao

thanks george, i got back pain from when my car got hit, hurts on and off but it was quite bad after i went to the gym, i had physio that day and he was prodding around on my neck and back so i dont think that helped, rob on here is also a personal trainer, so i spect you two will get on well!

Gave up just wasnt commited enough to it

Hahaha Awsome I shall be awaiting a spelling correction on the muscle name then as my spelling bad enough as it is

Not good about your back from the crash tho they hit you at some speed? Forgot to ask that on the other thread.

i was stationary and they thought i had pulled out onto the dual carriage way but i hadnt, my car radio flew out and my car had been pushed into the lane and it twisted the underneath of my car so it was hard enough! had nearly a week off work for my headaches and that. pysio guy told me to keep going gym though and keep my joints moving.

Yeah probably best to keep moving don't want them seizing up and going stiff sounds bad hopefully they were sympathetic towards you when someone went into me they were right mofos

Jodie, did you have any back issues before the accident???

If you were my client I would be doing a lot of lower abdominal work with you, these are very weak on a lot of people and therefore your core isn't particularly strong or giving any support to ur lumbar spine (lower back)

Also, may seem a weird question but can you touch ur toes, stood up, legs straight!???

rob no i had no back problems before the accident, and no i cant, but ive never been able to anyway haha! ive also had pains in my right leg and pins and needles in my left arm. physio guy says its all connected.
