So I went into my basement and looked through stuff I had. I found this belt :-)
I put it on and felt INSTANT support and pain relief in my back/sciatic
Nice find - are you going to wear it when training or just around the house?
Lmfao..... When training and never around the house. It's tight as fvckQuote:

I started doing stretches every day, a couple times a day and eventually it went away completely. If you cross one foot in back of the other and do bent over 'ham' stretches, this is the stretch that I believe helped it the most.
Do you do any stretches or anything?
Nope lol - I know I should tho. The gf won't let me stretch till the chiro confirms its not something to do with a disc.Quote:

Yeah temp relief.. sounds like the sciatic .. I've herniated a disk and also cracked a vertebrae (HS football) and it is noooo fun. Can't even walk. Do you get the numb jolting pain in the back of your leg(s)?
Not really a numb pain..... It's a sharp shooting pain that kills my whole ass cheek.Quote:

NAC, fish oil, low dose aspirin, melatonin, arginine/cittruline, aromasin, prami down the hatch.. jeez. Almost nap time.
Lmao trying to wash my back when I don't have a loofa is a show.....
I hafta use my left arm to push my right elbow so I can reach my left rear delt lol
Omg it's comedy if I forget the back scrubber. Tbh, my back doesn't get soaped. Been having trouble reaching around and even up to my face lately which is ridiculous. I think a good massage or a chiro visit would do some good.Quote:

I'm going through and reading or re-reading all of the educational threads.
Truth. The morning has it's own blend as well.. This was the night time blend lol.Quote:
