Sled Push for Spine Health!

ALL SPINES DESERVE LOVE. (at your appropriate starting point)

Before PTSD was coined as a root-cause overarching condition in 1980… Traumatized veterans would receive dozens of different diagnosis, specific to HOW their psyche would break down Always treating the effect, never the cause. Many of them never got better from isolated symptom based treatment. We’ve come a long way in this realm after understanding the root problem of trauma… Now when it comes to SPINE breakdown… To this day, there is no diagnoses appropriately reflecting the overarching & root-cause condition of the spine. The progression of weakness, neuromuscular firing problems, sensitivity, stiffness, decreased ability to train the spine leading to lessened circulation to muscles & synovial fluid to the joints. There is no diagnoses or even focus for these factors that usually stem from avoidance & misuse of the spine. So instead… Majority of chronic back sufferers are trying to fix their: -Herniated Discs -Spondylolisthesis -Modic Changes -Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) -Pars Defect Are these conditions real? Very. Just like depression & schizophrenia within PTSD population is very real. However if there is a deeper rooted cause to these conditions…we have to go there. And not just stop at treating the end result. You are not still in chronic pain years after your injury because of a disc herniation. It’s all the underlying breakdown & dysfunction that’s keeping you in pain. Due to genetics, anatomy, activity/lifestyle… WHICH way our spine breaks down as a result of avoidance & misuse…is very personal. But don’t get lost to thinking the diagnosis on the MRI is the full picture. Start with iso holds. Get constant circulation. Slowly add in range to support the joints & soft tissue further. HEAL THE ROOT, AND WITH TIME YOU WILL GET BETTER FRUIT. Play the long game. ❤️‍🩹

Only Feeling One Side of the Back Working?

The LBA 30 Reps Standard! Slow, controlled reps with full range! Embracing USING the spina at every vertebrae as apposed to avoiding and “protecting” the spine in life. Build Your Own Back Brace! ❤️‍🩹

The Long Game of the Back Extension. This progression can and should take months! First the goal is to desensitize the back. Then over months you can cause real adaptations to the spinal tissue. Play the long game. ❤️‍🩹

No area in the body does better when completely skipped. Bring evidence to the area to keep away stiffness & sensitivity. Evidence meaning painfree contraction & circulation. Play the long game. ❤️‍🩹

There is no risk in safety building your low back foundation… Everyone does better when they have made consistent back deposits over years, whether they go in to need surgery still or nots Retraining the firing of the intraspinal muscles, and flushing it out with circulation is a good bet for everyone. Play the long game. ❤️‍🩹

All is fair in love & war… And the first 3 months of LBA training 😂 The beginning of low back training is mainly a learning process. Becoming familiar with your true current capacity & intolerances is part of the game. This can come with moments of pain & flare ups. Remain curious and study the clues. This is how you get better at training yourself productively over the “Long Game”. Rooting for ya. ❤️‍🩹

Building resilience before range! There are no absolute rules to training, but this seems to play out best for MOST people rebuilding from a sensitive back. First get to mastering the back extension levels, before testing tolerance to deeper flexion. Play the long game. ❤️‍🩹
