At uni, we learned that the main thing with dislipidemia (being overweight) is not just additionnal weight on your joints but inflammation which can become chronic and degrade joint cartilage.
Great video, thanks alot ❤😅
Was having constant mid/upper back pain through most of my 20s. Now in my 30s I rarely have it. Strength training is the only thing that fixed it. PTs problem is they have you doing resistance bands which will NEVER fix the issue as it’s not enough weight. Deadlifting and squatting + working on my posterior shoulder muscles fixed most of it
Back extensor/glute weakness is one of THE GREATEST risk factors for back pain.
Also low vitamin D or mineral deficiencies, from our ultra processed junk diets
I have moderate scoliosis and stage 4 DIE (Endometriosis) in all of my organs surrounding the uterus, bowels, rectum, bladder and sciatica nerve, I started Weighted calisthenics and body building 2 years ago and I have seen insane progress both in appearance and pain levels. Do you have any videos on Scoliosis and/or endometriosis? Any tips for working out with those conditions?
I've been sleeping on my side for my entire. Does it cause any damage?
How are you getting so many bodies? 😅 my gf says its shitshow of red tape dealing with cadavers
Thanks, Jonathan, just telling people to breath and brace before lifting would save thousands of back injuries, I have never heard of that before, but funnily that is what I do. Love this channel, you explain things so well and carefully, it is impossible not to learn.
you’ve been damaging your lungs breathing air because everyone who breathes does eventually
and spondylolisthesis???
Lift with your legs. The spine is going to be static, than move with your legs and not your spine when caring things.
clickbait i havent been hurting my back for my whole life
He forgot one, catastrophizing back pain cause we think it's different than other types of pain. Which psychologically makes it feel worse than others
Smoking… does that include marijuana?
Hilarious to see the blogger making the video about the issues that are disastrous the spine meanwhile advertising the chair that is well known disastrous for the spine a lot. E. G. for someone who never heard how bad this gaming chairs, just google and watch reviews.
What a scammer.
Gaming chairs are bad for your back.
NEVER buy ANY gaming chair if you want your back healthy.
😂aging is NOT the issue. Bad position of sacrum/pelvis since for example childhood is the no.1 reason
his video was helpful
Yeah I just recently had a fall injury that I hit my back of the head sort of like a battle ram type and whiplash my neck all seven of them and dealing with pain from the upper to the lower back and including with my shoulders so I'm just following doctors orders like no lifting
Before this I would lift with my back because that was the only thing I have a hard time with how you're supposed to properly do it but I can't do that and somehow and I also work in a high physical job as being a custodian but I found out that one is always hard on your spine the most
