I know it’s a joke " oh haha you’re 30, everything hurts now cuz you’re so old!" But really, is something wrong with me or are backs just this stupid? Not overweight. Decently active although I don’t exersize every single day. No genetic issues, doctor always says im in perfect health. But my lower back will randomly act up, sometimes it gets so bad that I about black out from the pain. Thats pretty rare though, usually it’s just an ache all day when I move or try to put my socks on. Its not sciatica, as I never feel numbness or pain in my legs. Mild weakness maybe if it hurts really bad.
I feel like any doctor is just going to say welp, you’re old it happens, or tell me I need 3.5 million dollar spinal surgery.
I talked to a trainer at my YMCA about my pains. she suggested a specific machine and it’s been working wonders.
Like, cmon bro, which one? Share.
Absolutely not. What works for one person can injure another. You can’t live online, eventually you have to go out and interact with real people.
I know right, are we really at the point where we’re gatekeeping personal trainer advice? Being a personal trainer isn’t a job you can always just walk into, a certification or two is sometimes required, but it’s not like we’re talking about a job that requires a licensed medical practitioner here.
