. . . I spoke with my therapists about needing to work on core strengthening. Mine is too deconditioned. I have started some beginner exercises to start that process.

Funny thing is, moderately exercising my legs, back and abdomen actually makes much of my back pain decrease.

I tried a new exercise today. Standing overhead press. I used the square box / rack… - haighter July 23, 2026, 10:40:45
- Are you doing the overhead press and stepping up on the box?* - villain July 23, 2026, 13:29:13
  - No no...using the squat rack to hold the barbell about chest high... - haighter July 23, 2026, 14:05:21
    - gotcha....that sounds difficult* - villain July 23, 2026, 14:59:27
      - Villain…I took a pic of the equipment for this exercise this AM for perspective… - haighter July 28, 2026, 8:56:33
        
        Cool. Does your gym have a smith machine? Seems like the perfect piece of equipment - villain July 28, 2026, 12:37:09
        
        Yes...2 actually. But they seem to be permanently occupied by ladies doing pelvic thrusts. * - haighter July 28, 2026, 13:38:04
        
        that really drives me insane* - AceFrehley July 28, 2026, 14:21:30
        
        I'm in full support of the ladies working on their assets. - villain July 28, 2026, 14:23:45
        
        lol, same in my gym* - villain July 28, 2026, 14:19:48
shoving these huge arrows around is taxing my finger* - Playoff Rondo July 21, 2026, 19:59:01

What happened? Age? ;-) * - haighter July 21, 2026, 10:08:46
- I guess. Bent over at the waist a few weeks ago to work on something at floor level. - Lexillini July 21, 2026, 10:24:45
  - It could be a muscle, but very likely could be sciatica. - villain July 21, 2026, 14:04:29
    - Thanks. This does seem a little persistent for just a muscle strain / sprain.* - Lexillini July 21, 2026, 14:27:58
  - About a month ago I totally switched up my workouts... - haighter July 21, 2026, 12:54:02

    - I do squats and romanian dead lifts now - AceFrehley July 21, 2026, 12:59:46
      - RDLs are a favorite for me. I hate squats with a passion - Learning_and_Labor July 21, 2026, 14:56:29
        
        I feared them as I was afraid i would hurt myself. - AceFrehley July 21, 2026, 14:59:09
        
        Much prefer leg press to squats - Learning_and_Labor July 21, 2026, 15:03:17
        
        i'll never do let extensions either. it's a me thing* - AceFrehley July 21, 2026, 15:06:51
        
        What do you do instead? Any isolation exercise?* - Learning_and_Labor July 21, 2026, 15:11:52
        
        I don't do a lot of focus on legs at all. Yeah, I skip leg day! - AceFrehley July 21, 2026, 15:23:12
        
        That’s fair, I was just curious. I’m a newbie so I try to learn from others* - Learning_and_Labor July 21, 2026, 15:40:36
      - You know what they call Romanian deadlifts in Romania? - Lexillini July 21, 2026, 13:14:02
        
        I figured it would be a romanian world. Suprised they say it in english.* - AceFrehley July 21, 2026, 13:42:41
Truly wonder how much NBA $$$ he made. - osklister July 21, 2026, 9:55:28
- Shaq's always been doing that. - auto July 21, 2026, 10:49:22
  - One of my fav Shaq stories (which I will butcher) goes something like this... - haighter July 21, 2026, 12:51:54
    - He seems like a pretty grounded guy for someone with his professional history.* - Lexillini July 21, 2026, 13:15:07
