No, youโ€™re not injured.
Yes, you should keep training.

Your muscles are adapting to a new load, a new stimulus, a new range of motion.

Trust the process. Trust your practitioner. Trust your body.

Exercise and pain are a very common combination. But, that doesnโ€™t mean we need to freak out.
A lot of the time it just means we need to change something (๐˜ฏ๐˜ฐ๐˜ต๐˜ฆ: ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆโ€™๐˜ด ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฐ ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด๐˜ต ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐Ÿ˜ฏ), and thereโ€™s a number of things we can change to offload the pain.

However, if all of that still feels off, we can change the exercise or, keep doing it if it is a small, manageable amount of pain.

Lower back pain is rarely caused by just one thing. Itโ€™s usually a puzzle made up of many different pieces, movement, strength, stress, sleep, confidence, beliefs, and past experiences.

Thatโ€™s why ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ-๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ป๐˜ฆ-๐˜ง๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ด-๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ญ approach doesnโ€™t work. And why your diagnosis shouldnโ€™t be based on a scan alone ๐Ÿ˜ถ

With the right education and well supported movement, most people can ๐ซ๐ž๐›๐ฎ๐ข๐ฅ๐ ๐ญ๐ซ๐ฎ๐ฌ๐ญ in their body and move forward with ๐œ๐จ๐ง๐Ÿ๐ข๐๐ž๐ง๐œ๐ž.

No shortcuts. No fear tactics. Just putting the right pieces together.
If youโ€™re confused by your back pain, you donโ€™t have to figure it out alone. We are available 6 days a week, book an assessment now! ๐Ÿ—“๏ธ
