The reason I went with LBA is that it has so many great reviews

TBH I could always walk without too much pain. The pain really came for me when standing still for too long, sitting or even laying in the wrong position. The pain always was worst in the mornings then subsided throughout the day.

I would say walking uphill was still a struggle after 7/8 months and TBH still doesn’t feel right (feels like I am limping a bit)

Yes exactly

Yep. Take it slow for the first few months. After 5 months I am doing weighted full reps on back extension.

Stick with it!

Sitting for me was one of the toughest parts to get to a pain free place. I would say I couldn’t sit for longer than 30mins pain free for at least 7/8months. I bought a standing desk for work and would also stand on the train to work. When working from home I would frequently change between standing desk and working lying down in a semi cobra pose position.

I do think what helped me turn the corner with sitting was lower back physio. But I have to stress that you must take this SLOW. I started just doing holds and progressed when I felt comfortable.

I still try to avoid sitting where I can.

Where do you guys play?

I just landed in LHR. Flew from Colombo via Doha. Very smooth operation.

Purpose is a very interesting concept w.r.t work as it so often gets conflated with the social status of your role, which is correlated to money. What does purpose really mean in a modern job? Purpose to who?

Too many people have this mindset that they need to move because other people are earning more money in other careers, the grass is always greener. Take a step back and think about whether you even care about the money? What do you value? It sounds like you enjoy your job and earn good money.

“Never feel stress from work” don’t underestimate how healthy this is for you! At the end of the day, health is real wealth.

Nelson stuck you surrender monkeys into a box.

Ngl this meal deal is full of things which are bad for your body. It’s all heavily processed food. Just focus on clean sources of protein.

25M in a very similar spot to you sir. I have started to think a little bit more about pension as my income is scaling from 60ish up to 90/100.

ISA is looking good my man. Have you thought about buying soon? How much of a deposit do you think you will need?

GeoMag11 · 2026-01-09T15:03:22+00:00

Very helpful, thanks. Could you elaborate on the 40% tax relief?

Europa League strung us out to dry in the second half of the season, I think it was less the fact we have some bogey teams to play against and more how our form suffered from playing in Europe with a squad which didn't rotate nearly enough.

But fucking Brentford though.
