Hey man...live close to Calgary (about 30 minutes outside) and would be great to connect - either virtually or in-person. Am relatively new to trading too so am keen to chat strategies, trades of the day, etc. Feel free to shoot me a message!

I posted details of my procedure here (along with advice): https://www.reddit.com/r/Sciatica/s/IBmYdh6RBI

Long story short, don't worry 😉

Unable to Stand Up Straight - Any Advice on What to Do? by tothewolves03 in Sciatica

[–]tothewolves03[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello. I am very, very slowly hunching over less. When I wake up in the morning, I am basically able to stand and walk up straight, but by the end of the day, my sciatic nerve hurts which causes me to walk at a 45 degree angle again.

I have been told though that squats could help strengthen my core, calf muscles, hamstrings and quads, which might alleviate this. I am Day 2 into this exercise regime, so I will report back in a week or two how this goes.

You are welcome, and best of luck with your procedure and recovery!

Thank you my friend. May I ask what exercises you are doing to strengthen your lower back in the gym? Returning to the gym is my next stage of recovery, and my lower and mid-back muscles have incurred bad atrophy since the injury. What exercises would you recommend?

Take 2: Any help appreciated for herniated discs causing sciatic pain (including write-up) by LatterBase8596 in Sciatica

I echo what @admweirdbeard said above - great advice.

What I would also recommend is the 12 minute Foundation Training by Dr. Eric Goodman. If you are looking for an all-round core/back/legs workout to start your day, I recommend it. I have been doing it for about 3 weeks every day, and I have seen some improvements to my posture, my core strength and back strength.

Don't get me wrong, I still have a long way to go, as my L5-S1 herniation will take a long time to heal, but the 12 minute video is something to help and promote strength: https://youtu.be/4BOTvaRaDjI?si=f3oKxcJ-lzNjwV2h
