Lower Back Pain?

[Deleted member 5762]

Must add to this that I started using Xtreme poles maybe around 8-9 years ago and I have still had injuries but Xtreme 22ft was just my daily, not my bigger poles which don't get that much use in comparison which are SLX, I was using a 45ft pole on some jobs but dropped some of those and have managed to do some with a shorter 35-37ft pole I got the most grief and fatigue on the days I need to use the 45ft even though it was only a few jobs at most 2 days in the month and had one well paid job that has just dropped until Spring so sections 9 & 10 are now in the graveyard aka my garage and may or may not be brought back into use.

I get very used to one brush and find it hard to use any other once I am stuck on one, I've got brand new brushes and ones only used a handful of times sat collecting, they might get used one day but most likely not

I would love to try an Xtreme pole, just a bit out of my price range at the minute. You are absolutely right it's very difficult to come away from a particular brush once you are used to it - my favourite is the flocked xtreme sill and I use it as often as I can. Sorry to hear about the dropped job. It's always annoying when this happens, especially at this time of year. I think people don't consider it's your income and are only too quick to mess you about sometimes.

Have you got new boots or changed your mattress? Any number of things could be the cause. Try an ice pack, 10 minute spells with 20 minute gaps for 2 hours and some Ibuprofen.

Ice then heat works for me up to 20 minutes ice then same heat and repeat
Ice reduces swelling then the heat improves blood flow which helps healing

Rubbish my man has training with weights just builds muscle which in turn whill suck 75 per cent of your oxygen this lads got a serious question his not a silly gym freek have now got sciatica after years of lower back pain thares nothing you can do
Medical staff are right keep active but am 6foot so any bending can set it of personal I wouldn't worry just get on with hit if your not doubled up in agony and unable to work just carry on thare is a lot of bending in window cleaning with out mentionin the poles believe me has you haven't elaborated if your back was goin to give way it would of by now

Load of old cobblers lol
I had major back issues due to disc problems and get sciatica/ piriformis syndrome due to it
The only thing that improved it was heavy deadlifts which strengthened my lower back and core exercises
Hurt at first but then rapidly improved
Having a strong core really helps support your spine and avoid injuries
Where do you get this 75% of oxygen nonsense from also ?

Deadlifts defo help your posterior chain.start slow and light and build up from there and keep doing them year after year.

You don't have to go too heavy to build a stronger lower back,hamstrings and glutes.also try the variations

RDLs,sumo,stiff legged(barbell and dumbbell)and vary the rep ranges and weight.

If your suffering from sciatica then I know 2 people who had acupuncture treatment and it cured it

I’ve been lifting for years and keep on top of it mostly but age also starts to become a factor lol
The cold now sets it off and my bad knee due to motorcycle accident years ago

I suffer especially in the winter with my back, though his was done in my younger years being body slammed onto a curb! Anyway, now I use a heated back pack and it's brilliant. Supplies heat to my lower back and really eases any pain throughout the day, been a life saver if I'm honest.

Try doing that yomp in full nbc gear and you may get onto my level lol
Don’t know where you get your facts from but if weight training is no good why does the British armed forces have multi million pound gyms all over and encourage people to use them
Maybe you breathed in too much cs gas during training lol
