    I'm a huge fan of Brian Carroll. This video should be mandatory viewing for every lifter and coach. So much crucial knowledge compressed into a realtively short clip. Well done guys. 👍

    I used to throw my back out all the time. Played 4 years as a lineman in high school, 2 at community. None of my coaches or sports rehabs could ever help me, poor side of sports. I snapped 2 pieces of equipment in high school, a pec deck and a leg extension, guess which one knocked me out. If this sounds like you, get yourself a soft foam roller like the ones at 24 hour or whatever, costs like 20 bucks and lasts forever. Hit every side of your thighs, inside, mid and outside especially. For me, I haven't had back pain even 5 years later. Turns out my thighs were overly tight which was throwing my hips out of whack and messing up my lower back. Rolling out was like a hard massage releasing tension while adding flexibility and pushing out bad blood like a sponge when sore. You can do this everywhere on the body and get results for different pains. Worth a shot. That being said, if some pains are undeniably excruciating, stop, and go to a doctor. Or Brian Carroll.

    This is the absolute best possible advice out there for lifters with back injuries - and I've learned this through painful experience.

    Is there a ‘love’ button instead of a like? This is great info! I could write a book on my experience with this same topic. Over many years I eventually figured out what Brian is teaching, mostly by accident. Wish to God I would’ve had this info 20 years ago.
    Keep up the great content! 👍🏻

    Excellent info!!
    Reminds me of a lecture from my back surgeon, 20 years ago. For sciatica he insisted on 8 weeks of physical therapy first and then chiropractic. Fortunately the combination of the two treatments kept me from the operating table. A common question in the chiropractor's waiting room...how many back surgeries have you had so far ??? One person mentioned five, soon to be six! Follow the guidelines here, do whatever it takes to keep from repeated back injuries. Surgery is not a permanent fix IMO.

      @@dinnybam2057 they are but in this case of back pain, it might trigger your pain since there is a certain degree of back flexion involved. The focus should be on anti flexion and anti rotation, so goblet squats and suitcase carries are good like mentioned in the video. I'm sure the next video that will come out will adress some excercises.

      @@BrianCarroll1306 I'm 63, have my chronic injuries and am still quite able bodied. I get what you're communicating, thanks. I find that exercising dragon flags, landmine anti-rotations, etc are really important to maintaining the strength that allows free movement. I like Iyengar yoga because you practice pulling your bones into your joints, and stay for extended time at the zone of proximal development in your flexibility while strengthening everything (including balance and awareness as well as muscle strength) that keeps flexibility useful. I'm glad I found this kind of yoga 40 years ago and combined it with lifting and life. Note quite sure what a "Nocebo" is, but I really appreciate your post. Thank you.
