I dont know if I'll be able to overcome it. Been two years off and on some good times here and there but im not back to my old self. feels almost like a death sentence
@@Yeomannn it really does. Do not lose hope. I believe the only answer to see a McGill clinician & read the Back Mechanic. It will be costly but you will have to find a way to save the $. We will get through this. We’ve been taught some real life lessons dealing with this. StAy strong
Been to a few PT’s and never seen the bird dog taught like this. It’s usually here is a diagram and I’ll be back in 5 minutes. I wish I had this video.
Pain and Injury is the great corrupter! Truer words never spoken. I think its also true for one's mental state. I'm sixty eight and its a shame this knowledge was not readily available or even known forty years ago. Just awesome content.
Did these for over a year. Read Back Mechanic and Gift of Injury. Had a video call with Brian Carroll. Saw a McGill Master Clinician in person for the 3 hour assessment and follow ups. Spent thousands of dollars. All this did absolutely nothing for my L4/L5 disc bulge. I am still in daily pain.

Don't know whats wrong but myself generated back pain into my healthy and pain-free spine after starting these Big3 after watching them on squat University channel. So now I have almost stopped trying every exercise I come to know
These are phenomenal dealing with my first low back injury… 700 pound deadlifter mixed with 2-3 hours of commuting plus career in law enforcement wearing gun belt and vest.. first time feeling a”tweak” 8 th day of being hard to walk.. all these videos and info helping my recovery
Makes me want to cry too. About 8 years ago my balance started being weird and it was after I had horrible back pain for years. Nothing that ever needed surgery. No one believes me or knows why my balance is off. At least none of my doctors. It isn’t coming from my head and the back doesn’t hurt much any more. I weigh 126, no diabetes, no heart disease and I’ve walked or ridden bike for transportation for years until lately. I am getting these books and I’ve watched Dr McGill’s videos in the past. Rewatching them now.
When Brian says, 'you need to seek out the best people in the field" then he goes on "not the people with the most followers on social media." = Mic drop.
Got the Back Mechanic with video modules, definitely worth the extra for the video. Have identified my triggers and am learning not to aggravate my injury.
Dr’s don’t care about people in pain, they just give medicine that doesn’t work and send people on their way, some years ago I hurt my back on the job couldn’t stand up straight. MRI said stenosis, facet joints, basically they don’t know. I was only out of work for a year sent back when it was nothing else they could do, now just live every single day in pain, and can barely walk 10min without having to sit, use any and everything to help me move through life, tables, counters and cane. Just waiting to be gone and hoping it’s not a long drag out thing. Pain changes who you are and being in pain is just exiting it’s definitely not living and only those with money can get help that’s needed.
Hi Dr McGill, or anyone that can help. These past few days I have been studying your work and gained tons of great information. All the core exercises I will be doing from now on. I am an athlete and Im big in football, Also i had a knee ACL injury and i recovered from that without surgery and now I'm great and stronger than ever, however i need to maintain a lot of hamstring strength and stiffness. I do a lot of hyperextensions and Nordic curls and glue ham raises and goodmorings. I have read some of your work on the hyperextension and how it puts a lot of pressure on the discs but i couldn't find a alternative. What are exercises other than the bird dog you do with athletes for the posterior chain that can be overloaded for athleticism. Should I stop doing hyper extensions? And also are hanging leg raises bad for your spine? Thanks
I feel like he's over extending his lordosis during the deadlift. Should the lower back be straight or should you keep that natural curve in your lower back when deadlifting?
not sure if I'm understanding correctly. Did Dr McGill recommend ditching the straps? As in, no straps when deadlifting? Does that mean you'd do alternate grips? hook grip? Isn't there a point when the grip becomes the bottle neck?
Tells layne for years his squat and deadlift form sucks. Fucks his back up and when doctor tells him the same..he folds like a baby lol Layne for mayor! Lmao
I want to cry watching this. Dr McGills work is making me believe I can overcome my back issues.
You can do it. Hang in there!
Really? I’m crying now because of my pain

@@Yeomannn you won’t. McGill sells false hope. Save your time and money and go see a real doctor, back surgeon.

Wordless value. Killer video. Thank you.

T.athletic You can do a banded bird dog, bird dog with ankle and/or hand weights to increase the overloading important for athleticism
This content isn’t getting the attention it deserves
bruh this is amazing. Gna keep coming back to it
I've. Watched this video at least 3-4x lol this is literally Dr. Stuart McGill the LEGEND giving an assessment in real time
Where’s Part 1 & 2?
nice
Does anyone know how these principles apply to shooting a basketball with optimal muscle activation?
No this is related to deadlifting and squatting with back pain.
I feel like he's over extending his lordosis during the deadlift. Should the lower back be straight or should you keep that natural curve in your lower back when deadlifting?
Safe position for his discs though
not sure if I'm understanding correctly. Did Dr McGill recommend ditching the straps? As in, no straps when deadlifting?
Does that mean you'd do alternate grips? hook grip? Isn't there a point when the grip becomes the bottle neck?
Double overhand to lock in the lats and get symmetry. Then hook grip for heavy sets. Pick your battles at higher weights.
tell me why at about 10:40 when hes doing squats he has what seems to be a pretty bad hyperextension in his low spine?
It's protecting his lower back from entering flexion, which places more stress on the discs.
hes a baddie
Kids and backs.. jeez
Tells layne for years his squat and deadlift form sucks. Fucks his back up and when doctor tells him the same..he folds like a baby lol
Layne for mayor! Lmao
How is layne now?
@@fleadoggreen9062 does he even lift bro? Lmao
@@jeffsetton9553 u tell us. Keep hating.
I was with you, all the way, until you suggested that I give my hard earned dollars to Bezos' Amazon.
You can buy the book straight off his backfitpro site instead.
You can buy it else where. You do not know suffering if you actually give a shit about where you’re purchasing the book.
@@joes1941 Joe how are. You feeling now?
