Y'all should of stocked up. Xi Jinping is scared of Trump, so Xi is arresting all the illegal exporters and sending them to the gulag. Tracy is probably in some North Korean labor camp as we speak

They aren’t reselling hyb I don’t think, they’re both using the same source and reselling that. They do some reimbursement for janoshik tests. I don’t mean to trash ssa with that comment either, they’re are generally ok but I was just tempering expectations about them being better than q, they have their own checkered history.

Got it, ty for the clarification.

Physical therapy got me helped a lot. BJJ actually really improved my back, the core stability I got from it is hard to beat. With that said, I pushed everything too far and ended up hurting a different disk. My L5-S1 had a 7mm protrusion 6 months before I started BJJ but you can see in my MRI above it is doing pretty good. Just pay no attention to my L4-L5. lol

Thank you for sharing brother, yeah your MRI looks familiar lol. I'll see if i can dig mine up and share as well. I haven't heard of BJJ but i will look into it for sure. I tried Mc Gill method and Mc Kenzie method with mixed results. Just hoping I don't have to deal with this shit for the rest of my life.

Trying to avoid surgery at all costs, I've read about this procedure in South Korea where they insert a ballon and inflate it in order to create separation between your discs. I've worked with PT's but finding a good one covered by insurance in the states is easier said than done.

BJJ is brazilian jiu-jitsu. It was more of a preventative measure for later on.

Spinal decompression creates space between your disc. Most chiropractors have the table. They strap your upper body to the table and have a harness around your hips and it pulls you apart. I am doing that right now. It was something I did for my L5-S1 too.

 

[MissedArmDay66]

How much time did you have to take off? I do think a good pt is a must for a bulging disk.

I also use spinal decompression. My neck was fucked up when this 300lb college wrestler was breaking my turtle down. I was posted on my head and he went full send with his weight forward. It was my fault. I knew how big he was and I should not have been posted in my head. Anyway, a few sessions of decompression had me fixed right up.

Initially i took a few weeks then went back and didn’t roll for a couple of weeks but then after one day of live rolls i was worse off so took another couple of weeks and came back too soon. I kept coming back to soon and eventually it got worse when a big kid stood up in my guard and started stacking me pretty good but his feet slipped on mat and basically all his weight (prolly 230-240) rolled my back and then i couldn’t do a damn fwd shoulder roll without being in pain lol. I finally decided to take time off so i did 4 months without going to class and rehabbed to pretty hard. I have a mat room in my shop so i would train a bit with my wife and kids occasionally but it was just me showing them various technique. Feels great now, probably will start competing again this year

Placed an order on the 7th of January via WhatsApp, I got confirmation from a “Nia”

I’ve sent 3 messages over the last couple of weeks asking for any sort of update, and no answer. Wish I would’ve kept myself updated reading all these comments about a damn exit scam. Really hoping they’re just chilling for Chinese new years. Not getting my hopes up too high tho. Never had a big issue with QDS until now. Anyone wanting to place an order beware. I’ll be back here to say if I ever heard back.

For those of you whose packages are getting stuck with no movement, I 100% believe this is a customs issue not specific to QSC. I got tracking for an order I placed with ASC on 09 Jan and have seen absolutely no movement at all. Normally I'd have it by now.

According to them customs enforcement has ramped up and about 30% of packages are being held.

Well, QSC is the only Chinese source that is having packages ripped open by customs. Unless for some reason no one is reporting it in the other threads. I don't think a 30% "ramp up" would have a 80% effect on one source. I suppose customs could of targeted a specific shipping company that no other Chinese source is using.

Getting ready for worlds and then planning to go to pans in March is how I went too far this time.

Glad to hear you are back at it. I am losing my mind not being able to train. Probably why I am shit posting on here so much. lol

Not an exit scam he literally told everyone to stop sending money. Chinese 5-0 are giving him grief. May or may not be back only time will tell.

When did he tell everyone to stop sending money? The WhatsApp contact gave me a quote for my order and took my money on the 7th of January. I do hope you’re right. Thanks for the response

That is a lie. There is other sources on this board that has multiple people claiming packages stuck in customs still to this day around the same time frame.

Really? I haven't see them posts. Is like one or two per source or 80% like this source?

Old price list w all the SKUs. Boom. Thanks to @mok4315 for mentioning the existence this price list and reminding me that I never delete anything.

Do you happen to have one with raws, tabs and oils? TheLobster is trying to decipher some raws codes.

Sigma had a ton of reships recently from a few promos back. All around the end of December 20th give or take. Their discord and telegram had multiple people saying it was bound up in customs although reships got sent out and through just fine. Both were using yun.

Sciatica is an absolute bitch, have herniated discs in L5 and S1. What are you doing to deal with it? Would love to stop having to get injections every few months.

First and foremost, I'm sorry you're dealing with it. It really sucks to be in pain all the time and affects your life in terrible ways.

Mine was L5/S1 as well, not burst, but squished out. I was able to get it managed by doing a combination of stretching and being careful not to sit too much or in the wrong kind of chairs. Most of the improvement I think was simply becoming more aware of what was triggering it. When I lift, I use a belt for 1 plate and up for any lift where a belt would help.

NSAIDs are still useful for flare ups which are unavoidable. There's a spine clinic in the area that has a protocol they run, it's high dose NSAIDs (~3g/day) for a week, then PT after, which include stretching and behavior modification.

I avoid using NSAIDs chronically, I'd rather save that liver bandwidth for other things.

Surgery is the only thing that fixed my L4/L5 permanently. Microdiscectomy. Shaves off a sliver of the disc that’s pressing against the nerve. Had my surgery 9 years ago and I have no issues.
