AAS for sciatica pain relief?

[Usmc88]

At first I thought I could work through it but as soon as I felt ok to lift I would re-injure it. I finally completely stopped lifting weights after a month and took a good 4-6 weeks off and focused on therapy, nutrition and core strengthening. Brought the heavy weights back in gradually and I've been good ever since

That's good news. Thanks brother. I've already been out since the 17th of last month. 2nd time in 6months i hurt it at the same point of my rep doing dead lifts. Gonna take quite awhile away from dead lifts this go round.

Avoid them or use the trap bar. You can built a good physique without them though. Be careful racking and unracking heavy dumbelss. Not keeping core tight and being careless will aggravate it easily. Work on static core exercises like planks during your down time

@Usmc88 practice vacuums for core control and strength. Once you get it down right you'll be able to feel all the deeper muscles of your trunk squeezing around your spine, it's a pretty damn useful exercise but it does take practice

I read an article about that a couple years ago. I forgot about it. I think i strayed away from core work too much. Appreciate the reminder
