IML Gear Cream!
Physical therapy

Leg press
4 plates on each side for 4x8 (eccentric;60-75 sec)

Step ups
35lb dbs for 4x8 (full)

Single legged getups
BW for 4x10 (christ)

Leg extensions
70lbs on each side for 2x12 (30+ sec)

Physical therapy like a mofo
Theracane
Bands


Whether i do legs or not, my leg still hurts so....go where the pain is!
As i sit here, my side does hurt though. Not a fantastic sign, plus when i did the theracane, i put it in my back and felt the pain sensation down the leg, same as if i didnt.
 
Physical therapy
SMR

Tried some decline db press....nahhhh

Decline bench
Reps of 3 up to 295lbs
255lbs for 6x3 (75 sec)

Unilateral decline db press
80lb db for 4x8 (75 sec)

Bilateral hs row
2 plates on each side for 4x8 (30-45 sec)

More therapy
SMR, Bands, etc


I was thinking....decline benching would help with disc issues. But, damn, the setup of getting into position...it hurt bad. Im talking about the act of 'sitting up and down.' At the midway, i feel radiating pain. Thats why i eventually did unilateral but that was very risky. I hurt, regardless. The decline was better though. Odd how i did 245 for 8 reps, but 275, 285, and 295 was hard at 3. I decided to go down and do a volume based workout that im used to, but it may had been too many. Decline dbs were hard, regardless of my sciatica.
Ill say, when im laying there tho, ZERO pain. Cuz shits decompressed!
By the time rows came around, i was spent. Total workout was over an hour and half.
 
Physical Therapy with new band

Step Ups
40lb DBs for 5x5

Eccentric Leg Press
5 plates on each side for 5x5

Single leg get ups
BW for 4x10

More therapy


My god, man wtf is going on? The step ups are easy, but this sciatica isnt liking when I put my right foot down first.
I did a lot of nerve flossing and I never feel it in my lower back but I do in my ass, where that piriformis is! Doing what I can, but its scaring me. The leg press for example was something I was nervous about but I was completely fine.
 
Physical therapy


Standing oh db press
50lb dbs for 4x8 (full? Last set was 10)

Weighted chins
35lbs for 4x6 (full?; FPs)

Physical therapy


I don't need to really input this one cuz my leg was killing me. My lower back feels fine, but God knows where this is stemming from so compounds will have to wait.

I was just way too distracted. If i can't walk or roll in bed without wincing, i should not be doing anything but physical therapy.
 
Nerve flossing

Unilateral hs row
3 plates on each side for 4x6 (1 min; strapped)

Decline bench
245lbs for 4x6 (60-75 sec; failed after 4th?!)

Some core/kb/physical therapy
Theracane
Nerve flossing
Bands


Just couldnt stay away. Whether i skip the gym or dont, im still in pain. Last 3-4 days have been rest + advil and i dont feel any better, so may as well exercise.

...and see the loss of strength. Ugh, on my last creatine too.

Stretched


Got some conflicting news yesterday. First chiro visit and he says i "fit the profile" for surgery. Then the oral surgeon says im feeling pain because im still in the early stages of recovery and that my hip muscles are still healing. So...we got a surgeon speaking on a different field vs a chiropractor...

Back is feeling better but when i did the supinated cross overs, something 'moved.' Likely fine....
I missed these! Did them because my wrist is sore from the pressdowns.
