    Yoga flow for your Lower Back Pain !

    Desparate to identify, and cure a deep tailbone pain.

    Posted: 14 Oct 2020 02:47 AM PDT

    I have been trying to push myself for my deadlifts these few months.

    Last week, I was doing a little heavier and I think I pulled sthg. It recovered, but I was dumb and tried to go back at it last Saturday and today. On both occasions, it was fine at first, but I tried pushing again and the "pull" came back. The pull feels very deep and I couldn't pinpoint it if I tried. It feels generally closer to my tailbone and the "V" bone at the base of my spine. I can't really trigger the pull-pain when I massage it with foam rollers or a ball, but certain stretches really brings the pull-pain out. (I elaborate on the stretches that really hit the spot later)

    I don't know how I can fully recover again.its really only a problem when I deadlift and squats

    After reading around, I hear it's sthg to do with my coccyx possibly? I'm trying to do more stretches for my glutes and lower back. The stretches that really make me feel the pull are child pose stretch, knee to chest stretch as well as pelvic tilts (especially when I'm standing).another stretch is when I lean forward and hug my thighs at a seated position. To be honest, the stretches feel really good and I almost like the ache that comes from stretching that part of my lower back. But the fact that the pull came back after my last two sessions of deadlifts is making me very frustrated.

    I'm gonna stop deadlifts for a week now. Again, it isn't delibitating on normal days. And it really only affects my deadlifts and squats to a lesser extent. I'm hoping to be able to full recover after this break week because I'm on a strict training regimen and I'm desperate for any targeted advice on how I can quickly recover (eg specific keywords I should search for, particular stretches)

    Is a 10-20 minute mobility or flexibility routine once daily enough for progress?

    Posted: 13 Oct 2020 07:05 PM PDT

    I mostly do the routines that Tom merrick or strength side put out once daily. I wasn't sure if I should do more than that or not. I'm not trying to do splits or anything like that, just wanna be flexible and mobile enough for injury prevention and be able to do advanced calisthenics

    More intensive split poses

    Posted: 13 Oct 2020 03:36 PM PDT

    Hey, Reddit. Female here. I've been stretching and working on my flexibility for a couple years now, and I can do a pretty impressive oversplit on both sides. All three of my splits are pretty good, if I do say so myself, but I'm getting slightly bored with the pose. Does anyone have suggestions for split variations to spice up the move? My spine is also bendy, so I'm good with back-intensive positions. I've already achieved a king pigeon split, a kookaburra split, a twisted kookaburra, a floating split, and a needle. Looking for something harder. Any ideas?

    How to Get More Flexible After Giving Birth ?

    Posted: 13 Oct 2020 11:54 PM PDT

    Your postpartum recovery won't be just a few days. Fully recovering from pregnancy and childbirth can take months. While many women feel mostly recovered by 6-8 weeks, it may take longer than this to feel like yourself again. During this time, you may feel as though your body has turned against you.

    THINGS TO AVOID AFTER GIVING BIRTH

    • DO NOT GOOGLE EVERYTHING
    • DON'T USE TAMPONS
    • DON'T HAVE SEX
    • DON'T ASSUME YOU CAN'T GET PREGNANT
    • DON'T STRAIN WHILE YOU POOP
    • DON'T STRAIN WHILE YOU POOP
    • DO NOT QUIT TAKING YOUR PRENATALS
    • DO NOT "DIET" TO LOSE THE BABY WEIGHT
    • DON'T DRINK EXCESS ALCOHOL OR EAT EXCESSIVE FISH WITH HIGH MERCURY CONTENT
    • DON'T START STRENUOUS EXERCISE
    • DON'T WEAR TIGHT CLOTHES
    • DO NOT GIVE UP COMPLETELY ON BREASTFEEDING
    • DON'T UNDERESTIMATE THE EFFECTS OF SLEEP DEPRIVATION
    • DO NOT FEEL EMBARRASSED BY ALL THE CRAZY POSTPARTUM EMOTIONS
    • DO NOT ALLOW YOURSELF TO BE STEAMROLLED – YOU ARE THE MOMMA
    • DON'T SET YOURSELF UP FOR FAILURE WITH CRAZY EXPECTATIONS
    • DON'T BE AFRAID TO ASK FOR HELP

    My entire body is one big knot apparently

    Posted: 12 Oct 2020 07:00 PM PDT

    I don't know where to post this, and if it would be better suited in another sub, I'd be happy to post there. I have been walking ~5 miles everyday for the past couple of years. So the other day, I walked about 10+ miles. My legs have been super sore since then so I went to get a massage. The last time I went, the masseuse remarked that it looked like I was using one side of my body more than the other. This was before I informed her that I had hip surgery on my right hip and could only use my left leg for a couple months, she said it made sense, since my body was clearly compensating. After healing, i continued my everyday walks. So I go and get a massage today and the guy keeps jokingly remarking that I was "making his job hard" because I was so tight all over but esp. in my legs and my upper back. He said he was surprised I didnt come to him with lower back pain. He said my chest muscles were tight, causing me to push my chest forward to maintain my posture, but instead of maintaing my posture, I ended up hiking my shoulders up to my ears. Basically my body is totally out of alignment starting with very tight hip flexors due to my accident, leading up to my chest, causing my posture to lurch forward. I said all that to say, he said he would lay off the walking if he were me and for two weeks use that time doing static stretches and going to the jacuzzi and sauna. My question is, does stretching really work? Am I screwed? there was basically no point on my body that wasn't tight and painful/gristly. Will jacuzzi and sauna really help? What would you do if you were me? i just want to be limber and not crooked and bent all up like a gnarled pretzel.
