Lower back pain can show up a lot of different ways.

For some people it is flexion sensitive.
 For others it is extension sensitive.
 For others it is more about load, fatigue, or repeated irritation.

The presentation can look different, but there are still some key principles that help you keep training, keep progressing, and slowly build your way “beyond it.” 😉

This is just a small piece of the bigger picture.

DM me the word BACK if you want help figuring out what your version of lower back pain might need.

Pain is rarely about finding one magic exercise.

More often, it is about learning what your pain is telling you, adjusting what needs adjusting, and zooming out enough to see the full picture.

Correctives matter.
 They are just not the whole story.

Sometimes it really doesn’t mean anything.

Before you felt with the big injury, before so much social media info, you just didn’t care about the little aches and pains as much.

I’m NOT saying to just ignore it all.

I’m saying, check yourself sometimes. Make sure you’re not gaslighting yourself into thinking that every little ache or sensation means that something is broken.

Rehab is a starting line. Not the finish line.

If you have been stuck in that weird middle zone
feeling better, but not fully trusting your body yet it usually means you need a plan that rebuilds capacity, not just symptoms.

Save this. Share it with a training buddy.

And if you want eyes on your exact situation, DM me REHAB and tell me what is flaring.

Golfer’s Elbow 😭

(This is the pain on the pinky side of the elbow)
 Elbow tendinitis (either side) can be SUPER stubborn.

I think it’s because most of the time people think it is just an elbow problem, when in reality it’s probably multifactorial (multiple reasons/areas).

That tendon on the inside of your elbow is basically a middle man for
…Grip …Forearm flexors …And upper arm/shoulder

So when something up the chain is not pulling its weight —> your body finds the next best option.

And a lot of times that option is over gripping or asking for more movement from the blow.

Examples
—> Shoulders that do not feel stable during pressing or pulling so you death grip to create stability

—> A stiff upper back so you steal motion from the shoulder and elbow

—> A cranky neck so the whole arm becomes more sensitive and reactive

—> Or sometimes your grip is just underprepared for the volume you are throwing at it

That is why rest alone does not always fix it.

You can calm symptoms for a week then flare it right back up because the compensation pattern is still there and the workload is still too high for that tissue right now.

If you are dealing with a cranky elbow (inside or outside)… 
TELL ME
— Where you feel it
— And the top 1 to 2 lifts that set it off

I will help you narrow down what is actually driving it.

Modifying your lifts is the win.

It shows you’ve gained the clarity, confidence and control to be able to make effective decisions

It means you can still train hard, and feed your body a proper stimulus, consistently, instead forcing a variation that hurts and then creating a flare up.

It means that even though pain still exists, it no longer controls every training session.

If you can learn to make effective modifications, manage stress, progress appropriately and keep your head on straight, you are winning.

Want to learn how to do all of that and finally move beyond your pain?

Shoot me a message and let’s chat. 🫡

If you want to get back to training safely and effectively, you need a Pain-Free Training Environment.

A Pain-Free Training Environment doesn’t mean avoiding certain exercises or movements.

It means creating a mental and physical space where your body feels supported and capable while you’re training.

Start by Identifying Your Non-Negotiables.

What does your body need to feel safe?

This could be using specific equipment or choosing lower-impact exercises like single-leg exercises instead of double-leg exercises that irritate your knees.

Next, Focus on Range of Motion (ROM). You want to avoid pushing through pain and stiffness.

Instead, find the range of motion that feels right in each movement and work within that range so you can build strength safely, and without feeling pain.

From there, you’ll want to Control the Intensity, especially at first.

Start slow and build up. When your body feels comfortable with the current level you’re working in, gradually increase the weight, reps, and sets.

You’ll also want to Incorporate Movement Variety in your training.

If one exercise feels off, switch it out for another.

This will help mix things up so your body can stay engaged and move without overstressing it.

Lastly, you need to Set Up Your Mindset.

Mental barriers can be as real as physical ones when it comes to pain.

It’s easy to assume that every twinge or discomfort means you’re going to injure yourself again.

But remember, whenever pain comes, it should be a SIGNAL for you to adjust what you’re doing, not a FAILURE.

Establishing a Pain-Free Training Environment will help you see movement as something you can control.

And once you do that, you’ll be closer to moving beyond pain.

Feeling like you’re getting nowhere?

Change what you’re looking for, and you’ll find the proof of progress.

02/12/2026

Sometimes the worst part of pain isn’t the pain.

It’s losing the one thing you used to cope.

If training was your therapy, and now you can’t train, you don’t need motivation.

You need a new outlet and a clear on ramp back.

DM me “ON RAMP” if you want help building it.
