I have a question about this episode Avoid Injuries and Increase Physical Fitness | Doug Kechijian and this Overcoming Back Pain. I'm a fairly new resistance trainer with less than a year of experience. In the past 7 months, I've hurt my upper back/neck, which has healed through rest and chiropractic care. More recently, my lower back/sciatic nerve has been bothering me. I don’t feel like I’ve been squatting or dead lifting anything super heavy, and it doesn’t hurt while I am doing it. I also have worked with a trainer in the past, so I don’t feel like my technique is that off. I really don’t want to keep stopping my workouts and lose momentum. Should I just go lighter until I stop having the discomfort? Are there any other suggestions? I’ve honestly considered physical therapy to see if I’m moving in a wrong pattern.
