How can I talk to you?

You're an inspiration Jamie! I have been feeling really great after being in insane AS pain for over a year. But my biologic is finally doing wonders and I recently returned to the gym to restore my weight training routine. Regretfully, I was too ambitious and strained a hip flexor probably from doing leg presses and squats even with light weight, so I am still healing from this. But once I'm healed and can stand on my feet, I will return with a vengeance so that my 58 year old self can keep up with you.😅 Thanks again for posting your inspirational videos!😊

I have AS and im 58. I'm happy to report that I have been able to restore my weight training routine but with lighter weight. The movements as you demonstrate feel really good. However, I was able to weight train again only because my body has had a great response to a biologic called Amjevita which I believe is similar to Humira. 😅😅😅

Same here.

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

Tell me your full story.how to healing from AS

Pain started in my knee, then my hip, then debilitating low back pain at night time every single night for years. I was also diagnosed with bursitis, bone spur, sciatica, and piriformis syndrome by multiple doctors and specialists. Finally diagnosed with AS. Yoga and movement, as well as healthy diet has helped immensely with pain and mobility

Gaining flexibility, mobility first thing in the morning is challenging. What the best stretch exercise start off with before any others?

Change your diet

Flexibility isn’t just about stretching. 👀 Take it from someone who was stiff as a statue who lives with inflammatory arthritis #ankylosingspondylitis 😮 Static stretching plays an important role in flexibility development, and some people can make amazing progress with flexibility solely through static stretching. Take, for instance, most physical yoga practices. Some individuals can simply practice yoga and achieve significant flexibility gains. Unfortunately, I wasn’t one of those people. While I made some progress with yoga, it wasn’t enough. The real game-changer for me was focusing on strength through deeper ranges of motion, building end range strength, incorporating various forms of flexibility training, and understanding how the nervous system plays a role in movement. I’m still on the journey, but the progress I’m seeing now is undeniable. 💪 Flexibility isn’t just about being bendy-it’s about building strength, control, and connection. (What’s your biggest challenge when it comes to flexibility? Let me know below!)

Same bro started with pain in my hips when I was 18... Didn't get diagnosed even after multiple x rays and MRIs but when my spine got stiff then I got to knew it was AS... First time when doctor said I have AS I WAS 31.. NOW I AM 33 STIIL TRYING TO FIGHT IT WITH yoga and some ayurvedic medicine.... This chanel also helpful and makes my moral high.... 😊

Thanks a ton

diagnosed this condition one month ago i’m suffering allot of pain I don’t know what to do

Thank you, end of diagnosis here… hopeless

How do u manage ur pain ??

Do u have as?

You said that crunches are not a good thing for AS. But what about barbell squat and roman chair back extension?

Beware of anyone promising a quick fix for posture-they’re probably just trying to sell you something. Posture is about so much more than a “perfect” stance-it’s influenced by muscle strength, joint mobility, and your nervous system. It takes time and a balanced approach to improve. In this video, I show an example of how I work on posture, but remember, it’s important not to pathologize it. Focus on feeling strong, stable, and comfortable in what’s natural for you.

Great vid! Luckily I got the right advice about the importance of keeping a good posture early on and to this day I do daily short exercises throughout the day to support my back. Over 30 years on ,I'm standing tall 😊 Keep up the good work,love your videos.

Cheer~~~make or become stronger.😊

Yes I want to learn please 😢

What is an AS?

Very helpful but can I encourage you to speak less slowly. Communication on a sound bite clip is not the same as a personal conversation

Do u lift weights

I’ve always felt this stretch wasn’t a good idea for me. I’m glad I stumbled across this. Thanks for posting

Diet for AS....

So you can't excercise in AS and uvietis flares??

Facts

Totally agree. Choose a weight that you can do with controlled movement and full range of motion. Get the surrounding muscles and ligaments and tendons strong.

These are so helpful, thanks Jamie!

Thank you Jamie. keep up the good work

I have SI pain while running, what should one do for this situation?

Thank you for the advice.

Hlo sir you take any medicine for as please reply

Training with arthritis isn’t always a straight path, but it’s all about keeping that upward trend. 📈 The key is to listen to your body and adapt day-to-day, week-to-week. Avoid the “boom and bust” cycle-some days, you won’t lift as heavy or push as hard, and that’s perfectly okay. Remember, our ego might push us to always do more, but real progress takes patience. We often overestimate what we can achieve in 6 months and underestimate what’s possible in 10 years. I’ve learned this firsthand with my own journey managing ankylosing spondylitis. It hasn’t always been smooth, but after a decade, I’m stronger and more flexible than ever. Embrace the journey, even when it’s not perfect. 💪

You take any medicine on hlab27 positive or not pls reply sir

Saya ingin bergabung saya dari Indonesia dan mengidap Ankylosing Spondylithis

Thank you for the great information:) I get uveitis attacks almost all the time , I was hospitalised for 10 days in 1988 and had steroid injections into my eye and despite my recent diagnosis with AS I don’t get the Biologics ( Humira) because I couldn’t tolerate it. I’m constantly having to use steroid eye drips that have caused cataract in both eyes Lately I’m seeing blue auras with constantly seeing flashes of light and it’s not just my eyes that are constantly painful , I am having migraines every day, I had an internal bleeding on C5 of my spine in 1993 which paralysed me and I had to undergo a laminectomy operation Which helped me to walk again after 3 months There are no many things wrong with my body that’s a wonder how I’m still alive! I should’ve died but something wants to keep me alive! , thank you for your video:) Wishing you all the best 🙏🏻
