I’ve been a gym rat for almost 20 years but was plagued with low back pain. Couple times a year I’d throw out my back and spend weeks rehabbing. Finally got MRI and found 3 herniated disks in low back. Doc suggested surgery but I wanted to try to fix it myself. The cause was the typical weak core from only doing “abs” and never truly training core. What helped me was kettlebell swings, suitcase carry, windmills, and band twists. 7 years later and haven’t throw out my back once and I’m deadlifting more than ever. Started slow with a 30lb kettlebell but now I’m mostly using 70lb. They aren’t the sexiest exercises but they work!

I once read an interview with the legendary boxer Kostya Tszyu. He mentioned when he was young kettlebells where quite popular in his home town in Russia. He said one thing he use to do was pick up a 16kg kettlebell and walk around with it, do a few moves with it here and there, the thing was, he didn’t put it down for 1 whole hour. I tried this and after 10 minutes that 16kg becomes very VERY heavy. I ended up just holding it with both hands to the front, to the back, no more swings or snatches or presses, I was just dying holding it standing there. I ended it at 20 minutes as my forearms and grip died. The results after a few weeks of this? I felt like a Brick House, my forearms became really thick, my grip was crushing, both muscle and cardio endurance shoot up, also surprising weight loss, it literally makes you shredded and wiry strong AND enduring ( I need to go back to that training 😊 )

Was diagnosed with spondololysthesis when I was 18. Doc said I can prevent surgery maybe until I am 30. Told me to stay lean and train core, but said, no tennis, no football, no heavy lifting. Started to train Capoeira anyway for 8 years, 5 years was training 4 times a week. Problems got better, fought trough a lot of backoain still. Transitioned to cycling, whilst keep doing basic exercises, basic but hard movement and bodyweight exercises. Now 42, 5.8, 160p no surgery, no pain when I keep up with some crunches and yoga. Always doing a straight push up from time to time to check my core and make the nerves and muscles remember the set standart. My advice, itˋs not the amount of training you put in, itˋs consistancy and muscular balance.

I’m just getting into your channel, really like it! This video was a great summary of the core and value of KB’s and basic movements. The part of the core that’s easy to forget, the most basic movement: breathing! The ability to relax the core and breathe deeply while not load bearing, the ability to breathe deeply while under an asymmetrical load like a 1 arm carry or windmill, the ability to breathe deeply while performing complex, multifaceted, dynamic movements such as running . . . Adding the dimension of breathing into the functions of the core changes so much, and really sheds light on the question of what is happening (or at least - what do we want to be happening) in the core in any given movement.

Here's a story as well as (maybe) an idea to incorporate into your drawings - core is kinda sorta absolutely essential for swordfighting. You are, after all, swinging a long, one kilo bar of steel around at as great a speed as you can. This leads to you developing a solid core as you go about your stabbin' business, and can lead you to adopt a smug sense of superiority over all those weak people with weak cores doing weak situps. Then you decide to try out sword and shield fighting and find out that shield is at least four times heavier and ten times unweildier than a sword and *you* were the weak one all along. A quick test determined that this exercise can be done just fine with a heater shield, so I have a new form of productive torture to inflict upon myself.

Been trying to invent a good rotational back exercise and previous attempts havent gone this well.

Kettle bell swings are the only exercise to ever give me severe back pain to the point where I can’t even get up from sitting without pain. It took me a month to heal from a session I did. And you might say bad form, whatever, I know how to hip hinge. I’ve done heavy deadlifts for years without getting hurt. I hate to say it but I’ll never do kettlebell swings again despite how great people say they are. I’m good. I’ll do something else.
@moversodyssey3 күн бұрын
Well, you know your body best and everyone is different. All I would say is I've had similar experiences with other exercises that later treated me very well. The first time I used an ab wheel I pulled a muscle in my abdomen and hurt my back, and I had been strength training for years at that point. After a few months off I tried it again and I was fine. This has happened to me with other exercises that are new as well. And even though deadlifts and swings are both hip hinges, they are still very different in their execution. I've seen many people be great at one and terrible at the other. So it may have just been a shock to your body. On the other hand, I tore my acl and meniscus years ago and no matter how many times I try curtsy lunges and no matter how perfect I make my form, it still kills my knee every time. It's just not right for my body.
@jvogler_art47083 күн бұрын
@@moversodysseyyeah the ab wheel is super sketch as well. I never got hurt on one because I tried it and immediately knew it wasn’t for me. I’m like 6’3” and lanky so that’s probably why exercises like ab wheel and the swing are riskier for me because I leverage out my body and back with my long arms on the wheel and the swing puts the weight way out in front of me. I remember the exact moment when the kettlebell swing dropped me to the floor. It was the last rep of the set and it was on the essentric portion. I actually was working a labor job at that time too and had to go in the next day and luckily all I had to do was walk and do some light work which I think actually helped me get better. But I was sore for weeks. I think after watching this video it might’ve been a ql muscle strain. That’s a muscle I’ve never trained. But when I mess up my back like that I get spasms that are basically like being stabbed. I now know about ab stability exercises that hit these muscles like the ql and help prevent those strains.. Also lunges don’t work for me either. My knees are shit. Like the worst.

I highly recommend anyone struggling with a weak core or core related pain to get into pilates. It was invented for wounded world war 1 veterans to help them recover from injuries. I've done all kinds of working out and physical labor over my life and pilates has been the best thing i've ever done for core strength and chronic pain relief.

This is a great video. I just would like to see the movements performed. He explains them well but you never know what a "normal" pace/rhythm should be.
