It is important for negative perceptions to not become reality. Injuries are real and can be devastating, sometimes with the largest causality being your mindset. You are NOT your injury or any setback. These are temporary states in a much longer journey.

As Sam Spinelli aka The Strength Therapist said regarding disc herniations:

"One of the most commonly asked about subjects and one that there is a lot of misinformation on. Many people who experience back pain believe their pain is due to a disc herniation; many people who have back pain will have an image that finds a disc herniation; many people who find out they have a disc herniation will suffer greatly and feel disabled.

This is a vicious and unnecessary cycle that we have teamed up to help educate the public on. .
Disc herniations are very common and occur in both symptomatic and asymptomatic people. We see that disc herniations can come and go, with around 80% having complete resolution without medical intervention.

Pain is a complex experience and difficult to say one thing causes it. A disc herniation may contribute and sensitize the region, increasing the nociception and pain experienced. It may be a confounder and not involved – we don’t know. What we do know is that what someone believes (such as believing their pain is due to the disc herniation) matters much more. This can have a huge impact on the persons pain and the suffering he/she experiences.

People are quick to get scanned when having back pain. It’s unclear if it really is of benefit for the situation, and it can actually bring negatives."

There is an amazing doc on Netflix right now called Westside Vs. The World. Those guys are psychos, but also roided out of their minds.

Good message that so many people need to embrace! Play the long game! Lifting is as much a mental exercise as it is a physical one!

We need someone in their 60s or 70s and had been lifting their whole life and had some injuries to explain if those old injuries affected them ad they got older
