[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Did your doctor recommend for you to avoid back exercise? My doctor told me to actually start doing more deadlifts and squats so I can build up my back muscles to make up for my weak spine (DDD). If they did recommend for you to stop squats/deadlifts, you can do leg press for quads, leg curls for hamstrings, and hip thrusts for glutes. Hope this helps.[/quote] Yes. I've had multiple disc herniations over the years. I am just completely done with any form of barbell squat or deadlift because of the tremendous pressure it places in your spine even with good form. It's basic biophysics, no matter how good of form you can use, you are still placing a load on your back that will be felt in your spine. Even front squats place load on the lower spine. Doc said quit it already or play roulette with more pain.[/quote]
