    I definitely could have used this video a few years back when I had a lot of muscular lower back pain from DL and Squats. My then doctor ordered an MRI and discovered mild to moderate arthritis in my neck. No solution for my back pain other than to stop lifting heavy weight of course.

    I wish I had found you years ago I might have been able to avoid some of permanent muscle damage I have which resulted from nerve damage to my bowels from 5 bouts of gastric flu which caused me to loose 200lb in 9 months. I went 7 years without picking up a barbell as it was deemed not suitable by my doctors. Since I started picking up a barbell again I got off over 23 tablets. P.S. thanks for the comment the other day on dead lifting with a tummy tuck. I went and watched Alan and Austins videos and I managed to get my back flat and my dead lift went up instantly so thank you so much.

    Intense isometric exercise for tendinopathy! That is good to know. I will be using that info. I damaged a proximal adductor tendon - perhaps from not keeping my knees out enough during squats. In my case dropping the weight to 80% my 5RM and keeping the technique correct has helped. I am a scrawny 49 year old and just a few weeks into the novice program. I have been astonished with how much muscle and strength can be gained in such a short time. Great program. Great podcast.

    Thank you so much Jordan and Austin. Truly appreciate the information. I think that pain is such a central topic for people in the strength training world. It is comforting to hear the methods for assessing pain and working through what we "can" do and a big takeaway for me is to not worry about it so much and realize that most aches/pains from training are just tissue/joint adaptations. Taking time off from doing any type of training and taking pain meds is definitely not the answer and hearing it from 2 doctors I trust is comforting to say the least. Thanks again for taking the time out of your day to provide this type of information to the world. :)

    @barbellrehab guys I loved this and agree so much with the content. With regards to tendinopathy and non specific overuse aches and pains I reckon the work of Tim Gabbot with the acute: chronic workload stuff fits in well here especially with those who went too aggressive in the L.P. What I have found as a super effective way for these is using a protocol similar to Ebony Rio et al for TNT training (basically tempo squats, presses, chins even dead's etc) as it is almost like a programmed deload of the same movement with plenty of time to work on techy if that has contributed but it also ensures that the chronic workload for that lift doesn't drop thereby minimising risk when the comp lift is reintroduced.

    This is good stuff guys. I pulled my lower back a few weeks ago (awful cant bend over or put on sock without sitting down pain) and did no gym activity for about two weeks. Went back when pain had subsided and tried jump back into it and re-aggravated it doing deadlifts. Went back to the gym two days after and have been conservatively rehabbing it doing squats and deadlifts progressively loading each session, so far, so good.

    Jordan and Austin - Thanks for all the info. You guys do a great job. I came across Rip and Starting Strength and you guys several weeks ago and started lifting again using the SS principles. I had left knee replacement surgery 5 years ago and have issues with scar tissue which hinders full range of motion. I squat as best I can but I cannot get all the way down. My thought is to keep working at it and see if lifting corrects it. Any thoughts or suggestions?

  • @alexfournier6512

    This was a great video. I've been struggling with injuries and can see how I fell prey to my own nocebo! I convinced myself after a shoulder injury that I needed to rest for weeks on end, essentially quitting lifting altogether for 6 months, and starting everything over from scratch, out of fear of re-injury, not knowing which direction to go in, etc. Doctors, physiotherapists, all say the same thing: stop everything. Question: For people who suffer from repetitive stress injuries due to repetition in work, where no alternative work can be done, what would you recommend the approach be in rehabilitation when a tendinopathy can be attributed to repetitive stress? My situation is that I'm a hardwood flooring contractor. I'm either on my hands and knees, or standing, swinging a mallet, or bent over operating sanding machines. Day in, day out. I've only ever been told to stop working, which is out of the question.

    so a good example might be: hey Jordan&Austin, something in my left knee clicks after I squat half way into bottom, right above my tibia or below my patella, this has been happening for a couple of years before I started lifting , but no pain during workout or in life. I do feel pain under the tibia tuberosity, usually after a lot of walking or a pick up basketball game, don't seem to be related though. what's the click about? should I be concerned? additional info: male,mid 20s, 6'0, 235lbs, overweight. That would be a answerable question, right?

    So let's say one develops tendonopathy symptoms while on SSLP. If intensity appears to be both the cause (with frequency) and the cure would it make sense to back off the working sets for the affected lifts a significant amount and work back up with very small jumps to try and prolong the healing process?

    With regards to the fatigue factor being a risk factor..... You guys are thinking it's more the intensity (weight %rm) closely correlated to injury risk not volume load (sets X reps X weight %rm) correct? Intensity is more related to central fatigue and volume load to peripheral /tissue fatigue i think I remember so is the suggestion to monitor the intensity and minimise central fatigue as opposed to minimising the volume load (peripheral fatigue) or both? in regards to overuse injury management? Eg. Someone has lateral hip pain in squat withSquats of 3x5 @160kg with a 5rm of 170kg. Therefore 800kg/set X 3 =2400kg@90%rm So therefore this would be an example rehab protocol take him to 5x5 pin squats /tempo squats or normal comp squats etc @ 100kg = 500kg/set X 5 = 2500kg@60%rm. Then just linearly progress the intensity. Even though the volume load is higher coz the intensity is less tissue healing / adaptation should still occur? Maybe periodise in some singles or doubles at the threshold intensity (160kg) Or would you suggest to back off both the volume load and the intensity and progress both so the tissues are subject to less total stress to begin with?

    Ruddager Matthews I'm no expert, in my uneducated opinion I would say if there is anything you can actively do other than keep your weight healthy is focus and have a strong valsalva maneuver as it will in theory keep your abdominal pressure pushing against your abs back and obliques rather than mostly through the pelvic floor. Again this is entirely conjecture.

    Does Austin's rationale for isolation work after an injury if the lifter is shifting technique to avoid the affected area also apply to non injury situations? For example, if I tend to shift more weight to my right leg in the squat, should I do single left leg work to address that deficiency?

    Micah Neely Nope. I never use them in that situation, because single leg work isn’t going to fix your shifting. Even in the context of injury I’m using them for the absolute shortest possible amount of time (maybe only a couple sessions, at most) to facilitate getting them closer to the primary movements again.

    Jordan... pull the mic a bit closer to your face, to get better sound; especially as you speaks a bit too fast. A speech ENUNCIATION class might help slow down and "draw" the words out as you speak, you guys are docs and some of those words are not familiar for most of us... EN-UN-CIA-TION Just compare how you answer rapidly to how you slowed down and spoke at 20:00 - 21:00 ; each of those words is well defined and understood, I know I know you cannot speak like that all the time, but the ENUNCIATION part of it is what I am talking about. PLEASE, don't take this as mean spirited, I love your podcasts, if constructive criticisms like this are bothersome, I rather shut up so you guys keep going with it.
