Just doing light stretching daily and therapy 3 times a week.
Back is finally starting to feel better.
I don’t hurt every morning when I wake up.
I have 8 weeks of spinal decompression ahead and we shall see how it goes.

Good luck with the spinal decompression. Keep going for the best you can

Friday: Zone 2 training on the treadmill.

Saturday: total body strength training using Nautilus equipment followed by a GXP session on the treadmill.

I have 2 degenerated disks, one in the lower lumbar region and the other in the cervical region. After years of pretty good health, the lower back is twinging. Like it’s ready to go full spasm, but hasn’t completely hit. Adjusting exercises and hitting the ibuprofen for a few days.
