Today we tackle the perennial question: “Will my MRI change what I should do?” Short answer: rarely. Imaging can explain quirks (like why a funky position eases symptoms), but it doesn't replace learning safe, aggravation-free squats & hip hinges that you already do in daily life. We show how to run “hedged experiments,” record your reps to spot errors fast, and why belts/braces create false security. Plus: sleeping pain (win the day, not the night), DOMS vs relief tools, decompression & inversion (relief, not strength), deadlift progressions, why most adults don't strength train (and why that's your edge), SIJ vs lumbar myths, and smart upper-body work that spares your back.Start here → https://backinshapeprogram.com/start/Highlights:

In Episode 248 we give a clear tour of the program: where to find the Courses (Phases 1→4), how the Core Relief Work runs alongside training, how to use Strategy → Tutorials → Live Routine, and exactly how often to do the Phase 1 live workout. We also cover: belts/braces (why they don't protect L4/5–L5/S1), a safe bed-to-stand sequence, doorway-squat calibration for long femurs, how to pace training days (e.g., hamstrings after a hard day), sitting at work, and loads more member Q&A.

Pelle was in the best shape of his life — but also in the worst pain of his life.A competitive athlete and coach, Pelle suddenly developed debilitating pain from an L4-L5 disc bulge and L5-S1 herniation. He couldn't sleep, couldn't shower, and was told by doctors that his condition was permanent and would require surgery.Instead, Pelle found the Whealth Limitless Program — and in just 10 weeks, he went from lying on the floor unable to move to 95% pain-free and training again.In this episode, Pelle shares how he rebuilt his body, regained hope, and redefined what healing actually means.

Today's live sorts popular “lower-back-pain stretches” into two buckets: the ones that feel good but slow healing (e.g., knee hugs/forward-flexion flossing, long dead hangs) vs the ones that actually help (towel or bed decompression done gently, with a neutral spine focus). You'll learn why repeated flexion eases symptoms but strains the injured L4/5–L5/S1 tissues, how to set up towel decompression safely (3–5 min), and when a dead hang is simply too aggressive for a recovering disc. We also cover sit-to-stand cues that stop the “lightning bolt” when you get up, mattress myths, hydrotherapy pitfalls, why planks provoke discs, and common anatomy variants (lumbarisation/Bertolotti) that don't change the rehab plan.Start here → https://backinshapeprogram.com/start/Highlights:

Sitting often makes sciatica feel instantly better because a posterior pelvic tilt opens the nerve exit holes—but that short-term relief can reinforce the problem. In today's live, we explain what's really going on at L4/5–L5/S1, why repeated flexion (knee-hugs/child's pose) “feels good but harms,” and how to sit smarter (reclined, supported neutral) while you rebuild capacity. Then we show how to prevent those “getting up = lightning bolt” moments by learning neutral-spine transitions and using the Core 6 (Dead Bug, Marching Bridge, Squat, Hip Hinge, Step-Up, SLHH) to restore load tolerance. Member Q&A covers spondylolisthesis, night flare-ups, “squat on the toes,” deficit deadlifts, flights, Roman-chair/back extensions, and more.Start here → https://backinshapeprogram.com/start/Highlights:

Today's live is all about stabilising the lumbar spine after a disc injury or sciatica. We show you how to keep the spine still while you move, then build from the floor up with the six essentials: Dead Bug, Marching Bridge, Squat, Hip Hinge, Step-Up, and Single-Leg Hip Hinge. You'll learn why these beat endless stretching, how to judge progress (by capacity, not symptoms), and how to avoid common traps (e.g., relying on belts/braces).Q&A covers: knee pain with squats (how to modify), whether hip thrusts or heavy shrugs make sense (and when), “centralisation” misconceptions (don't wait to start rehab), decompression/IDD nuances, towel decompression comfort over time, and using load as your “healed for what?” yardstick.Start here → https://backinshapeprogram.com/start/Highlights:

If your back always feels tight, heavy, or compressed, these 4 simple decompression exercises will help you feel lighter, looser, and finally in control again. Whether you're dealing with an L4-L5 or L5-S1 disc bulge, herniation, or sciatica, decompression can be one of the most effective ways to reduce pressure on your spine and calm your nervous system. In this video, you'll learn: ✅ 4 easy decompression exercises you can do at home, no equipment needed ✅ How to safely relieve tension in your lower back without stretching too far or flaring it up ✅ The best way to reset your nervous system so your spine feels supported again ✅ Why traditional “traction” or hanging decompression can sometimes make things worse This isn't just about temporary relief, it's about teaching your body to trust movement again so you can bend, lift, and live pain-free without fear of flare-ups. If you've tried everything (doctors, therapy, meds, injections) and still feel stuck, this is where lasting relief starts, by resetting your body's protection system and rebuilding confidence in your movement. -WIlliam LOVING THIS CONTENT?

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain (and maybe the hospital gown) on something I rarely go into detail about... my long, complicated, sometimes comical history with fourteen surgeries. Yep, 14. From having a tumor removed at age three, to getting breast implants (and later explanting them), to a full-on spinal disc replacement… it's been a journey! Spoiler alert: almost all roads lead back to my back. Whether it was compensating during workouts, posture shifts from surgery scar tissue, or the ripple effects of certain cosmetic procedures, neurological issues and more…  my spine has carried the load... literally and metaphorically... for decades. I open up about: Why I got each surgery (the real reasons, not just the Instagram explanation) What I regret, what I don't, and what I really want women in midlife to know before going under the knife How I finally ended up needing my L5-S1 disc replaced (ouch… and also, wow) The things that are ACTUALLY helping me recover like red light, peptides, compression, hydration, and walking (even when it feels like dragging a noodle-leg down the street) If you're navigating surgery, chronic pain, or even just frustrated that your body feels like it's falling apart faster than your favorite jeans... this episode is for you.

Austin was just 18 when doctors told him he'd never lift over 50 pounds again. Doctors told him surgery was inevitable.Diagnosed with two disc bulges (L5-S1 + L4-L5) and sciatica, he faced constant back pain and the looming pressure of surgery. He tried physical therapy, YouTube rehab videos, injections, and everything the traditional system had to offer but nothing worked.Then he found the Limitless Program and was pain-free in 5 weeks (program here: https://spreadwhealth.com/limitless-program)In this episode, Austin shares how he completely rewired his mindset around pain and movement. He breaks down what Limitless taught him that PT and YouTube never could - like how pain is information, why there's no one “right” way to move, and how he stopped living in fear of his body.What started with being able to load the dishwasher pain-free turned into walking 9+ miles a day at Disney, reclaiming his lifting goals, and helping others do the same as a strength and conditioning coach.Topics covered:L5-S1 disc herniation and chronic back painHow to heal without surgeryWhy physical therapy and YouTube rehab failedThe mindset shift that changed everythingHow Limitless gave Austin his life backFear of movement vs. confidence through guidanceHow pain is just information — not a life sentenceIf you're searching for:-How to fix an L5-S1 disc bulge naturally-Healing sciatica without surgery-Back pain rehab that actually works-Why physical therapy didn't work for me-How to stop fearing pain and start healing-Functional rehab for athletes-Real stories from people who avoided spine surgery…this episode is for you.Our Free Low back relief series: https://www.spreadwhealth.com/free-low-back-programOur FREE Hypermobility guide: https://spreadwhealth.com/hypermobility-free-resourcesChapters00:00 Doctors Said I'd Need Surgery01:42 What the MRI Showed: L5-S1 Disc Bulge03:05 “Surgery, surgery, surgery”05:53 Walking Out on Traditional Healthcare07:50 “I Might Never Back Squat Again”09:15 Depression, Isolation, and Daily Struggles12:00 Finding the Limitless Program13:40 First Big Win: Loading the Dishwasher Without Pain15:43 Pain Sucks Physically — But Destroys You Mentally17:57 “Everything I Have I Attribute to Limitless”24:45 I Couldn't Even Drive or Go to the Store44:11 I Don't Fear Pain Anymore — I Fix It1:05:11 Disney Trip I Thought I'd Miss — I Walked 9 Miles a Day

But what if I told you that these strategies might actually be keeping you stuck in pain? I lived with chronic low back pain for years— L5-S1 disc issues, degenerative discs, sciatica, stiffness, and flare-ups. I tried everything: doctors, medications, even scheduled my first round of injections. Some things helped a little, but the pain always came back. Why? Because I was only treating symptoms, not the root cause. In this video, I'm revealing the truth most doctors never explain: why medications and injections fail so many chronic pain sufferers… and what to do instead if you want to actually heal. This isn't about a quick fix or trendy stretch. I'll show you the holistic approach I used to finally reduce my pain sensitivity, build tolerance, and gain real movement back—without drugs, surgery, or fear of flare-ups.

That it's “normal with age” and irreversible? If you're stuck in pain despite trying physical therapy, meds, injections, or even surgery—you're not alone. But here's what most people don't realize: Pain from disc degeneration isn't always caused by damage. It's often driven by a hypersensitive nervous system, muscle guarding, and fear-based movement patterns that keep your body locked in protection mode. In this video, I'll show you a new path to relief that doesn't rely on fixing the disc itself—but instead focuses on reducing the sensitivity of your pain system, building movement tolerance, and restoring full-body strength and confidence. It's the same process I used to heal my own disc issues and help thousands of others do the same. You'll learn:- Why degenerative discs don't always equal pain- How to stop triggering flare-ups during everyday movement- The 3-phase process of the Hybrid Relief Method: Desensitize → Build Tolerance → Reclaim Resilience Gentle movements to start today—even if you've been in pain for years Enjoy! -William LOVING THIS CONTENT?

Try this morning mobility routine, perfect for Herniated/Bulging discs to relieve pain and get lasting relief. ►► Free Daily Disc Herniation/Bulge Relief Routine: Reps, sets, and best modifications for you included! https://fitness4backpain.mykajabi.com/routine?video=WvY8nEVzMKA ►► Book a FREE Relief Strategy Session with me https://fitness4backpain.mykajabi.com/SPAP?video=WvY8nEVzMKA If you struggle with morning back pain — especially from L4-L5 or L5-S1 disc bulges or herniations — this daily routine is designed specifically for you. The early hours of the day are often when disc-related back pain is worst. Why? Because your spine is more sensitive after hours of inactivity. But doing the wrong morning stretches can actually make it worse — increasing pressure on your discs and irritating nearby nerves, especially if you're dealing with sciatica or degenerative disc issues. In this video, I'll guide you through a gentle, intentional morning mobility routine designed to: - Reduce disc pressure at L4-L5 and L5-S1- Calm an overactive pain system through specific movements that target the nervous system- Restore flexibility and mobility without triggering flare-ups- Create a healing environment for long-term recovery This routine is based on the Hybrid Relief Method — a neuro-mechanical system I use with students to move from constant flare-ups to confident movement. We don't just “loosen tight muscles.” We retrain the brain and body to feel safe again — using desensitization strategies that blend pain science, biomechanics, and graded exposure. Perfect for:- L4-L5 disc bulge exercises- L5-S1 herniation mobility routines- Sciatica relief in the morning- Safe spinal decompression exercises- Morning stiffness and low back pain sufferers- Avoiding aggressive stretches that can worsen disc pain If you've been told your pain is “just something you'll have to live with”… This routine is proof that movement can be medicine — when it's done right.

After suffering an L1 compression fracture and two disc herniations (L3-L4 & L5-S1) with nerve root impingement, Whitney, a 36-year-old firefighter and mother of three, found herself unable to lift her toddler, sneeze without collapsing, or perform basic duties on the job. She was taken off work placed on light duty, something every firefighter dreads.Whitney tried everything: three ER visits, multiple specialists, injections, chiropractors, red light therapy, acupuncture, DNS, and more. Despite all her efforts, she was told she might need epidurals, medical-grade cement injections, or even surgery... yet she still wasn't getting answers or real solutions.Frustrated and at a breaking point, she found the Whealth Limitless Program:

In this episode, I sat down with Dr. Grant Elliott, aka RehabFix, to dive deep into something every entrepreneur battles at some point: back and neck pain. As someone who's dealt with a ruptured C5-C6 and L5-S1, I wanted answers—and Grant delivered. We talked about how movement, not surgery or rest, is often the real cure. He broke down why those “random” injuries (like mine from rolling in bed or standing up on a plane) actually aren't random at all, and how small daily habits stack up to chronic pain. If you're an entrepreneur who travels, sits too much, skips workouts, or just wants to future-proof your spine, this one is a must-listen.

Take The FREE Quiz and be given the BEST starting point to start seeing relief based on your results! http://www.fitness4backpain.com/quiz After being diagnosed with degenerative disc disease (DDD) and a ruptured L5-S1 disc, I spent years chasing all the wrong solutions. I tried everything—core exercises, physical therapy, injections, and even daily chiropractor visits—but nothing gave me lasting relief. Worse, every time I tried to get back into working out, I felt like my spine was a ticking time bomb. I was afraid to bend, afraid to lift, afraid to even move the wrong way. So, I did what a lot of people do after a spinal fusion—I avoided movement altogether. But here's the truth: Avoiding movement only made things worse. That's why I created this video—to give you the perfect fusion-friendly workout structure that you can follow to help you build strength, regain confidence, and move pain-free, WITHOUT damaging your spine or living in fear of injury.

But once I found the right way to train, everything changed. I started moving without fear. I built strength in ways that actually supported my spine. And most importantly, I got my life back. This video will walk you through a safe, structured workout routine designed specifically for people with spinal fusions—so you can get stronger, move pain-free, and finally stop living in fear.

Instead of these terrible core exercises, do these instead for your herniated disc! ►► IS YOUR BACK PAIN FIXABLE? Take The FREE Quiz and be given the BEST starting point to start seeing relief based on your results! http://www.fitness4backpain.com/quiz If you've been dealing with chronic lower back pain from an L4-L5 or L5-S1 disc herniation or bulge, you already know how frustrating it can be to find the right exercises that don't make things worse. Unfortunately, a lot of common core exercises can actually increase your pain and slow down your healing! For years, I did all the “right” things—physical therapy, core workouts, stretching, medication—yet my pain never fully went away. After being diagnosed with degenerative disc disease (DDD) and a ruptured L5-S1 disc, I kept searching for answers. What I learned? Some of the most recommended core exercises were actually setting me back! If you've been told to “strengthen your core” but still feel stuck in pain, you need to know which exercises to avoid—and what to do instead. What You'll Learn in This Video✅ The worst core exercises for L4-L5 or L5-S1 disc injuries✅ Why traditional core training can increase pain and sensitivity✅ Safer, more effective core exercises that support real healing✅ How to rebuild core strength without fear of making things worse Many people with herniated or bulging discs feel trapped between pain and inactivity. They're afraid to move, but they also know they need to build strength to support their spine. The problem? Not all core exercises are created equal. If you're still doing exercises like sit-ups, crunches, or certain planks, you might be unknowingly keeping yourself in pain. The good news? There are better ways to build core strength that don't involve bracing, straining, or worsening your disc injury. After years of failed treatments, I discovered that pain-free movement is possible—but it starts with doing the right exercises and avoiding the wrong ones. Who This Video is For This is for you if:You suffer from chronic lower back pain due to a disc bulge or herniationYou feel afraid to move and don't know which exercises are safeYou've tried injections, surgery, medication, or PT with little successYou want a drug-free, holistic approach to pain reliefYou dream of getting back to hiking, kayaking, playing with your kids, or just living pain-free Enjoy! -WIlliam LOVING THIS CONTENT?

In this episode of the Whealth Podcast, Camille shares her inspiring journey of healing an L5-S1 disc bulge and overcoming chronic back pain and sciatica—after the traditional medical system failed to provide answers or give her lasting relief. From trying PT, chiropractic care, injections, and more with no success and spending thousands of dollars, Camille hit rock bottom, wondering if life was even worth living. But through the Whealth Limitless Program, she reclaimed her life and reduced her pain in just 30 days. In 5 months of Limitless, she became pain free. Today, she is traveling the world and no longer has sciatica or chronic back pain.
