Back Problem

Recommended Posts

Hello all

Ive got a rather bad back problem where the top half of my spine wont move and everynow and again i get some aches and pains in the lower half of my back. Im doing loads of things to try and get this sorted but it will (at the least) take around 5 years! Just wondering weather this will limit me so that i cant ride at all. My phisyo says it should be alright as long as im not "jumping off bulidings". Just wondered what people think i should aim for.

Thank you

Jack

I'd try to do as much stretching as possible to get flexibility back. Like most things though it'll take time before you see big improvements, but you should end up with less and less pain and start to feel smoother on the bike. I ruptured a disk in my back more than 10 years ago, did a lot of stretching and swimming to get it back to normal and haven't even had a twinge out if it for years.
