definitely agree with everything eric said.

hit up www.ericcressey.com and www.robertsontrainingsystems.com ...and look up their neanderthal articles...all of them....and check out your posture...bad pelvic position can definitely give you some back problems. for the last year or so, i've had inflammation in my lower back anytime i've done any lower back work...and a bulging disc...but since i've been working on my pelvic position...it's been going away. on thursday i pulled conventional for the first time in like 3 months. and my lower back was not happy with me...that little burning sensation in the lower back was back. and i was pissed. and then i stretched and foam rolled the shit out of my priformis. pain gone

anti rotation barbell is amazing.

weighted planks are awesome. when i pulled on thursday...i've never had my back feel that rigid. and i think it's mainly due to the weighted planks.

disc degeneration sucks. one of my friends discs are really bad and he's only 23. it's too bad they can't... just...fill 'em up with good fluid again
