Welcome to the board

I can relate with the disc problems, I also herniated my L4,L5 discs and have had to modify my workouts. Just take it slow and listen to your body, you'll be surprised at what exercises you can still do but again the trick is paying attention to form and listening to your body. Building up your core and activating it during your exercises will help with the lower back as well.

Thanks for the welcome and feedback! I agree on taking it slow. I know nothing in this hobby comes fast and so I'm taking it one day at a time. I'm sure I can lift and push a lot more, but want to do a gradual increase even if it means it takes me a bit longer to get where I want to be. The important thing for me is not to re-injure my back.

Thanks again.
