You can work your legs. I recommend it to keep from developing inconsistencies between your upper and lower body. Just stick to machines, that don't load your back. I thought the leg press would be safe when I had back issues but it seemed to hurt my back at the bottom of the movment. My doctor told me if it didn't hurt it was ok to do. So try light weights to determine which machines are safe and progress from there......CAREFULLY

Yeah, Leg press is ironically very rough on your lower back unless you drop your poundage in half and make it strictly a quad movement.

Your doing it wrong then:yodawg:

Ive pulled muscles in my back a couple times while lifting heavy and everytime the angle played a part
 
Through all the posts no one mentioned the most beneficial thing. Rest. Rest the tendons, give them a break. Your going to develop tendonitis if you do not manage it now, and may even experience bursitis.

Anti-inflammatory medications, resting it, and replacing lifting using it with dynamic stretching for a week or two, then ease back into it.

I am not here to throw a sales pitch for a supplement company. I just want to see you heal. I have achilles tendinitis in both my legs. Its no fun.

Fish oil and cissus will help. But only a little. The pain is your body saying "Something is wrong! Stop!". Don't ignore it.

I have to agree here...rest is the best remedy...in particular long uninterrupted sleep.

You should look into the root cause of your inflamation
 
I did that during my vacations. The problem remained. I'm only lifting 3 times per week, about 50 minutes. I rest alot

I'm taking cissus powder for about 5 days and 80% of the pain is gone. I know that the problem is not solved but cissus seems to be working. I will use it for 2/3 months. The cause of the injury is gone now because I'm no longer doing the heavy daily work I was doing while back

I was going to mention that with chronic inflammation due to repetitive use, rest doesn't help that much... rest helps more for acute conditions, but chronic ones need deeper care, which is why I recommended the therapies in my previous post.

Not trying to plug products, but from personal experience I think the best stack to use is Joint Force and Osteo-Sport. It worked wonders for me when I could afford it. The two together I felt like I had never had any previous injuries. It took a while for those feelings and effects to kick in, but when they did it certainly helped me greatly.

Plug away, lol Jointforce is a staple in my medicine cabinet and was before I was a rep
 
muad33b said:
I second that, I too was using JointForce (on myself and friends, and recommending it) long before I was a rep.

It is the good sh*t. However, I think it really is best used in conjunction with Osteo-Sport. Everyone has their own opinion, but I really believe there is no better 1-2 punch for making you feel pain free.

Take a look at Flexible by Fahrenheit nutrition. We have a lot of logs already done on it and some going now.
thanks

Well 3 months have pasted and I'm very happy with the results because the pain went away. I can curl heavy again... However I will keep using cissus because I want to prevent any future situation and it has no side effects

Also there are other benefits of Cissus supplementation such as suppress appetite, weight loss, and lean muscle mass, and lower blood sugar.

Yea don't ever stop
 
I've also used Devil's Claw (i love the name more than anything) with pretty good success. When stacked with Cissus..it does a bang up job of knocking down inflammation, then healing.

I remember that was in Dorian Yates Projoint as well....i miss that product
 
Joint help knocked out my shoulder pain nicely. Joint force i use in addition to joint help with acute injury. Perfect combo imo!

Though not touted as such, UR Spray has helped me out immensely with my chronic knee pain and my brother who hasn't been able to work out fo quite over a year due to chronic shoulder pain has been using UR Spray for a couple of months and is now back in the gym with no pain.

I personally like cissus, celadrin, turmeric and bromelain...very synergistic effect

Good combo. I've used the celadrin topical lotion. Bromelain certainly has its benefits but it needs high doses to be effective.

definitely have to agree. I notice joint help helped with some issues I was having with my knees, since I've had tendonitis for a couple of years. Definitely a significant difference in how my joints feel
