Lifting Injuries
How to Get Rid of Lifting Pain Without Medications, Surgery, Or Skipping Workouts!
You’re out on your usual run or in the gym doing a set when you’re suddenly hit with what feels like a lightning bolt of pain. “Oh man, this really hurts,” you think, “but I’m sure it’ll feel better by tomorrow.”
You go to bed later that night, waking up the next morning with the same pain. It has been bothering you for several weeks, and you can barely lift without feeling pain.
You go to the doctor, and they tell you to ice it and rest and stop weightlifting because it’s “bad for your body,” They may even give you anti-inflammatories and pain relievers. You lift even though you don’t want to because it’s what they recommend.
You eventually start feeling a little better and are ready to resume training and lifting. Unfortunately, once you start getting back into it, the pain returns, leaving you frustrated and unsure of what to do.
This Is The Dangerous Cycle In Which Many People Find Themselves.
What Makes Us Unique?
If You Have a Lifting Injury, Here Are 7 More Reasons Why It May Be Lasting Longer Than It Should:
1. You expected it to go away on its own, but it didn’t.
2. You went to the doctor, who told you to rest and take pain relievers, but the pills didn’t help, and as soon as they wore off, the pain returned.
3. A family member or friend told you that everyone gets pain from weightlifting and that you just have to accept it.
4. In the past, you tried other Healthcare Professionals or a physical therapist, but nothing they said or did seem to help.
5. You tried YouTube exercises, but they either didn’t work or worsened your pain.
6. You thought it would be a good idea to rest because your pain was so severe, but it only made you feel stiffer and tighter.
7. You decided to get a few “massages” in the hopes that they would relieve your pain, but they made you feel nice and relaxed and did nothing to help you in the long run.

Rian C.
I had an amazing experience with Dr. Kendall after thinking that I wouldn’t be able to continue in powerlifting after a back injury. Since he is located right within Kenmore Barbell and Fitness, it was easy and convenient to schedule an appointment around my normal training hours.
Dr. Kendall saw me for an evaluation, listened to and addressed all of my concerns, prescribed the appropriate exercises, AND followed up with me after the appointment to check in and answer questions in-person and through his client portal. The entire process was extremely professional.
I was back to lifting and preparing for a powerlifting meet that same week! I would recommend Dr. Kendall to anyone that is serious about their rehab process and wants to get back to performing at their highest level!
