Is anyone doing STS with a lower body injury? If so how are you rotating the discs? I twisted my ankle pretty badly about a month ago, and I don't think I am ready to do any weight bearing one legged exercises on it yet. I was thinking of doing the bonus floor work segments instead of the leg discs, until I am fully healed. Not sure how often or where I should add them into the rotation though. Any help would be greatly appreciated
My lower body injury is my lower back. So I'm still doing the rotation but with modifications on some of the exercises.
For deadlifts I'm doing the ball roll-in option.
For some of the heavier rows I'm doing them either one arm at a time, or supported on a bench.
For squats, I've found that if I use dumbbells and support them on my hips I feel less pressure on my back.
Everything else is @ bodyweight (in my case that's considerable lol)
Since I'm still in the endurance set, the weights on the other exercises are not so much of a problem.
I still have plantar fascitis that flares from time to time so I always use heel insets in my shoes. Gotta love the aging process.. but it's better than the alternative Good luck
Thanks for the reply Sorry to hear you are having injury problems too. It's so frustrating when you want to do something and you can't. I hope you heal soon.
I think I'll try doing the leg workouts, and just use really light weights and modify when needed. I just don't want to slow down the healing process, but I need to do something for my lower body.
