Hope someone can help, I compressed t12 verebre back in December...started STS 6 month rotation in April. Have no trouble with the weight(on mesocycle 2 week 1)LOVE IT!!!!!!! Her's the ?, in mesocyle 3 you do squats w/ barbell, well I tried weight on my shoulders like that and just can't do it. will I get the same results with holding dumbells at the side (like meso 2) and a weighted vest. for me that will be about 60 lbs.? Thanks for any info.
This is just an opinion here, as I am not a medical doctor. To me, the movement is the same (the squatting portion) so I don't think it would be any different. I would definately listen to your body with heavy weight and your previous compression fx. did you just have to rest or did they do a vertebroplasty or kyphoplasty? Personally, I would take it step by step. If it hurts one way, don't do it that way, and if it doesn't work the other way (with the db down and weight vest) maybe try to plyo option. I hope that helps
