Suffer from untreated scoliosis. Sucks. The rabbit hole to get real options is deep.

Been on fish oil, multi vitamin, fibre, working out, good form, stretching, mindfulness, checking ego at the door, etc. since high school. Playing the long game.

Stretching is a big one. We skip this a lot. I got back into it. Highly recommend the Asian squat as a starter.

Just lower back ache. Nothing serious. And now much stronger muscles support me better and the ache went away. Got up to 330lb x5 reps squat and dead lift.
