I blew a disc back when I was a kid (15) on the leg press machine during P.E.. So here's a little advice for you younger guys / gals out there.

Don't go overboard pushing too much weight until your body fully matures!!! Use free weights whenever possible!!! And when you're starting out, get someone who really knows what they're doing help teach you...not just someone who thinks they know what they're doing, but someone who REALLY DOES KNOW WHAT THEY'RE DOING!!!

Of all the posts I've written, this may just be the most important one!!! There aren't many things worse than having a screwed up back...except being a kid and having a screwed up back!!! With everything I've been through, if I could just keep one person from injuring their back, it would honestly make me happier than I could possibly relay to ya's with simple words!!!!!!!!
