Hey everyone,

I just wanted to take a moment to give a huge shoutout to my amazing physical therapist, Eleanore! 💪

On my 60th birthday, September 6th, I unfortunately herniated my L3-L4 disks, (likely was occurring over time but I think the final culprit was the awesome jump I did while wakeboarding, lol. But it wasn’t an immediate jolt of pain. Just at first felt like a sore muscle, but kept getting more and more painful daily. But I did get rather amazing air- lol). My MRI revealed a rare condition (only 3% of cases, per my doctor after he saw the MRI) whereby the nerves are being pushed in a weird direction being compressed, causing excruciating pain that shot down from my lower back to my butt, thigh, and knee. For the first 10 days, my pain level was a constant 10+ in the mornings—I literally couldn’t walk. This requires that I can only use “William’s flexion protocol, posterior pelvic tilts, lumbar stabilization, quad strengthening”.

But thanks to an epidural a week ago and 5 incredible PT sessions with Eleanore, which included personalized rehab exercises, dry needling, cupping, and Indiba treatments, I’m now waking up with a pain level of just 3. As I go through my day and do my exercises, the pain subsides even more. 🙌

I’ve also started swimming daily (not permitted to kick yet) and I'm up to 20 laps in our pool. I’m hopeful to get back to regular weight workouts soon. I was encouraged by Eleanore today to try sit down bike with back support at low level for 10-15 minutes.

I’m beyond grateful to have Eleanore (amazing physical therapist) guiding me through this recovery journey. Here are some photos of me during my cupping and Indiba sessions. (I didn’t get any snaps of the dry needling though!)

Thank you, Eleanore, for being the best physical therapist ever! 🌟

Feeling accomplished today! 🏊‍♂️ Swam 16 laps in the pool wearing a 2.5 mil wetsuit, and I did it all without kicking! Started off with a sweat session in the sauna, then jumped straight into the cold pool and pushed myself to the limit. Despite losing some body mass and muscle, I'm taking it one day at a time. Grateful I can still use my upper body to keep swimming! 💪✨ #NeverGiveUp #SwimmingGoals #OneDayAtATime #StayStrong #backinjury #physicaltherapy #divetalk

Back Recovery Journey: Day 1

Today's goal was 10 laps, but I managed to push through and complete 18! My physical therapist advised me to stop once I felt any pain, so I did just that. This is just the beginning of my recovery journey. While my doctor and therapist have advised against any weight lifting for now, swimming has been given the green light. Taking it one day at a time. I will come back stronger! 💪 #RecoveryJourney #Day1 #SwimmingTherapy #OneDayAtATime #dive #divetalk #mares #physicaltherapy #waterheals inspireatlanta.com/

Snapped this picture with my wife, and another with the guy who claims planned this amazing wedding (he did not).

You guys often point out how much you love how different/opposites we are and that makes the show interesting.

Here’s one of those examples, I love baseball, I love everything about it, Woody would prefer listening to a chess match on the radio than coming to enjoy a ball game with his best dive buddy. You guys need to encourage him down below in the comments to come to a game!

While you’re at it, in your opinion, what is the worst sport? And why Soccer? 🫢

Happy Wednesday y’all!

Gus
P.S. Let’s go Bravos!
