This is your warning sign to quit compulsive exercise ‼️ ⚠️: i gave myself ischias and screamed my lungs out

So yeah long story short: I walked and walked on zero rest days and lack of sleep. I was already so tired but you know ‘I had to’ and then when I was trying to get another step in, my hip just locked and was like: yo girl we’re out.

At first I thought: well that’s inconvenient and I walked back home. Then I woke up in the middle of the night screaming.

The nerve in my lower back that goes through my hip and into my leg got stuck which gave me the most excruciating pain I’ve ever experienced. According to doctors it’s a pain that’s equal to giving birth but then it’s ongoing, 24/7, you can’t escape. You can’t lay down, you can’t stand, you can’t sit, everything hurt. They can’t do anything for you other then give you pain medication which you need to build up. My husband had to carry me to the toilet, to the bed, everywhere.

So this is your warning: take rest, don’t walk 30k a day on 1 hour of sleep, it’s dumb, your body will be done with you at a certain point.
