Hoyt while I agree with you that it is probably the best therapy to get out and walk, hunt, etc..., but that may be a bit risky if he is fighting with Workers Comp..
... Imagine explaining that one in court[8D]!!!
Gd Luck with everything 74, I will share as many good times as I can with ya!!!

Sounds like you have yet to have surgery. GO TO A NEUROSURGEON! stay away from ortho's. They come to the table with a hammer, chisel and an attitude that will scare ya. Sounds like you have nerve damage aswell ( did) and only let a neuro do my surgery. Mine had slipped so far over it was impeding on my spinal chord, I could not stand or walk either. As soon as I got my MRI they had a bed waiting for me. They can realign everything and stabilize it with rods, screws, and other methods.
Yep, it may not be a good idea to let WC find out you are doing things like I presented, but mine was my own fault and they had me walking the next day. Muscles are the key. They will do their job and help keep things in line if you build them up. Best thing for post surgery is stretch and GET OUT OF THAT BED and WALK.....Walk as much as possible....no pain...no gain. God made us with two legs, two arms, two eyes, two ears,....and one frickin back. Be careful but laying around will not allow bones to heal. Dont smoke, drink caffeine, but stretch and walk hourly!
My best advice!

Three surguries under my belt 74#. I hung my head in shame as I went to pick up my crossbow permit. It let me continue to hunt and worked well with ground blinds so I didn't have to climb. If I shot something I called a Pal to drag the beast out.
I feeling great now and plan on using the Hoyt this year. Got it backed down so much I'm worried aboutthe limb pockets objecting. If it's real cold out I will carry the crossbow as the back just doesn't likebeing chilled. Still keep my shots under 30yds ranged so I still get that close up experience.
Don't let your back drag you down to much but it sure suks always being in pain.
