Its been the latest topic at my gym recently and I was wondering if any of you guy's and gals had ever suffered with this condition.

Yep. Anything in particular you want to know. I only had the pain about halfway down my thigh and arse and back on the right hand side but I couldn't get up for about 4 days. Spent 4 months repositioning my core using ibuprofen to train and by strengthening my lower abs I now have no problem and look a lot better for it too.

What exactly is sciatica, how do you get it? Something to do with trapped nerves isnt it?
