First and foremost, ask yourself if you have the knowledge and expertise to work with this client. If you are confident that you can provide safe and effective exercise programming for this client, then consult with the appropriate medical staff for any exercise restrictions and/or recommendations. Be confident that the individual is medically cleared to exercise in a non-medical setting.In addition to any restrictions and exercise recommendations, the location (lumbar, thoracic,or cervical) and the direction (posterior, anterior, or lateral) of bulging disc will dictate the appropriate programming.
