Bloody hell you alright now? Hope that doesn't happen to me, I have a bad back I do a lot of weight lifting and I managed to rip a muscle off my spine from just getting off the sofa in the gym waiting room. Like you I had to have a lot of time off work n fishing but I went back to work after a few months. My current bedchair seems to ache my back a lot and I thought the lumbar support would help.

I have this same Trakker bed, I find it very comfortable but there is one annoying gripe, which is probably my fault. I use the bed with the trakker 365 bag (not the compact one), and it's almost just too big for the bed, the zips pull round under the sides a little and can sometimes snag a quick exit! So, just worth, IMO, considering which bag you pair the bed up with, the bed's great, the bag is great, but not sure the two together are

Your injury also sounds bad...
Its a yr ago now,and I'm nearly better,the odd bad day..it'll never be the same though..
Anyone with a non give lumbar support bedchair,if I was you,when you get a run,do a controlled movement off the bedchair,not a superfast leap off...and use a SIM.Mine is made by multimat,and is pretty good it stays in the RT,by Avid..
No one is invincible,I learnt the hard way...lol...👎

Yeah it was bad I couldn't feel my legs for a while so was worried I wouldn't be able to walk again. I have been told by my doctor very strictly that I have to give up the weightlifting side of the gym but still carry on with the cardio side. Mine ain't the same either bud still get a few aches n pains now and then.
I've looked into online and a lot of people are recommending you actually get the non lumbar support version instead so I think I'll go and have a look at a shop and test both out first.

I have back issues too, degenerative disc and facet joint problems.
I had 3 bed chairs that all had lumber support and all 3 made my back pain worse.
I went for a RLX 6 Superlight for this season and its has made such a difference, yes its is much softer and does sag a little but I think the extra "give" in the middle really helps me.
I am big build and find it really comfortable.

My Wychwood Tactical died recently after a few years use. I've posted on here many times how much I liked it and how I would buy another but the Trakker Superlight caught my eye so I bought it.
For a sub £100 bed (Cyprinus version is cheaper still), the Wychwood was fantastic but the RLX is a league above it.
Has a much superior build quality, it doesn't feel like its going to shake itself apart like the Wychwood did.
I much prefer how the buckle system works, still clamped shut but the legs are free to move.
The legs are sturdier.
It's only 1lb 5oz heavier, I can live with that.

The buckle system is so simple on Trakker beds but it makes such a big difference. I hated my other beds which had the legs within the buckles.

What's the difference between the normal flat 6 and the super light apart from it being lighter?? I'm quite chunky and have back problems so need something reliable Sturdy and comfortable
