Somehow I jacked up my lower back. Wasn’t lifting, so maybe it was from a bike ride… or maybe it was one of those mysterious sleeping injuries we seem to get as we get older. 😂 I’ve been walking around like an old man.
Advil, ice, and my TENS unit have helped, and today is a lot better than it was three days ago.
I haven’t been to the gym in four days, but having a bench and some dumbbells at home has let me make a few adjustments. I’ve been sticking with arms and some light shoulder work while I let my back settle down.
The old me would have said, “Screw it,” and done nothing. Not this time. Just making adjustments, staying as consistent as I can, and keeping things moving until I’m back to 100%.
