| did some core work last night, thinking instead of going all in and messing it up again slowly get back into the heavy lifting and get back more likily to withstand it. so some basic blank and core work. will be doing some more at weekend ready for next week. | |||

| yeah mate back in tonight or tomorow prob try some light squats and plenty off, like 10 x 3 i think was said on here. think ill leave the clean as its a fairly violent movement to see how the squats go. just do some more over head. chest etc. and nail the bike. lose a bit of fat over thwe winter and come back faster, fitter and stronger next year lol. | |||

| went to the gym last week. So I went and started on some push press from rack, light just to see how it would hold up. Didn’t seem to bad at all, went up to 75k x 1, and yeah could feel a niggle but nothing major. Moved onto some more strict seated overhead press and then some bench on a smith. My tri’s seemed uber f**ked tho after the push press. But oh well. Did some close grip pull downs which again wasn’t to bad. After this went did 15mins on the bike. Overall the back wasn’t to bad during training but then got progressively worse during night however wasn’t at any really bad point. So I may try to rep out some very light squats or deads, just to see how it feels. Tho as I sit here I can feel it now on the work chairs so going to have to get somat sorted about that. | |||

| who would the best people be to see out whats wrong with it. yeah mate, goin to get a bit fitter. taking up ju jitsu when back better aswell for extra core work and could do with beign fitter. i have negelcted core work and yeah im going to do more. i may try some very light deads squats etc, but i could really feel it on light squats the other week. im just hating getting weaker and fatter fo no point. i think ill adjust my program to do exercises like above to keep me doing something with a good cycling session as shudn get tot he back. | |||

| wanting to get back in gym but my back is still bad. im going to start some streches first thing in a morning i reckon, but also if it dosnt improve may have to see some advice, chiropracter i suppose. but ideas for stuff i can do in the gym that wont make it worse seated/strict military press with no push various chest press leg press? rows pull downs may also do some cycling at the gym as nto doing much witht he bust back obv non of the main 3, squat, dead and floor to overhead carnt think of out else. sick of not beign int he gym and sick of getting weak! | |||
