 Member 746, 723 posts SQ 180, BP 120, DL 222.5522.5 kgs @ 74kgs UnEq | Post Edited: 01.10.2012 @ 23:35 PM by garrold My last log ended abruptly with (another) back injury.Not being someone who gives in easily, though, I'll keep going, with deads taking a back seat. Today's (Monday) After hammering high bar squats for a month, twice a week, it's time to test low bar.. 140x1 Belt on 150x1 160x1 170x1 175x1 180x1 185x1 Easy enough 155x4 135x8 Bench,paused 100x1 115x1 117.5x1 120x1 Slow, to the point of being boring. If I'd gone 110 then 120, it'd have been much quicker (I think). 100x5 90x8 70x10 Close grip Calf raises up to 180x15 Decline weighted sit ups Tidy. | ||

Just a case of not doing it again now! | ||

Just a case of not doing it again now! The best cure for a knackered back is to stretch it every day in my opinion. Your back sounds in a similar condition to mine. Basically ok, but can be a bit bothersome fom time to time. Mine aches, i stretch it, it stops aching. Simples! | ||

I don't stretch enough. I am getting better though, out of necessity. | ||
