My back pumps like mad for a couple of days after deadlifts, it makes me walk like a spacker and after 20 minutes or so it gets proper painful. My lower back tends to feel sore if i stand in one place for a long period of time such as a concert and yeah if i get dragged round the trafford centre shopping then it gives me s**t then too.

Not sure whether my back pain is to do with a car crash i had a few years ago so i have to watch what im doing. DL prob isnt the best thing.

Incline walking is nicer than walking which is nicer than standing, I've had this ever since the army (as far as I remember, never had to stand for hours on end before)

always lookIng for the extra UT2 work. Member 9, 18279 posts SQ 255, BP 167.5, DL 330 752.5 kgs @ 103kgs Eq	I find a bit of cross country walking good for my back. Standing around for long periods or very long walks, I find, irritate my back.

Dan is old fashioned. Member 27, 2028 posts SQ 240, BP 170, DL 255 665.0 kgs @ 102kgs UnEq	I've started a thread on back pain/pumps to see what other people say.

Still mostly bodybuilding Member 501, 10465 posts SQ 220, BP 150, DL 250 620.0 kgs @ 94kgs UnEq	Was at a bit of a loss as to what to do tonight as i normally do pressing on a thursday but am giving my wrist a rest this week so decided to do a random BB style session. DB Forward Raises 4x10 @ 40kg DB Lateral Raises 4x10 @ 50kg Pec Deck 4x10 @ 320kg DB Rear Lateral Raises 4x10 @ 40kg DB Hammer Curls 4x10 @ 45kg Decline Crunches 4x12 As far as BB sessions go i got a bit of a pump on. If anything i now look like a white Ronnie Coleman.

Still mostly bodybuilding Member 501, 10465 posts SQ 220, BP 150, DL 250 620.0 kgs @ 94kgs UnEq	I may have exagerated the weights slightly to make it look a little bit better.

Still mostly bodybuilding Member 501, 10465 posts SQ 220, BP 150, DL 250 620.0 kgs @ 94kgs UnEq	Great session tonight - a change from the norm but i loved it. Squats 3x95kg 2x115kg 4x145kg 4x145kg 4x145kg 4x145kg 3x145kg I wasnt happy with the depth on a couple of my reps so did a final set of 3 to satisfy myself i hadnt cheated. Box Jumps - Roughly 15" Platform 38 in 60 Seconds 60 Second Rest 34 in 60 Seconds 60 Second Rest 28 in 60 Seconds Never done these before but i love em. Not the highest of platforms but i had to make so with what i had in the gym - certainly got the legs pumping after the squats. HIIT Cross Trainer - 5 Minutes 30 Seconds - Flat Out 30 Seconds - Slow Pace Had intended on doing this for 10 minutes but my fitness is pretty much non-existant so im plannin on adding 1 minute each week or more if i feel im capable until i can do 20 minutes then im going to switch to 60 seconds flat out and 60 seconds rest. Finished off the gym session with 12 minutes in Tanerife across the road to warm me up then headed home. Two Handed Kettlebell Swings 7 Sets x 25 Swings - 30 Seconds Rest Every rep was powering the bell down except for maybe the last set when i just wanted to get finished. Finshed - legs like jelly but feeling good.
