Oh Marv, I understand your frustration, but if you have a sore back you do need to rest. Any idea what caused it? Have you seen your GP? Sometimes sore lower back can mean weak abdominal muscles, so once you recover you could try some core strength exercises?
Hope you feel much better soon and are able to start victory week! Take care.
Aww thank you Sadie-runs Iโm not to sure why it started a few weeks ago but itโs got worse but Iโm going to have a test and see how I go but I think I need to do some core excerise will ask my PT when I book in with her x
Oh bad luck, rest up, stay nice and warm and hope you get back to your runs soon.
Bravo for remaining so positive! I've become a specialist of backache for over 25 years... Rest and take care of it (stretching and massage?): the graduation line is not far away and you'll make it.
It doesn't have to be a 9 week course. It took me much, much longer. If you have an injury you have to rest it. However long it takes, you are still on the course. You will finish it. Week 9 is just a title not a requirement. I did week 2 for weeks and weeks until my knees were up to moving on. Now everything hurts except my knees.
Hi ya love thank you for asking Iโve had 2 weeks off now and Iโm back at the gym tomorrow !, Iโm feeling a little nervous ๐ฌ but Iโm taking it very slowly ๐xx
Hi Marv is it a back ache or back pain? There is a difference. It could be due to new muscles you are using when running. It could also be due to your running shoes are not serving you. I did a gait analysis and needed an insert to support my knee and back ache after thisbnow I donโt have a problem. Might be worth checking. Good luck !!
Hi jan55 Iโve had my gait checked and my shoes ๐ are ok but my back is feeling much better Iโve been off the program for 2 weeks now but Iโm planning on going back to the gym tmw but I am going to take it very slowly ๐๐
Sorry to hear ๐๐ฉ but why not just do week 8 / 9 again ... it's better to repeat than let all that work slide ... and stretch well ... I have a bad back too so I feel your pain ...
