    Earned myself a good lower back strain two days ago by using poor lifting techniques when moving some heavy stuff around the house. I was hoping this would just be a minor irritation that’d go away quickly, but it’s not working out that way at all. At this point I don’t even know if I can just wait this one out or if I’ll end up in Physical Therapy. One way or the other--I'm definitely out of the planking biz for a while, which is a shame because I was actually doing pretty well. Best wishes to everybody and maybe I’ll be back a couple months down the road.

    Get better! Hopefully you just pulled a muscle. I keep muscle relaxers around for that and usually 2-3 days of tylenol and a muscle relaxer at night and I'll heal right back up. But if that doesn't do it by taking it easy for a few days, go see a doctor. You can re-join us any time, even next month if you want. No biggie.
