On Sunday, after 8 minutes of rowing, my lower back pulled a little. I took a 2 minute breather and went back to rowing, to achieve my target of 30 minutes.
Few hours later, I can barely bend and my back is killing me. I have never experienced this type of pain? Try putting on pants when your back doesn’t bend? Hahaha!!!
Actually, I cringed. Ow. I ignored my first rule: listen to your body. Pain is a strong sign. Telling you to stop what you are doing.
This rule trumps the no pain no gain mantra. So I must start over again on my fitness journey. How exciting.
