Not terrible. The lower back pain is weird, i thought it was from overly tight hamstrings. If I hinge at the waist to touch my toes pain shoots down my right leg and it feels weak. Really weird. Going to

Felt ok. Back held up but I didn’t want to push it with deadlifts. I’m going to have to build my back up slowly I guess instead up just jumping back in.

Rest day, shoulders tomorrow. Watched an episode of 1883 and passed at around 730pm. It’s crazy it’s been 150 days since i saw land. Lots of uncertainty about when we will. I’m feeling pretty beat up, I currently have a weird lower back issue. If I bend over to touch my toes my right leg starts to hurt down through my IT Band. Maybe I’ll start working a stretching routine in after my cardio.
It’s been awesome reading some of the other logs and comparing with clearly more experienced lifters. I’ve realized though a lot for you that I need to switch my training up and learn more. I’ve currently kicking the idea around of either paying for a program like one of Derek Thistlethwaite’s or working with a coach when I get home. I have a few personal/career goals that I need to recomp and fix my body to achieve but after that I’d really like to get on stage.
Thanks for the responses, I’m looking forward to being in a place where I can post some videos of training.
Sorry to hear about the back/leg issue. It could be a nerve related issue like sciatica.
Here’s a short video of a basic, quick move that can help relieve that.
No port visits… I think I know where you are LOL.
