Training Log Archive: BorisGr

I decided I should start logging my physical therapy and other related exercises so I am more motivated to do them.

Today:
- heat
- ultrasound
- stretches for the piriformis and hamstrings
- self-mobilization exercises

And now, for some good news: I just accepted a position as Education Policy Analyst with the Congressional Research Service at the Library of Congress, starting in September. I am excited!

Exercise bike

Hamstring stretches, plus some core work and side stretches for posture

I have tried a number of the things suggested by the AP hive mind - thank you everyone! I went and got an MRI of the lower back and have made appointments with a hip guy and a back guy. The hip guy today told me that I have a herniated disk in my lower back and that I should do more physical therapy and see a back guy. Pretty discouraged at the moment, as I am not able to sleep through the night without taking hydrocodone. Will try more sustained physical therapy...

Since my back/hip seized up after the dvoa a-meet I haven't been able to walk without limping or stand without being in a lot of pain or sleep through the night. The chiropractor says that my s-i joint keeps locking up and can't do anything to get it to move and stay moving. My frustration levels are getting extremely high. Anyone ever have a problem like this and have any advice?

Still injured and extremely busy at work / looking for work, so no running / orienteering for me for a while.
