OVER 40 MUSCLE

Well, I made it to my back doctor today. He worked on me for a while and wanted me to come back Friday for more. It looks like at this point, it is just a strain. That is a good thing. He told me to lay off the squats (and any other leg workout) for the rest of the week. I have to do the ice and heat rotation thing for a couple of days too. I might try to get back and do some cardio or light lifting this week but nothing is written in stone. I got my reality check – and I am gonna be careful from here on out.

I am leaving on Friday afternoon with my band for three weekend gigs in Florida. I already have my meals planned out (will cook them up Thursday evening after work) and am almost packed and ready to go. I will get back home sometime Monday evening. I have my back cushion from a few years ago and will take extra care of my back while I am out.
