Back and Biceps, Skipped Ab Ripper X
Well I’ve lost a week to injury. I’ve been to 5 physical therapy visits for my SI joint problem since my last workout. It’s really annoying when it’s out of alignment and if left that way it really does a number on all of my core and especially lower back muscles. Pretty debilitating. Anyway, I’m feeling better and slowly easing back into things. I’m avoiding Plyometrics (too jarring) and I have to avoid most of the Ab workout as well for now. I’m performing core exercises as instructed in my PT sessions and continuing any P90X workout that doesn’t hurt. The diet is going well for the moment.

Shoulders and Arms, Ab Ripper X
Well I’ve been to the doctor and my lower back is messed up. It’s likely that it’s SI joint dysfunction that I ‘ve had trouble with in the past. Essentially it’s my pelvis that’s out of alignment and that’s causing my hip and lower back muscles to draw up higher on one side. I’ve been on some muscle relaxers and have been going to physical therapy. I’m doing much better and I’ve been given the green light to return to my workouts. I’ll probably need to avoid Plyometrics for a bit because of the jarring nature of the workout. I’ve missed 9 days so I don’t plan to count those days. I’ll pick up where I left off in my workout routine. In addition to my physical therapy I’ve got some specialized core exercises to strengthen my back.
Today’s workout felt really good and it was easy on my back since it was basically a weight-lifting routine.

I’ve thrown my back out somehow but not by doing anything in particular.

Legs and Back, Ab Ripper X
Well today is my first workout in a week. Work and a trip out of town has been the cause. As a result I’m sorry to say that my diet has gone south as well. I’m definitely paying the price in today’s workout. I haven’t slipped alot in my progress but my energy level sucks. It’s time to get serious again!
