As
you probably already know, i've bin suffering from lower b
ack soreness for over a year now from a bodyboarding and tr
iggered by a bad plant in po le vault. had all the x-rays,
MRI's and bone scans that u c ould poke a stick at, n its s
hown that there r no stress fractures, but soft tissue dama
ge n overuse in my back and upper legs. as a result, i have
bin advised 2 stop bodyboardi ng and pole vault completely
for 6 weeks to start off with, while doing physio and regu
lar stretching. already, i have nt bin for a surf in 2 week
s, the last surf i had out at 5f t island was painful with
little success n left me curled in a ball on the ground for
1/2hr after i got out of the water.
as disapointed as
i am to be out of the water, i suppose it will be worth it
since il beable 2 improve my pole vaulting and flexibility
in the water without being in pain. i guess il have 2 procr
astinate for the moment, see how it goes, and film what im
missing out on.....hopefully not too much!
