Biggest Loser Diet Club – Sign Up Now

I am always a fan of warming up before a workout and stretching but somehow I did not do it right this afternoon when I went to do my weight workout.

I started with very light weights as a kind of warmup/stretch and as soon as I started with my lower back I felt my back seize up and I went down to the ground. One side of my lower back is OK but the other side is absolutely in pain whenever I try to move.
I am now stuck lying on the couch and trying to figure out how I did this bad pull to my lower back. Needless to say there will be a bunch of posts from me about strengthening your core. I have been hobbled and I seem to have trouble getting up at all so I am joined now to this couch.

My wife and the kids are enjoying calling me an old man and hopefully I heal soon enough to get a workout in again sometime next week but we all know how dangerous back problems are and how they can become chronic issues.
