Just wanted to provide an update for those of you who were there Wednesday. It appears that 2 discs were aggravated in my lower back which caused severe muscle inflammation. It doesn’t appear that there was any damage and no need for any PT. In the mean time I am out for 1-2 weeks. Following that it will be light loads for a while,
As for how it happened, I think being off for work, and coming back to Lynne was a factor. I think that the bench press / pullup couplet with deadlifts and more CTB the next day did me in.
Thank you for those who were concerned and those who helped clean up my station. Not being able to move a 30# dumbbell was very humbling.
Sorry to hear that man. Get well soon!
Glad to hear it’s just inflammation. Inflammation hurts, but at least it goes away without much issue.
I’m glad you’re okay! It sucks that you’ll have to deal with some inflammation, but it’s definitely better than some other alternatives.
Toughest wod I’ve ever done.
RIP Santiago

I agree with Josh that this was a particularly brutal workout. I just about finished five rounds at the silver level, thanks to Emily’s encouragement.
Doctor advised me to take it easy, so instead of doing today’s WOD, I hiked 13+ miles (~5 hours) on Monte Sano. Pulled teeth or no, I still have to train for my wedding!
Awesome! Perfect day for it too.
I love “I still have to train for my wedding.”
I didn’t run at all, but kept a very deliberate, brisk walking pace. Hopefully this means I’ll be able to cut some significant time off of my previous TM time, even though I probably won’t be running the whole way. Yay progress!
