I think I injured myself again. A few months ago, I
injured my lower back in some way. It hasn't bothered me for about a month. However, I felt something funny in my lower back while doing front squats. Imagine putting some tape over a relaxed muscle, say your biceps, then flexing. That tearing/popping feeling is the feeling I got in the left side of my lower back, but much deeper in my body. This time, it was not centered as it was last time. The pain is a little further to the left.
I actually managed to finish the squat portion of today's workout. I only managed half of the normal number of squats because I started getting a pretty intense headache about half way through my second set of front squats.
Surprisingly, it didn't really hurt much to do squats. However, I couldn't do any situps because it would hurt once I tried to raise myself to a sitting position.
Hopefully I'll still be able to do my heavy lower body work on Sunday as I'm eager to find out my max squat and deadlift, but I may have to sit this one out.
Today is also the first time in about half a year that I've missed a 100kg clean. Terrible.
