[jeremys]

ok, FINALLY feels like its healed up for the most part...but i can tell my lower back is still very weak..how do i strengthen it back up and rehab it? like squat a certain weight for a certain # of sets and reps until im back up to where i was or what? what about rehab on the reverse hyper?

I went weeks with no weights until I was sure I had built back up
before starting HyperExtentions and Squats/deads...
Those Big Exercise balls are good for this situation IMO...

Read Spatt's problems with her back on the pling board...and email her and Hannibal. They have VERY good advice.

My lower back re-injury is just about healed too. I applied ice and heat for a few days, and it wasn't hurting much after that. Right now it feels good, but there will be some slight pain when I bend over too far. I think I'm just gonna do it light tomorrow. I should be good to deadlift and squat by next week.
