I know I have bitched about it already but my Low back was still F'n Stiff and sore still. Now this is the best my vertebrate alignment has felt in ages but the muscles are readjusting. Physio did a real number on it. In a good way. A side effect though is my hip is starting to be sore, achy.Time for an increase in Glute work.

0850 hrs
Got on the Stair Mill, then 5 Min in I shut the session down.
It was just one of those days. From the moment I put the Weighted Vest on I could feel my hip socket was not having a good day. I was awake multiple times the night before because of my hip. It just was not comfortable. I think it was probably the humidity.
Spent the rest of the day relaxing on the couch, relaxing in the sun and eating food. Back at it tomorrow. On the Upside my low back feels great.
