Hey all,
I know this is more of a "gimp central" question, but more people visit this board and I think this is something many people can relate to. Anyway, last season being the crappy PNW season that it was, I was skiing Timberline's park and slightly overshot a tabletop coming up flat. Right after the incident my lower back hurt a bit, but not too bad. Since then I notice it after running every once in a while, but it's not too bad.
Three days ago I jumped of a bed (long story) that was maybe 1.5 feet tall, not large. However, 20 minutes later my lower back started hurting a lot. It got better by today and I went skiing- I maybe did 4, 4-5 foot mini-hucks onto very soft landings. Now my back is killing me. It's all lower back. Things that aggravate it include doing sit-ups or really anything involving bending at the waist. I'm thinking I could have compressed something (cartilage?) at the tabletop last year? Any ideas on what the root of the problem could be. I know to stay in shape, condition the core, stretch, etc.
Thanks! –kb
