I started back at the gym this week. The front of me isn't really sore, but my lower back still feels bruised, sore to the touch, and a little numb, so I decided to do my cardio workouts on the elliptical as opposed to running. Everything went fine as far as cardio. I lifted with my trainer on Tuesday and he kicked my butt! I was really sore for a few days aftwerwords. The pictures above were taken on day 23 (Tuesday after I worked out with my trainer). I look very swollen, especially the small of my back.I'll post more pictures next week before I go to the gym so all the swelling won't be there.
