Recently threw my back out in gym. Was having a really stewpid bad form while doing back related exercises. Now paying a very painful price. Thank god its just a muscle sprain and not a slipped disc.

I don't know enough about back injuries and rest periods but how long will it take before I can go back to my gym routine? Till the pain goes away? I have been resting for 3 days and my physique is getting worse by the day. The pain is getting milder and should be gone by tomorrow fingers crossed.

Also I did not know my body will deteriorate at such a quick rate! Normally how long will you skip gym before your body shows it? Just wanna get everyone's opinion and experience.
Cheers!!

Hey Des.. Guess everyone has their day 😊 Honestly no one can advise better than your body. If you go to doc, 2-6 weeks.. I, for one, having very bad chronic back issue, once in every 2 months, the pain will revisit me, normally I rest for a week.. When I feel I can hit gym at. 80%, the remaining normally cures in super fast.. That's my personal set of problem.

It's time to look into your form, start lower weight while recuperating, before hit twice harder 👍 Cobra stance helps to ease up back muscles.
