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!!

I'm not an expert for sure, but I did injured my back previously. I was doing heavy one arm row and without me realizing, I was cheating. I strained my back pretty bad. Bad enough to think that it's a slipped disk. However, I've stopped doing DL and one arm row, and I incorporate bent over row. Now, after 2-3months, the pain is no longer there. Even if I try to replicate the same movement that I did back then to inflict pain in the affected area, I no longer feel it now.

So I guess working around the injury is the best bet?

Ah... that's unfortunate. Do you always feel pain or only when you turn/twist your torso?
