2017NOV09 (REST)

Rest:

- Today is the fourth day of my forced rest period due to a low back injury.  I'm feeling slightly better today compared to yesterday.  A solid night of sleep helped dramatically, thanks to the drug cocktail of muscle relaxers and pain medications.  I'm itching to lift again, because I feel like I'm losing all my strength by the minute, but at the same time, the injury has me a little apprehensive; thereby, causing a lack of motivation to train.  I know this all sounds contradictory, because I do want to lift, but taking the time off due to injury has made me somewhat comfortable becoming a lazy slug.  Furthermore, I'm not looking forward to the DOMS that typically accompanies a return to training after a prolonged period off.  At this rate, I figure by Monday, I may feel recovered enough to at least squat.
