As of early 2013, we are still in the process of rebooting unto the new platform

If you want to keep track of the relaunch you can:

  1. Like us on Facebook
  2. Follow us on Twitter
  3. Send me (Kris) an e-mail and let me know that you'd like to join the new site when it is ready.

Once we are ready to relaunch, we will start spreading the word. Until then, expect silence to mean we are heads down coding. :) The forum is still open for active members, but don't expect a lot of activity here since meets are currently on hold.

It seems that I had injured my back some weeks ago and damaged a disc in my spine. So my sports physician ordered me to stay away from putting any stress on my back for 2 weeks and then start very slowly. Also need to take some physiotherapy.  Also picked up the flu in the meantime. Angry
So I eliminated DLs and Squats from Sheiko program.

Checked the dictionary. It is actually a lumbar vertebra which suffered a minor fracture. It is already healing and I will additionally start some physical therapy to see that that sort of thing doesnt happen again.

Thanks for asking.
During the execise it felt ok. And today also no pain. So I am optimistic. If on Monday I get a green light I want to ramp up both Squat and deadlift.

If you don't mind me asking; how did you sustain the injury? I'm somewhat trained in phys.therapy and am curious as to what would cause a fracture in the lumbar vertebrae short of an accident or a fight. You weren't fighting were you? Smiley

Anything is possible, except maybe skiing through a revolving door.

It is a "spongiöse fraktur". Don't know how to translate this. I discussed this with the therapist and checked wikipedia and it seems that this is a so called incomplete fracture where the softpart within the bone gets compressed and then swells or something of that sort.
You are correct that a complete fracture should only be possible through accident or fighting related.
My guess is that when I pulled 230 kg with no problems instead of going home I lifted 235 with bad form and I felt a pain in my back which then did not go away for weeks.
