    Dealing with a bad abdominal strain. Anyone else had this experience?

    @nikamelodia Rest, rest, rest. For me it takes a week or two of rest after a strain, and then if I still have chronic pain, I do only one set of high reps(not to failure) on the problem muscle, and that pushes out the chronic pain, and is good to resume regular workouts.

    @faleroy I was like that in my 40s. I thought I was too old to even go for runs. I feel younger now than I did then.

    Muscle Strain of the Upper Back (Trapezius Strain) keeps killing my gains and motivation

    @nisa I have had this and it was from overworking my muscles with too much back muscle exercises on the same day. I am not sure if it was rhomboid or traps though.
