does the lower back ever recover?

[Marty Champions]

i am doing things like running 100 yard dashes with two 65 pound dumbells but dam if my lower back right at the base of the spine aint always a little bit tight every day, i wonder if this is a dietary related thing, maybe need more saturated animal fats to recover like some icecream and cake, but wash it down with plenty of water to avoid heart issues

sounds more like your lower back is trying to say 'please stop running around carrying 65lb dumbells'

 High impact excercises are no good. They fuck you up a lot more than they help.

 Get a bicycle with a solid travel rack. Put some heavy shit on the rack. Ride a heavy bicycle around. Much better and lower impact.

well i wont quit at it yet since the benefits seem to outweigh the negatives by some margin, im hoping eventually my lower back will adapt, it could take months or years? who knows the limits and capabilities of human, we cant say for certain that us humans cant adapt to running with two 65 pound dumbells

Of course we will adapt to that. Your grandgrandgrandgrand...g rand-children will do it a lot easier. It just takes 1000 years of carrying two 65 pounders around.
Little patience here, please. Things won't happen overnight.

so are you saying i couldnt adapt in 1 or 2 year?

[Alexander D]

Johnny clearly your rants against meat-eaters is causing discord within the muscle fibers of your lower back. I suggest you up the beer and paint chips you've been eating.

Yeah, it will probably adapt once you have your L2, L3 & L4 vertebrae fused.  You'll need that in another year or so at your pace.  Keep your chin up champ, you're on your way.

if it doesn't get progressively worse you should be okay, try jumping squats with the same dbs.

It isn't food, it is the muscle balance. Try to run those dashes to uphills with those dumbbells, you know, fast up, slowly down. Use at least those 65 pounds, bigger if you can. When our gym were in seventh floor of the building, we used to take two dumbbells and go down to first floor with elevator, then we run upstairs because that is one great cardio workout. I used to run with two 30kg dumbbells and with straps because my grip isn't so good. When you run stairs your step and posture is just right, but when you run flat, your step and posture isn't any good. Uphills is second best choice.

Yes, cake and ice cream for low back issues is a sound, recognized approach.

personally, I'd just smoke less crack

larry scott once said in flex magazine "if you have got a shoulder injury it will need few months to recover,.. a knee injury one good year,.. a lower back injury, you must accept to live with it the rest of your life"!!.. sure he was talking about serious injuries and sure i am not sure if what he said is true or not!!..

How old are you?  Past the age of 35, (lower) back pain is very common.  There are specific stretching exercises you can do to relieve or minimize this pain.  You will need to have someone (a friend, a physical therapist, exercise physiologist, etc.) show you what they are as they are hard to describe.  Some are performed while sitting in a chair; others can be done while lying in bed.  Here are some i just found...  Remember, these are stretching exercises; you goal is to stretch to the indicated position and hold that posture for 15-60 seconds depending on the specific maneuver.  Good luck.

You should try pushing a ford pickup truck around your gym parking lot so everyone can see. I believe its part of the Derik Farnsworth principles

I had to take four whole weeks off one summer just so my lower back could recover.

cheat a little and eat some protein just for a few weeks so it'll repair.
