Yesterday morning, after I pulled in to the parking lot at work, I reached to the back seat to grab my back pack. It was a little heavy with my laptop, a couple of bottles of mineral water, some files etc. As I lifted it off the back seat, something pulled on the left side of my lower back. It was painful but I didnt realise how bad it was until I tried to get out of the car.
I was stuck in the car – couldnt get out and I dont think I could walk the 15 minutes or so into the office. I sat for a while, tried to straighten my back and after a while, decided I need to see a doctor.
My back was crook, I was knocked out by the codeine the doctor gave me and have been home last couple of days. A bit weird to be at home when so much is going on in the office and this morning I decided to spend some time checking my emails.
60 of them… gotto go attend to them now.

My colleague has experienced the same thing when he turned and tried to lift the laptop at the back seat. He took about a week to recover.
May be it is time to lift some weights at the gym to train the back muscles. Go for compound exercise for functional fitness.
