Back Re-injury

Last Monday I re-injured my back throwing. I sprained my lower back muscle. This is the second time in two months. Its frustrating because injuries force me to take time off and also means I have to back down on the intensity of my throws. I returned to training 4 days later only because I know that the season is right around the corner and I need to have the reps in to be ready to go big! Today I'm feeling a lot better, after chiropractic sessions and a lot of stretching, ice and rest. Dr. B still wants me to throw at minimal strength for another week or so just to be safe.
I will be very careful not to re-injure myself by wearing a belt, stretching and an adequate warm-up.
