Ether 12:27 And if men come unto me I will show unto them their weakness. I give unto men weakness that they may be humble; and my grace is sufficient for all men that humble themselves before me; for if they humble themselves before me, and have faith in me, then will I make weak things become strong unto them.

Body Comp 180.2 lbs 10.2 to 17.3% BF the holidays have not been kind to my exercise routine and my body has not felt well.  This morning after a Chiropractor visit I ran on the TM at the TH 1% incline Time was 9:39 HR was 116/128.  Every time my left heel hit the ground a pain shoots up my leg into left lower back.  I think it concentrates at the sciatic nerve.  It just kills me so if anyone has any ideas let me know.  I have been icing it and taking tons of Ibuprofen.  My Chiropractor doesn't seem to know and I went to my family doctor and now he is sending me to see a sports medicine guy.

Anyway after that I went to the elliptical and according to it I put in another 4 miles.  I have always thought those things look way to easy and now I am sure of it.  Very minimal pain.  Time was 26:30  but I also walked a 1/10 mile and changed machine and figured out how to get it going total time for this segment was 29:46 and HR was 132/163.

Next I biked for 10 minutes and HR was 140/155 just a regular spin bike.

Lastly I lifted and stretched for 15:14 and HR was 101/148.  The only thing that really hurt the back was the running.  I am beyond frustrated.  Lucky for me with the current weather I don't think I will be running out of ice for my back.  Any suggestions would be gladly appreciated.
