Injury Update

I have been off the bike since last Sundays road race in Merced.
I have been seeing a doctor about my on going problem with a muscle called the psoas. Trust me it hurts like hell and after i tore it in the RR at Valley of the Sun I should have taking time off right away but I races 4 more races and have put myself even further back. I took some literature from of line to give you a brief idea of what I'm talking about.

The muscle called the psoas begins to become tighter and shorter on one side and since it is attached to the spine, the tight muscle begins to torque or pull on one side of the spine. This in turn creates a slight curve. The psoas muscle is a long muscle that starts at the twelfth thoracic vertebrae, travels down the back then crosses the front of the pelvic bone and
inserts deep into the front of the thigh.

Lame.

Initially, gotta say "lame" to 'gynch's' comment.  Couldn't even say anything pertaining to your injury...I'd like to know if you'd like some cheese to go with your whine?...

Anyway, I hope the issue resolves itself quickly.  Some way, some how you gotta give yourself some time to heal.  Michael Ball, if you're reading this, give RB some time off...That's the only way the muscle is going to heal properly and fully...

With regard to team information, that's not what this site is about.  I want information on how Rahsaan Bahati is doing.  If I want info on Rock Racing I'll go to Rock's site - take note gynch...

Ouch! Yeah after my crash on Sunday I also had problems with my pSO-ASS!  And your trainer workout didn't help it.  
Well hope you're feeling better. Remember rest and recovery is part of training.  If that doesn't work lets go back to Fathers Office and drink some Cerveza!

I agree with Mario... rest and recovery are a part of training but it still sucks. Take care.
