Hi everyone
I am 38 and I have always loved triathlon. I used to play waterpolo like 20 years ago. Then I had my first problem with my low back because of too much training. Disc protusion. After 2-3 years struggling and a knee injury I started to do running for 3-4 years and swimming ocassionally... then some bike, some run, basketball, just fun... Then, 5 years ago, I noticed a pain at the middle of my low back-sacrum that was increasing month after month. I have tried everything and I am trying to find a solution, I am sure I will be freed from this s**** at once.
Many doctors advice to avoid running (I just swim backstroke and so some fast walking) but if I am lucky to recover I´d love to go in triathlon. Is there anybody that has gone trough a back injury and has been able to train and compete?? I am talking about a taking it easy thing---- 5/6h week training, no more
Cheers
