Burning Back Pain

So, I've been exercising pretty hard as of recently-light cardio and intense strengthening exercise including core work and arm work that involve me doing arm dips on the side of the bed, crunches, plank, etc, and now I'm experiencing some pretty uncomfortable back pain. Almost a burning sensation where I feel like I either need a good back crack or a pretty intense massage. But it's freaking me out. Could it be from improper form from exercising? Or my muscles just not used to the heavy lifting and work? But it's so different than a sore muscle feeling. Hmmm m.

Great job on your workout regimen!

It can however bring a certain amount of discomfort!

In my experience. ..the trapezius and lattisimus dorsi muscles tend to be the 'burny' type...

Hit up your girl for a massage to loosen up, and distribute lactic acid build up!

Keep.going, but easy does it!

Sophie,

There's pain from working out and then there's PAIN. It's important to know the difference. You don't want to sustain an injury. I've hurt myself several times. Ease your body into working out hard so you don't overdo it.
