Pulled Muscle, work through?
For the last week or so i have had a slight pull/strain in my upper back. (Just below my shoulder blade)
No sharp pain, doesn’t hurt with movement, no serious pain at all really. Just some tightness and a fatigued feeling in that spot when i stand for a while. Anyway.. Questions is, how do you treat minor things like this? Is it ok to just kind of push through it? BTW I did it racking DB's, not doing an actual exercise.

I would concentrate on all movements that do not aggravate that area when performed! You dont want to make the injury worse or prolong the injury.
You may have to skip out on back work all together for a week or 2. Work what you can. Last edited by BiggerGuns=LongerDrives; 11-01-2007 at 09:27 AM.

LOL @ the NEWB double posting...........
I would take any time off - just go easy on that particular area, although still work it.

I went ahead and did Rows on weds anyway (before posting this) it was tight afterward but it actually feels better today...
But ya, if i still feel it all on Monday i will go super light on the back work.
