I've had this thing with my back lately. The thing is: it hurts. Not joint or disk pain, just the muscles, sore and tight in a way that mostly impact my life by being annoying. I sit at my desk and am distracted by the pain. Irked. Irritated. There's almost nothing I love more than solving a problem, except maybe overpreparing for an insignificant event, but what's thwarting about this particular problem is its possible solutions seem to be opposites. Is the solution more exercise, movement and strengthening? Or is this muscle soreness from overwork, do I need to go easier or take a break? Effort or rest? Can't do both at once!
