He used to fix my ankles the last time I was really fit when I seemed to twist them every weekend orienteering so I could race X-Country the following Saturday.

My lower back has been giving me grief for a while and it seems the jump off the wall and subsequent racing just finished it off. The main underlying issue seems to be a pubic ligament strain, which I think Ive probably had for a year, that coupled with some poor core stability.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.stodgell.co.uk\/2010pics\/2011\/10\/photo4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-3299\" title=\"photo4\" src=\"http:\/\/www.stodgell.co.uk\/2010pics\/2011\/10\/photo4-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a>So I\u2019ve been down to Taunton twice in the last two weeks. Ivor uses a range of treatments from chiropractic to electro, laser to acupuncture, depending on what\u2019s needed and has also given me lots of exercises to be getting on with. His exercise diagrams are elegantly simple, drawn with a posh ink pen.<\/p>\n<p>Things are improving and today I will get back on the Turbo for 20 mins of leg spinning but I think it will be a long road back to a full training and racing schedule.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My back is slowly on the mend.
