Looks like I need more than just one more week.

I'm still struggling with my back.  There continues to be a dull tightness in my low back.  I'm rolling my legs and back for 20 minutes minimum 5x per week.  If things are the same next week, my hibernation will be extended.

Good news is that with all of the rolling that I've been doing, I've had a pistol PR.  I did 30 pistols on both legs down to a butt ball with no additional bumper plates.  Progress is slow but it's coming. 

In addition, I had a PR on my 2RM bench press.  These gains are keeping me sane through this process.
