I hurt my back (pulled muscle) pretty bad the first week of July. I couldn't do much of anything for a good 4-6 weeks. Finally about two weeks ago I got back in the gym for weight lifting and I walk everyday for about an hour. Feeling better already.

On a side note, I am trying the 7 day cold shower challenge and it isnt as hard as I thought but I do not exactly look forward to it either. I get up out of bed, feed the dog, walk to bathroom and brush my teeth and start the shower and walk right in. First few seconds kinda brutal and I'm not breathing lol. Takes about 90 seconds to wash and rinse hair and body but right about the 2 minute mark, it gets easy and youre used to it. I stay in for about 4-5 minutes. Huge difference in flat out being wide awake and ready to take on the day. I get dressed and roll straight to the gym.

Ive also eliminated carbs and beer/soda and began intermittent fasting. My eating window was 10:00am to 6:00pm but now I'm not even hungry before noon so that window is getting smaller and I'm feeling great. Sort of following the keto plan per Dr. Bergs website.
