5 weeks before the IFBB Australian Pro show, i suffered a lower back injury and had to pull out from the AU and NZ shows. It was an old injury resurfaced when doing a set of squat. I was all focused and preparing well for the AU show and it was a very unfortunate incident. I saw a chiropractor and he strongly advsised me to skip the shows to give myself plenty of time for revovery.
     I am recovering fast with the help from the chiropractor and already back to doing some light training after taking 3 weeks off in the gym. Its ashamed that i had to pass the shows as i was really looking forward to compete in the best shape of my life and meeting some of my Australian friends again in Melbourne.
      Now my plan is to do some of the shows later in the year. I will come back stronger than ever and will keep you guys posted!
