I would! Why further aggravate the situation which may lead to having to take more time off? KWIM
May as well get the rest now and workout hard fter you are in better shape.

Yes, take a day or two off and maybe start back doing something easy, like a jog/walk combination before jumping back in. Running might aggravate it more. Sometimes all it takes is a few days of rest.
Feel better.

Re: I hurt my lower back doing Insanity...
Ugh thats the worst! I have had a sore lower back from the 30 day shred video and I still ran. I find running doesn't really have much effect my lower back but I guess it depends how bad you hurt it...and the person. Maybe skip 1 day and see if it feels better tomorrow...if so then run? Sorry not much help! Feel better!

Thats what I was thinking... its not really an area that would hurt while running. But it hurts bad just sitting! And then I decided to rearrange our playroom yesterday and lifted a lot of heavy things myself. Not a good idea!

Re: I hurt my lower back doing Insanity...
I strained/sprained my lower back last month. Doctor told me rest is the worst thing that you can do because it'll just cause your muscles to tighten. Doctor actually told me it was not only ok to continue running or walking, but it would be good for my back. The only thing she told me to do was keep the incline low so as not to put added pressure on my lower back.
Hope you're feeling better soon.
