I have been getting pains along the crest of my left hip since I have been exercising lately.

I thought it was stressed muscles or a tear.

I -igured it out.

It's my belt.

I use this style..These are the belts that baseball players use. THey are elastic and you can get them in all sorts of colors. You can adjust them by sliding the metal piece along the length.

I took an old onethat I had not worn for almost a year and adjusted it so it would hold up my pants it was too large.... The metal piece rested on a steel buckle adjuster on my cargo shorts. It didn't feel bad or hurt, but it was pressing on a nerve!


I don't understand why fitness has to be painful. But, i'll take it! Almost two inches in a year.
