I will say that this last week has made me much more comfortable in using my Galco OWB and the confidence that I can conceal it effectively. I also wore the IWB this weekend w/o issue. I think the pains were a combination of many things.
1) The belt might play a small role (lack of support)
2) Waist band on short too small for IWB use
3) Decrease of muscle tone in lower back
I have addressed them as follows:
1) new belt on order
2) Bought a couple of pairs of shorts for now
3) I have been back hitting the weights post Marathon and am felling GREAT. I have a very mild history of Degenertive Disc Disease that flairs up in mild lower back pain if I quit lifting weights for too long. So that is improving now.
