I finally got to meet physiotherapist due to my lower back, hip and knee pain. After her examination I found out that I have a double-twisting (lumbar and thoracic) scoliosis, fascia inflammation on hip and lower back and also that I have wear out my body to the overtraining point.
She recommended me to take it easy for a while and not increase my weight training load. My problems are likely caused by my flexibility - when I train my muscles they pull my whole body out of place. Overtraining has caused fascia problems 'cos those neural tissues aren't growing as quickly as the muscle inside them. Inflammation in hip fascia is typical when thighs are trained in repeatedly with big loads - common in sports such as ice hockey. 
Last week was different. I dumped my usual gym program and had good time just hanging on the gym. I also missed two Taido classes and my runs. The week was crowned with a weekend on spa-hotel, where I emptied the buffét three times per day and enjoyed of doing nothing.
This week is all about finding the balance. I start my gym program from start, decreasing load and taking better care on nutrition and recovery.
