00:00Dylan Efron pushes through injury on DWTS.
00:04Not good for learning spins,
00:05exclusive DWTS contestant Dylan Efron
00:08revealed a physical challenge he encountered
00:10that made this week more difficult than anticipated.
00:13The traders alum Dylan Efron
00:15and his Dancing with the Stars partner,
00:18Daniela Karagok,
00:19have survived another week in Season 34.
00:22They got rave reviews for their Wicked Night Roomba,
00:24earning all eights from the judges.
00:27At the show, Efron talked with Parade
00:29and admitted there was something
00:30he had been struggling with in rehearsals,
00:32a neck injury.
00:34In an interview with Parade
00:35after the October 21st Dancing with the Stars show,
00:38Efron said he threw out my neck a couple of days ago.
00:41He admitted that the neck injury
00:42made the numerous pirouettes he had
00:44in his dance with Karagok difficult.
00:46Luckily, it's feeling better, Efron added.
00:49He shared that it bothered him mostly
00:51when he first woke up in the mornings
00:53because he couldn't turn his head.
00:55It's not good for learning spins, he pointed out,
00:57and Karagok emphasized it all.
01:00To try to overcome the issue,
01:02Efron revealed he had been taking
01:03Epsom salt baths every night
01:04and just trying to take care of himself.
01:07Parade pointed out that Efron
01:08and the other remaining Dancing with the Stars contestants
01:11are now at nearly the midway point of Season 34.
01:15It is at this point of each season
01:17that the contestants can start to feel a bit beat up
01:20and worn down physically.
01:21Efron noted that this week had been a little bit of a break
01:24from the tough physical demands on his body.
01:27Unfortunately, his neck injury sprang up
01:30to cause other difficulties.
01:32Despite the ongoing pain,
01:34it didn't appear to take anything away
01:35from Karagok and Efron's Wicked Night Roomba performance.
01:39Next up for Efron and Karagok
01:41is their Halloween-themed dance.
01:44He told Parade that they couldn't say much about it.
01:46However, they are excited for Dancing with the Stars,
01:48fans to see what they have planned.
