Hip is still fucked. Body weight squats, and with the bar, it’s fine. As soon as there’s weight, it hurts like a son of a bitch. Through together a makeshift workout. Ah well.

Hip still sucks. Overall an ok workout though. Depressed I can’t squat. Cut it short as I was running late for work.

What happened to your hip bro? I could backtrack but I don’t wanna go through 15 pages :p

Not sure what precisely caused it, but it started hurting a few weeks after starting to front squat regularly. From what I’ve looked up, it seems to be hip pinch.
 
After reading numerous articles, it seems to be hip pinch causing my pain. I moved in my squat stance today and it didn’t hurt (felt uncomfortable, but no sharp pain). Worked up to a decent single, pain free. I’ll be dropping the weight way down and ride the linear gains I think.

Good workout. It’s been about a month since I’ve stopped drinking alcohol, and overall I feel fantastic. Who knew alcohol was such a detriment to training (everyone). I definitely could go for a beer though.

Well, I hope it gets better soon so you can proceed with your workouts pain/discomfort free :)
 
Got to the gym with the best of intentions. Both squat racks were taken, so I had to improvise time wasting exercises. Paused decline bench. Slow back extensions. When a rack finally opened, paused squats. No time for deads, bike or ab work though.

Another solid workout. Hip doesn’t hurt at all during squats. It’ll act up randomly while I’m sleeping in an awkward position, but that’s about it. On the topic of sleep, I’ve been sleeping like a baby these past few weeks, and I feel fantastic/refreshed after every night’s sleep. I’ll need a rest day one of these days, but I don’t feel like I need one.

Got in the gym 3 times last week, but nothing to write home about. Between work, and driving 6 hours to and from Ottawa to find a home on my off days, I was pooped. Messed around today, but alas, my body is still tired and I’m not getting enough sleep.

Hopefully after next week I’ll be able to start back up again.

Today:
Bench
Pull ups
LISS on stationary bike
 
Had a great sleep today. Yesterday I consulted one of my friends about becoming a better skater for hockey, and he put me through some basic balance/stability tests, which I failed miserably. So I’ll be incorporating that into my program (should have a long time ago). It’s a struggle to just stand and balance on one leg lol.
