29 April 2013
Total 50% session today, stabbing pain in left hip has returned and I was barely able to squat to parallel. Several of the reps were a good two inches above parallel. My hip hurt even with 135 pounds on my back and I ended up doing "squatmornings" to avoid the pain.
Warmup leg extensions 2 x 10, adductors and abductors 1 x 20 each
Paused squat 295 lbs. x 5 x 5
Regular squat 345 x 5 reps, decided not to try 405x5 today
Romanian deadlifts 205x5, 215 x 2 sets x 5
Leg extensions, heavy 3 sets x 10
Weighted situps on incline board 3 x 10
No leg presses, didn't want to risk hurting the hip even more.
Did some foam rolling after lifting and I think I have isolated the source of pain - it's in the left IT band, not the hip. Which I guess is better than a messed up hip, but hurts like a hot knife in the muscle. Will be rolling IT bands and quads (both hurt like hell when rolled) every day for a week, see what happens.
