This was not that good of a training session. The DE work/suitcase pulls were good, but everything else wasn’t as planned. I wanted to do some heavy squats/some strict good mornings today, but my erectors had other plans. I also had some sciatic pain today.
Next week I’ll probably be doing 3X3 for some pause squats, and do some very strict romanian deadlifts.

Thanks :). Everything is progressing (lol at their own pace even with the occasional strained erector/pec/whatever the heck feels like exploding that training cycle) at least somewhat. When is your meet?

Everything, but the front squats were great. The hyper extensions did everything I wanted them to do (train the erectors dynamically/get some blood in there), and even more! My whole back (erectors, spine, ect) felt great afterwards, which surprised me since I am basically flexing the spine, then hyperextending it with a little hip extension to help.
My hip feels pissed on many, many levels. I’m going to see if some heat will help it. It seems to be partly to do with some soft tissue, and mostly to do with a hip flexor.
DE low bar wide stance squat 215X2 for 6 sets, 215X1 for a set but had to dump the second rep because the knee pain was too bad 45 second rest
DE sumo pulls 255X1 for 8 sets, 30 second rest

150X2 L
150X1 R

left knee is caving in when squatting wide. Had to lift 2 hours later than usual, and I think it messed up my strength some after the DE work because my blood sugar was piss poor low. (Ate lunch at 1, lifted at six for reference)
Strict wide stance arched back good mornings off of #12 pin (belly button height)

185X2 hamstrings/glutes/erectors took a dump on themselves, and cried themselves to sleep afterwards
185X1
Good training session, progressed on all of the rep work. The good mornings were brutal to my hamstrings (and glutes), and I think I found a good ME exercise for me to try to improve.

Is it muscular, or structural issues? I really haven’t had much structural issues other than messing up my SI joint (I think that was what it was) to an extreme level rack pulling awhile back. That area was popping for a very long time even after I was even pain free!

Structural.
Did it doing front squats the other day. I think I just have to drop all bilateral squatting altogether or maybe get some shoes with a heal lift.
What did you do to recover from the si joint injury?

I’m not quite sure how it recovered. But over time it naturally returned to the proper position.
There was some popping from the area, and whenever that happened I gained back mobility/it felt better afterwards. Sometimes when it happened, I had some pain afterwards/a second of pain when it happened.
