Well on a whim I dusted off a parallel box I had to examine my current depth. WOW.… didnt realize that I have been going so deep a good 3 inches at the least below parallel ! I find it ironic since I have been on my oldest for the same issue. Well im going out on a limb and speculating the on and off hip issues might be due to the excessive ROM. Well took steps to make sure that I didnt go excessively below parallel on my working sets.Guess what, NO signal from the right hip and the Squats felt explosive as hell with tons of speed out of the hole.
.
By inadvertently using a larger ROM on your squats have you perhaps made your parallel squat stronger?
Do you squat sometimes deeper in your off season than as a comp is approaching go back to squatting parallel?
for the record Im considering parallel what is pictured on the right…
I would say not really at the moment, but I think it has to do with my age and millage .I got a feeling the extra ROM might be putting extra torque on things in the hip area.[quote=“Irishman92, post:1858, topic:200807”]

Pretty much… During a Meet situation I have to have someone call out my depth, other wise I tend to sink them extra deep. I will say its a by product of when I was much younger doing the Bodybuilding and going deep and it is subconsciously ingrained .
Glad to read you’ve got that figured out. Maybe the shoulder’s next?
Oh I have the shoulder more than figured out… It just a matter of me following my own common sense .
