I have been having a problem squatting for the past week or so. It seems when I go down, my hip flexors are EXTREMELY TIGHT esp. on the right hand side. I am an avid stretcher (well, I always stretch after working out and sometimes on other days). I can think of two things–
-
I have been using squats in every program I have done for the past 4-5 months. Is it time for a break from squats? Maybe do some single leg bulgarian type.
-
Should I do deads before squats even if I had been prioritizing hams and glutes over quads in 2 out of the last 3 programs??
What stretches would you guys recommend??
Any Help is appreciated.
