How's your spoas feeling these days bro?
Spoas and hip flexors are still a little tight, I'm not quite at a 100% yet, but I was able to hit ME Squats last thursday with 85% without much pain at all. I've been stretching and rolling every afternoon since last week, and that's helped loosen me up tremendously! I'm down to 184 as of this morning. I didn't drink at all this weekend, so I'm down 2.5#s in 1 week. My strength hasn't suffered at all.

Today was squat day and I'm still feeling the pain in my hip flexor. It's just completely annoying at this time! I can do a couple squats without much pain, but today was RE squat day and we were doing sets of 8 with 65% of our max. It didn't feel too good, I just don't know what to do at this point. I'm not going to back out of the meet, but I'm worried if I push it too hard, I'm going to really fk things up. It doesn't bother me during deadlifts at all, it just hurts when i break parallel coming out of the whole.
I've been stretching everyday at lunch in the sauna, and rumble-rolling my entire body as well... So I'm doing everything I can do in the mobility/flexibility realm, but I still feel that damn pain. I don't think it's torn by any means, but I just can't figure it out.
Have you tried flossing the hips?

I do it twice a week. I had my wife do some trigger point release therapy last night and she also massaged the area. Its just an extremely sore hip flexor. I guess i need to add flossing when i stretch. i typically floss before i deadlift and squats. howlong to you recommend doing it?
This is close to the way I do it. Start at 30 sec.
