Weekend's Progress Log

[O_RYAN_007]

Thanks for all the advice here! One thing I can tell you is that deadlifts are pretty much my favorite compound lift, I do them weekly, and I can not (have never) wake up fatter the day after a deadlift session. I can literally eat as many calories as I want of any type and cannot gain fat. Maybe that's my low body fat secret. This does not happen with any other exercise for me.

I'm the same way when it comes to deadlift training. I'm harder and leaner the next couple days after DL training. I do crazy amounts of heavy low rep sets though, so I feel its to be expected for that type of stuff.

135x8
225x6
275x5
325x2
395x2

Nice going on the PRs... sorry to hear about the hip strain.

Yeah I can't tell if its joint pain from having low estrogen for so long or a minor muscle pull..

Join the club weekend! I can't squat or deadlift for at least another month thanks to a torn calf!

The hip may just be a strain in the hip flexor or other muscle from the deads. Either way I would give them a rest for a few weeks otherwise that strain may become a tear and really mess up your stuff.

Oh oh, my hip has been hurt for 2 weeks since a workout where I did sumo deads and sumo squats, felt no pain during and then it hurt later. Feels deep in the hip, like under my hip flexor. But deadlifts yesterday I felt nothing. It's only when I squat with a stance wider than shoulder width and with depth below parallel. It's almost better I was gonna try to squat next week and I'm gonna do leg extensions today.

How come?

lower back pain on the right side each and every time I try deadlifting and/or other posterior chain movements...

Stretching hips for a while helps a little but wont do it... can't even tell you what happened, one day it was just like that. The week before I was setting PR's and the next week bam! form was decent so i'm pretty sure it's not a bad movement issue
