Focused on my hip flexors and low back (SI to be specific). Apparently I have extremely tight hips which is why I still get very tight SI from time to time which has to be relieved by rolling my glutes with a lacrosse ball as well as my hip flexor issues I've been getting. Need to keep on doing hip flexor stretches and piriformis stretches. Was told to not do any lower body movements for 48 hours so, will skip light deadlifts tomorrow and focus on bench, overhead work and back movements. | ||

Will you be competing at the British this year? Thanks man appreciate the kind words, yeah that's the plan! BW: 72.9kg (I have no idea how I woke up so much heavier as I didn't increase my food intake, weighed about the same as I got in though so I know its mostly water weight from being more sedentary over the weekend) Squat Barx5,5 60x5 100x5 130x1 Belt on: 150x1 @7.5 170x1 @9 162.5x3 @10 Used the springy weightlifting bar again which felt like crap on my back. I really need to buy my own power bar so I don't have to play 50/50 with getting the decent bar when its busy  Paused Bench + Touch and Go Dropset Barx5 40x5 50x3 60x1 80x1 @7.5 90x1 @9 85x7 @10 touch and go (PB) Pull Ups 5x10 | ||
