9:15am - Complete
Notes - Made some progress today. Saw my acupuncturist / bodyworker at the end of the day and we diagnosed that my QL on the left side was super tight, had some muscle spasms as we worked through the session. Good news is earlier I was able to squat 5x5 at 395, went pretty well, left hip (QL) was speaking up coming out of the hole, I hope this session this evening will clear it up further. On Friday I did one single at 405 and it felt patently awful, so this was a major improvement in 3 days so that's good. No issues at all on the bench and actually that was a 5x5 PR at 267.5. Finished with one set of DL at 325, no issues, did notice the hip but wasn't a problem and again I hope this continues to clear up this week.
