Discomfort/Pain from Squatting
Been doing RIP’s SS routine for several weeks. Realized right away that I need to concentrate on form and flexibility. The squatting is bothering me in the Iliotibia Tract, Upper Hamstring, and the Piriformis/Glouteus Medias. I think those are the right terms. I just started doing the dynamic stretching shown in the squat rx vids. It hurts the most in the IT area. I dropped the weight 20lbs today and have no problem completing reps. But the discomfort/pain is still there. Don’t know if I should keep squatting and stretching or just stretch for awhile. Flexibility is going to take awhile, I still don’t have the hip crease at or below the patella. Thought I did but had somebody watch today and I'm not quite there. Could I have tried going too low too fast and did something to the IT area?
