Re: August Monthly [censored] Thread
I've been having the same problem playing basketball after a long stretch of sedentary living. Check out kyleb's thread about rotator cuff exercises.
It's also probably just a factor of using muscles you aren't used to. |

Re: August Monthly [censored] Thread
Speaking of injury, I've been easing my way back into squats after pulling both sides of my groin a month ago. Anything past a half squat, and I can feel the tendons start to grind and pop. I've been taking more and more time off between sessions to heal, up to a week and a half currently. How long should I expect this to take to get back to 100%?

[/ QUOTE ] I think that's a little extreme, depending on the severity of the injury if you take the time off and rehab properly you can get back to 100%. It might take a few months though, but groin injuries are not the ones to mess around with. |

I'll drop my squat to where I can go all the way down with no pain, and just keep working it until it gets better. It's a fine line though, between strengthening and repulling it. Hell, I just want to run full bore in time for my next softball league... |

Re: August Monthly [censored] Thread
I've been doing starting strength, so squatting 3 x per week and doing HIIT running 2 x per week. That was fine at first but I'm now up to 10 30 sec. sprints when I run and my squat has gone up. My legs are very fatigued and its affecting my squats. Should I drop a HIIT day, do shorter HIIT sessions, or do lighter squats once a week? Goal is to get to 180 lbs. by early Nov., I'm ~197 now.

Make the midweek squat session very light.

Re: August Monthly [censored] Thread
Bobby,
How long have you been doing HIIT? From what I've read, it's a good idea to take a week or two off every 6-8 weeks of it. I don't see the harm in skipping a few days to give your legs some extra recovery time. |
