Yeah actually, it does feel like its in my adductor, around where it attaches to the knee. I felt it when I was doing smolov mostly, otherwise it was fine until now.

Step ups help with it?

I think I really need to look at how I warm up for squats and deads, I don't think the couple minutes on the bike is enough lol

Yeh just strengthens that area a little more, uses a different ROM so that you actively train it and move it while it is slightly stretched (much like a lunge), plus gets you on one leg for a change.

If you are only doing the bike warmup you might be able to do something a bit better. Add some dynamic lunges (front, back and side), leg swings, GM's, etc that are stretch and movement based.

 

[Skeptic]

Yeah, thanks Tim, I'll look at adding some of those from now on

Age: 22
Weight: 93kg
Height: 173cm (?)

My projections are fucked at the moment because of my leg, but:
Squat - 178kg
Bench - 108kg
Deadlift - 195kg
MP - 76kg

Deadlift should be up past 200kg

Nice progress man.Hopefully your leg gets better ,then 200kg comes reality in squats and deads

 

[Skeptic]

Thanks man I want to be deadlifting 225kg by the end of the year and squatting over 200kg Both pretty achievable I reckon! I might even get them early if my leg holds up heh

Yeah, I think its mostly just teh lack of proper sleeping patterns due to uni. I'll just have to put a bit more effort into getting them solid.
