Stretching, foam rolling, mobility work like every day. I've been focusing on ankle mobility a good bit. Ordered some new resistance bands and also some lacrosse balls to unleash more pain on myself.

Sounds like my life too. What sort of mobility work and so forth do you do? I'm especially interested in ankle mobility.

[QUOTE=snLassen;1013438493]Sounds like my life too. What sort of mobility work and so forth do you do? I'm especially interested in ankle mobility.[/QUOTE]Agile 8 and a bunch of stuff from Mobility WOD. Also a few things from strengthcamp (Elliott Hulse's channel on YouTube)...
For ankle specifically, I usually get into a squat stretch, hold onto something (ordered a new resistance band to help with this, among other things) and then shift weight onto one ankle (pushing in various directions), making sure the foot stays flat on the ground while the ankle is stretched.
Mobility WOD has a video on it of course: [url]http://www.mobilitywod.com/2012/02/tight-ankles-bad-squatting.html[/url]

nice squatting. I see the frequency template is taking it's toll on your body.

[QUOTE=Jasonk282;1013453263]nice squatting. I see the frequency template is taking it's toll on your body.[/QUOTE]Thanks. Don't really have any aches yet, but I'm definitely feeling the fact that most of the time I'm lifting 4 days in a row with 1 day of rest inbetween. I'll go back to around 4 days per week next cycle. The stretching, mobility, etc. stuff isn't really new, I just never mentioned it before. I am trying out a few new things with it, thanks to stuff I'm reading/watching both on here and on some other resources.

Lifts are looking strong dude, I just made my own 5/3/1 log, after years of not focusing on lifting at all, i'm back at it and hoping to hit some high numbers before 2014 is here.

That sounds great, man. Checking out your log now. Good luck with the weight loss, what is your goal weight on this cut?
-
Planks are a b$tch, but absolutely worth it bro. I'm going to be putting them in a couple of times a week post my back blowout.
Solid deadlifting as usual bro.

Absolutely bro, definitely my lesson is concentrate a little more on the less glamorous core strength. Cheers on the back, fingers crossed just a small set back (badoom tish).

[QUOTE=mmorton;1014718033]daddy likes the volume.[/QUOTE]Thanks. Will be easier to handle next cycle with more rest days.

[QUOTE=ulsak;1014729433]you mean next wave?[/QUOTE]Nah, finishing this cycle with high frequency. Then back to about 4 lifting days per week next cycle.

Tried out some yoga stretches today. That sh!t really challenges your flexiblity. Lots of ankle and hip mobility stuff, foam rolling, lacrosse balling, etc. as well. Not sure if I'll do the squat workout tomorrow or take a day off.

I'm doing them like this pretty much:
