I tried a bunch of squat variations like squatting to and from pins and partial ROM but I couldn't find anything decent and got pretty frustrated. Nordic curls, RDLs, and kneeling squats do work (bad ROM on the kneeling squats though)... I'll regroup mentally and see what I can do. I'd love to find some useful quad exercise that doesn't use the hips or machines I don't have.
I am slipping on my other lifts because I'm really demotivated, but I'll try and get those going too.

Going to try squatting again. Hopefully it's not too soon. Not doing my full working weight for at least the first week even if it feels alright.
05/12
Beltless highbar w/ 3-ct pause: 315x3, 365x3
Air squat: 3 x BWx20
Felt okay but not perfect. Oddly enough my hip doesn't really hurt squatting, but sometimes when I shift while locked out, or unrack, I feel it. Have to be careful and deliberate if I'm going to make it work. My right knee feels a bit tight but nothing serious (yet). I didn't feel like my sides were even but that's not surprising and I'm not too worried about it.

I thought I did 8 reps on the Nords last time and wondered why the last few were so difficulty and cheaty this time. Hah. Adjusted back down. My approach for these is to fix it at a certain band assistance until the reps are clean, then reduce assistance and repeat. Awkward progression but what can you do.

Small hip circuit that felt great: hollow body hip stretch, internal rotation with pivoting knees forward/back, squat knees in and out, and squat knees forward.
Tomorrow I plan to do Nordic curls and front rack holds. Loosely I'm hoping to see if I can figure out any safe lats work.

Yesterday I arm wrestled the great Devon Larratt. What a treat! He is mind bogglingly strong.
Today's session was bad. I went in hoping to double 320kg from 3.5" blocks but it wasn't happening today. I got it a couple inches off the ground but I couldn't really do anything with it. I wanted to skip today's session earlier, but I took a nap and headed out anyway. Should've known not to expect too much today, but I'm still trying not to get too down about it. I really should be able to do more even on a bad day though. Bleh. Even after all these years training, I never really learned to brush off the bad days without hearing "maybe I'm a lot weaker than I think" in the back of my mind.
One day at a time! I'll get to do some good stuff soon. My overall trend is positive.
I really, really miss squatting though. Hip is getting a tiny bit better each week, but damn this takes forever. I'm not pulling 700lbs this year unless I can get some good squatting going. I will though. Just have to be patient for now. We're only halfway through the year and I'm happy with some of the DL PRs happening recently.

Not sure what's happening with my front rack, can't stay conscious for the last two weeks. That usually happens really rarely.
Update on the squats: I'm well enough off that I'll try some light squats again tomorrow. It feels like my original pain is gone but my IT band is sensitive now (almost like it's snapping over the greater trochanter), and as the reps got higher yesterday I started feeling some lateral pressure. Today the original pain is still gone but I feel some IT-area sensitivity. I'm stretching and doing some tissue work (and that's actually part of the sensitivity) but I think/hope it'll be healthy and good to squat in a controlled way if I can get away with it. We'll see. To be honest, I'm getting a little bit impatient too. If at any point I wake up and feel like I ****ed up, I will dial back, of course. But so far it's alright...

Beltless highbar: 135x10, 2 x 145x10, 155x10, 155x20
Some squat warm up/pain avoidance notes:
- glutes work, definitely good: banded hip extension, single leg glute bridges
- glutes work, could be good or bad: glute med side plank clam shells, hip airplanes
- rolling, probably good: lacrosse ball around the TFL area, just find the two or three bad spots and hold 'til pain dies down
- rolling, could be good or bad: more around the IT/trochanter with either roller or ball
- stretching, probably good: knees in IR, squat ER/IR, squat knees forward knee drops, lying quad/psoas stretch, hollow hold psoas stretch
- stretching, maybe good: pigeon pose
- stretching, could be good or bad: this one pretty extreme IR bed stretch
edit: another good stretch - lie on back, left leg in the 90-90 position, left ankle in left hand, right heel against left knee, stretch quad/psoas, straighten trunk/tense abs/posterior hip rotation to increase stretch, play with angles

Might be time for a deload. Today's only rep was slower than my 3rd with 615 last time. Just felt rough. And my other lifts have been feeling bad too. Not sure how to fit that in with my rehab and lighter workload... this is pretty unusual and I'll have to play it by ear. Maybe cut out as much non-rehab work as possible, other than balancing/prehab lifts.

OK trying to deload but I'm keeping my simple bench progression to rebuild load tolerance and all that. Matching it with some pulling/back work.
I will also do some very light squatting, depending on how my hip feels.

Oh, to add, I'm thinking my residual hip issues are based around my TFL. I'm having a lot of luck lacrosse rolling out the TFL, doing some TFL stretches, then doing glute med/max work and some adductor stretching too. I lose a lot of that side hip pain, but it doesn't last. I'm hoping if I'm consistent with this kind of work it'll go away permanently soon and I can get some real squatting in again. Part of it might still just be time. Most people with bursitis (GTPS) issues seem to take a really long time to recover. It took me a really long time when it was the other hip, but I don't remember exactly how long. I had some other issues after too but I think I can avoid them this time.
