since I've started the log I've been home probably 6 total hours where I'm not sleeping, cleaning, doing work, homework, studying, preparing food, rushing out the door, or trying to spend some time with my babies (cats) who I haven't seen in a week.
So I'll try to get some starting pics up tomorrow

Yo Eric - I suspect my overly tight hips are robbing me of proper squat depth. Any stretches and/or SMR techniques you can reccommend?

Yes sir, I'm doing a week of hyphy, week of strenfOriginally Posted by Pikku
depends on where you are tight, could be in the IT bands, TFL, piriformis, glutes, hip flexors, etc.Originally Posted by ErickStevens
But a foam roller is not just a tool to reduce tightness, but also to find it. Spend 10 minutes rolling on your ITs and TFLs, and then your glutes, use a tennis or soft ball if you can in the medial glutes and see where it makes you wanna jump off the ball/foam roller the most
