No pain during the squats, just some tightness in the low back. Did have some pain during RDLs if I bent over at the hips and dropped my head down, too. The pain got pretty intense but has subsided. Typical tightness/weakness in the hip joint. Had a bit of pain in the sacrum during squat, but nothing bad. Getting a deep-tissue massage this evening and seeing a chiropractor friend tomorrow to have a look-see.

Agile 8

Hip/right side of lower back was tight as usual. The pain on the right side of my lower back only kicked in if I bent forward at the hips and hung my head down, and it was less intense than usual. After the RDLs my whole lower back was tight, but by the time I got home, everything seemed to loosen up. Some of the pain is still there if I bend forward, but it's not bad. I want to SQUAT HEAVY!
