Has anyone hurt their hips doing back squats due to weak glutes and hip abductors? Should I take a break from squats and focus on strengthening glutes or continue to squat but with lighter load?

Do you hurt your hips? I hurt my lower back (glute muscles). I hurt them so bad I had to go to the ER.

I would go see a physical therapist. We're not doctors and even if someone chimes in with what you think is good lifting advice, they don't see your movement. Find a good PT who can look at your hip body and get a good routine from them

Both of you should stick to body weight squats and froggers for a stretch

You need to strengthen your lower back with good mornings and supermans

I went to the lease this last weekend. Not one drop of alcohol was had. That was the closest I’ve come to caving. 4 wheelers, killing dinner with big guns, doing manly things in God’s country. Beer is an absolute necessity during these events. Anyhow, I didn’t drink. Proud of myself. Monumental moment for me.

I didn't sleep well last night, and I'm super anxious/jittery today. A little dazed off too.
