Hi folks
I suspect a possible leg length discrepancy in my right side for a number of reasons;
- uneven stance during squats and deadlifts - most noticeably in deadlift as one leg appears to touch the bar at a higher point on my shin than the other
- slight heel lift on one side at the bottom of the squat
- increasingly uneven bar as a set progresses - as I fatigue during squats in particular one side seems to ‘drop’ more than the other - can be evidenced by plates sliding on this side
- ‘windmilling’ of the bar as a set progresses in squat, press and deadlift - possibly from twisting to one side
- recurring sciatic/hip/lower back pain on one when weights start to become challenging that lasts unless I take a break from squatting and deadlifting heavy for a few weeks
The last point is particularly frustrating as I am struggling to make progress with constant layoffs and resets. Just posting to ask are these common tell-tales of LLD issues? If not what are in your experience? What is the best way to go about diagnosing and treating/working around?
Aside - thank you for all the incredible content you guys continue to put out.
Many thanks
Jim
