Hi,
My right leg (hamstring and hip) hurts really bad in the morning. Getting out of bed, sitting up, walking standing hurt. But as I move around in the morning the pain decreases. But the first hour of the day is really pain ful and i can barely sit up in a chair without pain. After a longer walk it is good enough to train with, throughout the rest of the day the pain will be “moderate”, sometimes gone but back again in the morning.
this pain or tightness does effect my deadlift alot and squat a little bit. But I can still do them with less weight than usual. But with deadlift hip will start feeling bad/hurt at a certain weight, and on the squat I can still do close to normal weight, but with a lot of discomfort. In the squat the hip isn’t bothered as much, it more feels like a strain on the right leg’s hamstring, if I try to go “heavy” but keeping weight light, don’t know 70% 1rM? it feels ok. Both squat and deadlift I can feel big difference on leg strength. The “healthy” left leg feels much more stronger.
My training right now looks similar the bridge 1.0 but with a bit more volume. Strength training 4 x week and 2 30 min cardio session on treadmil/crosstrainer or whatever is avalible at the gym. I also walk a lot outside of the traning.

I’ve had this problem now for over a week, and I wounder if there is something I can do or if it will just go away by itself? I’ve adjuested loads on the squat and the deadlift, trying to find weight that don’t hurt and feels good when I do train them, but the pain is still there in the morning.

I have not taken a “low stress week” in a very long time, but if I’m not trying to peak for a 1rm is that needed?
Thanks in advance
The hamstring feels relieved after deadlifts though for a few hours after.
