It's kinda hard for me to imagine your back problems come from your issues with your squat mechanics. I think those look great, especially since it's lifetime 5RM. Not even all that different in my eyes. But yea, Ianad.
ETA: Which part of "hips" does he even mean? Your squat was not back-heavy at all to begin with.
ETA2: Not saying he's wrong or anything, just having difficulty seeing what he has in mind
hips meaning glutes and all those ps muscles I think, idk anatomy that well. The outside of my very upper leg.
I also don't see anything different with my hips, at least from this angle. More of a feeling.
I don't think the problem was that I was using my back too much to lift the weight. I was using it to resist some twisting that was happening from using my hips weakly and unevenly. Maybe. Maybe I'm explaining it wrong. idk. Or maybe this dude is wrong, but I hope not.
He said get back to business immediately, but start light and lower the weight or shut things down if I can't maintain proper movement patterns. Do those 3 warmup movements before every session. I see him for 30 mins next week to make sure I don't regress.
I am pretty weak too but will not go miley cyrus (whatever that means) without putting up a fight
I lifted a few times without logging. It's very frustrating to spend a huge amount of time and (mostly mental) energy just to warmup and work up to 135 in the squat.
today was
warmup
squat 195x5x3
185x3 pj, 185x3x2 reg jerk
and that took an hour and 20 minutes lol. Probably the best I have felt since starting the pt though
