..The past several months my hips had really been shot for squatting (this is after a year of hitting a lot of raw PRs at lighter bodyweights than I'd ever been). I'm focusing right now on dropping my training maxes, being patient, and being a foundation for squat again, working within what my hip will allow. I'm making my focus on quality reps during primary work, and then a lot of assistance work, and pushing the secondary squats that don't aggravate my hip as much.
