    I'm going to get me a tennis ball to day in the hopes of calming down my piriformis somewhat which has definitely been acting up again since I started lifting.

    Grr.

    Fire_Rock, I'm not certain how I come out of the hole.

    I'm planning to lift tonight so I'll see if I can make a video of my form.

    Try to pull the floor apart with your feet.

    If you stand with your feet shoulder width apart with your hands on your hips and pull the floor apart, you'll feel your hip flexors fire. Do that at the bottom of the squat.

    Disclaimer: the floor won't actually pull apart, unless you're on roids or creatine

    That's so awesome! I love you for that! No, seriously, I needed to read this.
