Houston we have a problem!!!!
I mentioned yesterday that my left butt hurt when I was running, well this morning I was scheduled a 45min run – I didn’t even make the end of the road! My left side could not hold the weight & was collapsing as I was running – had to stop & walk back home.
So swapped the WODs around and did AMRAP for 15mins 5 x 50kg DL + 10 burpees + 15squats managed 9rounds. The deadlifts were hard due to this pain in my left side & I can’t get in to see my physio til Friday!
I did trigger point last night & had referral pain from the rolling so not sure if the regular work I have been doing with this since Thursday is what has caused this pain???

Could be a piriformis issue.
“The piriformis laterally rotates the extended thigh and abducts the flexed thigh. Abduction of the flexed thigh is important in the action of walking because it shifts the body weight to the opposite side of the foot being lifted, which keeps us from falling.”
Your physio is the best person to suss it out, but not being able to see them to Friday is a problem. See if you can get on their cancelation list.
Re this: “I did trigger point last night & had referral pain from the rolling so not sure if the regular work I have been doing with this since Thursday is what has caused this pain???”
Are you asking if the rolling and TP stuff has caused the issue?? Unlikely, although it may have brought an underlying issue to the surface.

Thanks for the reply Jason, I’m on the cancellation list – I can get in to see another physio but I would rather wait for the guy I normally see as he knows all my history & has always managed to sort me out.
Yes I was thinking that this had something to do with the TP work I have been doing, but I think you may be right about the fact that it may have just uncovered an issue I already had – as I have had piriformis & hamstring issues in the past – I’ll see how it goes.
