Feeling good today other than sore abs, especially along my sides.  This is awesome though because even after workouts I think are going to make my abs sore they often are not that bad...so I know this time I really did something or actually used them :).  The 1 1/4  back squats kicked my ass.  Seriously.  Each set the last 5 were a real struggle to keep good form and not tip forward.  I wanted to take weight of the bar but didn't.  I went on the lighter side on the sumo dl's since this has always been a delicate position for my right hip/butt.  I added the video to be sure there weren't any gaping flaws in my positioning.  The right hip does kinda 'pinch' and it feels deep in the joint.  The right hami/butt seem to 'catch' a little bit too throughout the movement especially compared to the left side that feels smooth and strong.  Nothing 'hurt' per say, I just wanted to try and explain what I feel in that position.  The amrap was tough, mostly because of the step ups.  I was pretty satisfied with how I managed my breath and held the hb holds for long sets...and you know what- I just now realized that I did 'bent knee hb holds' not regular ones!  Oops...that would have been harder lol.  Windmills were a great stretch.  Mobility went well...my right glutes had balled up at some point and I think the mobility stuff saved me some issues tomorrow.  Thanks!
