Gave myself a week off from lifting anything and just focused on stretches and some push-ups, air squats, etc. to keep loose.

Monday I went to the garage and did 20 minutes of alternating swings and presses. Later in the day I noticed that for the first time since the initial injury I didn't feel any tightness in my back. Wednesday I did 20 minutes of alternating clean and squats with my 24kg with pull-ups, and so far so good. If/when I return to the gym I think I'll stick to either Trap Bar or easy strength style deadlifts, but working hip hinge pattern is definitely an important tool here. I have also been keeping up with the McGill Big 3 as part of my warm-up.
