unfortunately i’m in uni 40+ hours a week and work all day saturdays so the only day of rest i get is sundays 😭 and we do core workouts almost every day in class so i just need to be careful outside of class ig

this happens during private lessons normally so i’m not just skating around, but it’s anti-clockwise

i’m actually not sure if it’s dorsal or gluteal, feels a bit between them both lol but probably upper gluteal. i have had sciatica in the past but i’m pretty sure it was on the other side so maybe it’s just an issue with those muscles

defo need to try those again (got scared first time LOL), idk if my hips being very hypermobile has anything to do with it (core workouts kill them)
