Erectors still sore... and mild aches all over

Achilles insertion felt much better out of bed this morning, and no discomfort walking downstairs for the first time in the last month.
Finger tendon also improving - much less pain now when pressed.
Left Adductor Gracilis tendon insertion slightly better

Pretty hard and started to shake a bit on the last few reps.

kinda like a Copenhagen plank, but bottom leg is bent and I rest my upper body on the ground

C) SSB Calf Raise eccentric - single leg - 1 cm elevated in oly shoes, 10 sec hold at top, 6 sec eccentric - BW x3, 30kg x3, 50kg x3, 60kg 2x2

Still achey all over
Normally would have trained today, but didn't feel like it, so more rest

I have this dull ache in my inner left quad/VMO area - I kept thinking it was a VMO strain, but it hasn't healed in weeks.
I can feel it when I walk downstairs slowly, at the top of Bulgarian split squats
But now I think it's the Adductor Gracilis tendon insertion. That whole area hurts when pressed.
So it's time to rehab it, yep ISOs .....

Most quad dominant single leg work seems to bother it, narrow stance squats and knee forward deadlifts, but not Wide stance squats and sumo deadlifts

partial Copenhagan plank ISO 3x 30secs

Still a bit achey all over

I've been babying my left patella tendon and achilles with  high rep/duration work and low loads.
tendons need >70% intensity to create structural changes.
At least after the flare up has died down.
So making changes today

F*ck Sony, under Muso TNT, deleted my secondary gaming YouTube channel...
All those years of work making, uploading and editing my videos down the tubes
Plus losing whatever subs I had.
What gives Sony the right to just do things like this?!
And you can't even reverse it

Wow that really really sucks! Building it up slowly, creating a context, an audience, a style, giving it work and hours... and then its gone, poof!
No reasoning given? Some kind of terms of use violation or sth?

I uploaded some Gran Turismo 7 gameplay videos, I was given 3 copyright strikes from Muso TNT, in the space of a few hours, while I was asleep.
You have 3 strikes before anything happens and it resets after 3 months I believe.
So didn't to get a chance to delete them.
I tried to appeal via Youtube page but it keeps saying the email doesn't exist....
Also emailed Muso TNT, but I doubt they give a damn... this is the same company that copyright striked videos to censor anyone even talking about the Last of US 2 leaks and memes.....  :uhcomeon:

This copyright strike business is sure getting abused

Poor sleep, even more stress

While walking today my left mid bottom foot feels a bit beat up, like plantar fasciitis type ache
So I stumbled a bit when moving at the Optometrist today, which made my quads do a very sudden burst contraction,
and my left patella tendon shot out pain... ophhh so it's still nowhere near ready to jump..... :/
Probably time to up the tendon rehab
