Got it- and no one has tried those things on me. Some minor success over the weekend: I ended up spending about 20 minutes working IR distraction angles on my left hip and actually drastically improved left hip IR and cleared a lot of the impingement feeling, it just took way longer than I thought it would. I think I’ll run with focusing on IR and smashing hip flexor/iliacus along with couch stretch. Thanks for the help! I’d give my left eye to get out to SFCF and be around Roop, Kstar, and Paoli for a month… This region needs their insight so badly…

Thanks again, and let me know if you make any progress!
