Notes -
Yeah, like you said, these kind of injuries or pains just seem so absolutely flukey that it feels like pure guesswork trying to get rid of them or prevent them. Personally, I've had that with IT band issues in running. In principle, I know that these tend to be from weak glutes and/or hip flexors, but that still doesn't help me understand when and why it becomes a problem. I've rolled through training months with consistent 60-70 mile weeks and zero pain only to wind up on the shelf from much less, much lower intensity work later in the year. Why? Well, if I knew, I would do something about it.
