Notes - An extremely encouraging training session.  14 sets, pressing the 36kg, that is a hell of a lot of sets.  Actually I am almost certain I did 15 sets as I lost count.  The key here is that I was nowhere near failure even on the last set.  I really feel like I am starting to own the 36kg, which is a huge accomplishment.  Shit I remember talking about trying to own the 32kg.  This is fucking awesome.  Also mixing in 1H SW again, taking it slow and being smart, but these are feeling good for sure.  Whatever may have been up with my technique on these previously I think has resolved itself.  I have really been focusing on locking down the lat and waiting for the bell as long as possible before hinging.  I think all in all, things have been coming together with better sleep, a focus on mobility, the incorporation of some yoga practice about once a week, and improved shoulder mechanics as well on the press with the increased focus on an active negative (not overly but enough to keep that scapula locked down and in an improved groove overall).  I saw my chiropractor today as well and he commented on how good my shoulders were moving, sitting on the body, etc.  Very encouraging stuff here.
