Notes - Writing this Tuesday evening. This morning was a struggle. Woke up tight, not enough rest. Eventually got stretched out and by the end I was actually feeling pretty good. That right shoulder (lat/armpit, pec) is tight man, and it needs a lot of attention to get loosened up. I worked some mobility, lacrosse ball, actually focused on the hips quite a bit. Once I got to doing light TGUs and SLDLs, I was feeling good. And actually felt pretty good all day today, tightness alleviated a lot. I suspect that the SFG weekend was very hard on my shoulders, and I while I am feeling strong I may have some residual tightness that is cropping up because possibly I am not completely recovered, not sure. I feel good, very strong with the lifts and everything but I shouldn't have this much work to do to get warmed up, etc. As I said yesterday it may make sense to have a lower body focused cycle that works a couple days of squats, with less overhead work for a few weeks over the holidays, let strength build from the ground up. Perhaps one day of presses, or maybe a snatch day for overhead work and no pressing for a cycle. Kind of odd to come off a press-focused cycle that I am doing and into very little pressing but we'll see what Kevin has to say about all of these ideas.
