Notes -   Much better day today.  The rehab work at Kinetics yesterday afternoon seemed to relieve a lot of what I was feeling in the low back from over the weekend.  I was tight in the shoulders and lats today, mainly on the R side.  Not totally sure how floor presses are sitting with me.  I seem to tighten up after doing these.  I may need to figure something out to balance out that movement so the pecs don't tighten up so much.  Got a nice brisk walk done in the evening for an hour, that felt extremely good which also included some hanging from pull-up rings to stretch out my lats, shoulders, etc.  Finished off the day with a small bit of Indian Club practice.  Time to train with Kevin tomorrow and see where we go from here.

4:30pm - Kinetics rehab appt



Late evening  - Indian Clubs, 5 minutes

Notes - Didn't have it at all today.  Body did not feel good.  Extremely run down.  Low back was acting up again, could have been from the running with the kids at the lake Saturday, or just the combination of everything over the weekend, but it feels like two steps back again.  Man this is frustrating.  Had another rehab appt at Kinetics in the afternoon which was helpful, and got in a 30 minute walk at the lake as well.  I got in an hour walk yesterday evening at dusk.  The walks are good, and are definitely helpful and good to get that low-load, cardio for the heart.  That and pull-ups are damn near the only things that seem to be ok these days (alright a bit of an exaggeration but seriously I sure seem stuck in a rut).  Time to hit reboot and start it over tomorrow.
