Notes - This was a very good training session.  Felt solid, these movements compliment each other so well.  Got a pretty nice pump actually in the chest from doing this many push-ups, which was cool.  I don't do a ton of horizontal chest training (i.e. don't bench anymore) and push-ups will always be a hell of a great exercise.  I don't like to push the numbers as I want to watch my elbows since they get a hell of a lot of work each week from KBs, pull-ups etc. but 50 is not an issue.  Great work set and a real nice training effect today.

Notes - Writing this finally Wed night.  Was feeling pretty good Tuesday.  Moving well.  Wanted to go pretty light given that I had done a lot of training the day before, and in the afternoon, so a little less recovery time than I usually have. By the end of the day I was tight in my R side rhomboid on the back, which is not unusual for me particularly with snatching (old injury area, lots of strain from baseball).  Minor thing and I did a lot of lacrosse ball work last night and mobility and things really responded well, plus a good night's sleep helped.
