Notes - So I made a very conscious decision to switch up the weekend training and do something much more in the "grease the groove" vein with very light weights and a little bit different than what my main training has been.  So I opted for double bells, but very light at 16kgs.  I am writing this the next day on Sunday afternoon after taking an hour walk and man I feel much better than last weekend, better recovery, this was a much smarter training selection.  I am realizing that going at KBs two days in a row, which is rare for me but can happen, absolutely requires that one of the two days be lighter load.  It's where I am at right now, and that's fine.  What is very good is that on the heavier load days, I am doing well and making a lot of progress.  The issue for me is recovery time.  There is a significant amount of stress in my life and I am always trying to combat that.  It really eats into recovery abilities.  For me it's not about can I handle a heavy load on pure strength alone.  I can.  I have proven that.  What my issue is that I don't give enough and put enough into recovery and over time that will cause issues among those injuries.  What's important here is first to establish the self awareness and two over time make changes.
