Notes - OK, encouraging here.  Trading messages with Kevin, he suggested that I check my swing stance by using the "jump test" to set my feet.  By doing so, I discovered that I definitely have been doing too wide lately.  Using the jump test, stance was narrower than what I had been using for sure.  I have thought about this and the wide stance, particularly with 1H SW last week on Wed, probably greatly fired up my adductors.  That, and doing so for 10 minutes.  So dropping to 5 minutes today with a better stance, I am immediately noticing an improvement for absolute certain.  Better engagement of the glutes, way less on the adductors and outer quads / IT as well.  This is big, but I am pissed I did not think of this.  As I write this, my right elbow is sore, which is a thing that has been cropping up.  I am going to keep focusing on shoulder work, rolling, hitting the trap and other shoulder stabilizers with the lacrosse ball etc. as this is usually the sign of shoulder stuff and not the elbow.  Also continuing to do the band and sledgehammer work etc.
