Notes - Writing this on Sunday evening.  After experiencing a lot of issues after training on Friday, which was massively disappointing after a few good days last week, an exceptional bodywork and acupuncture session on Thursday, Kevin and I did another reset for the training template, trying to do things that are corrective in nature / feel good (bird dogs, crawling) with KB movements that don't seem to aggravate things.  I felt pretty good all day yesterday on Saturday after training, went to a wedding yesterday evening, was fine.  Woke up Sunday morning and had a bad morning - didn't feel good yet again.  This has been a roller coaster.  I spent quite a bit of time during the Seahawks game stretching, doing soft rolls, hip flexor stretch, other OS work, supine groin stretch etc. and my body really responded well.  I seem to be very responsive to the OS work these days.  I can just tell I have some fairly significant cross body issues between my left shoulder (poor ROM, sensitive in the overhead position, arm just doesn't move smoothly as it should) and my right hip / lat (tight, right low lat lit up - these things are absolutely related.  The right hip and lat I am certain is pulling on my left side and that is why I actually feel the most discomfort in my left side).

What is going on here I think is the result of 7-8 months of intense activity in my personal life as it relates to getting engaged in February, signing for our new house in March, job issues in May, getting keys to the new house in June, selling my old house in July, turning 40 years old in August, and now, about to quit my job after 17 years and start a new one.  That's a ridiculous amount of stuff in one relatively short period of time and it's any wonder that now my body is barking a bit.  It's surprising this did not pop up sooner.  It's going to take some regrouping here, focusing on resting my body, and as far as training goes, doing things that are helpful and feel good, and going to have to set aside normal goals.  I am going to try and get into Kinetic this week for a check up as well as doing some other recuperative work.  This is a challenging time and I am hoping I can experience some consistent progress soon.
