Notes - This was really an outstanding session, I am so pleased. My adductors and quads have been tight and causing some discomfort this weekend, and I did a long yoga session last night which helped. I also realized during warm-ups that I could do a better job of locking down my glutes as a component of the clean to better set up pressing, keeping tension out of other supporting muscles and keeping the focus on tight glutes, using the lats. This was a noticeable improvement and made for ever better pressing as I think I was able to better sync and coordinate the tensing of the glutes at the same time as catching the bell in the rack to set up the presses. Really pleased with this. I will continue to focus on recovery methods and watching the legs, to ensure they don't get too wound up and tight in the hot spots. Overall though, really good.
