Notes - Finally getting to logging this on Saturday morning. Great training session.  I really like how my back and adductors have been feeling lately.  Likely a number of reasons, but the adjustments in training are clearly helping.  Separately blocks of squats and presses seems good for me right now.  Doing both particularly in the same training day didn't seem to help.  The bodyweight movements continue to be a very good thing.  My glutes and abs feel turned on, tightness and overload on the adductors has subsided.  Need to keep this rolling.
