Notes - Writing this late Wed night.  Good session, my left hip / top of hamstring / adductor has been acting up a bit, squatting today may not have helped it too much, though it started feeling better this evening.  It's been nice to keep this issue at bay for some time but frustrating that it is still clearly latent, hasn't gone away and is something I have to watch pretty closely.

Notes - Nice, easy session today.  Left shoulder continues to head back to normal I believe.  Keeping up with the mobility work.  Left low back / top of hamstring was a bit tight yesterday but much better today.  Likely from pressing on Monday.  That came up throughout this entire cycle, though it was less of an issue with every week.  Something to be aware of.  Not quite sure how to get that to go totally away.  I am wondering if I can get tighter in the abs and glutes for pressing or some other technique improvements that would help.  Ballastics seem to be really good as a counter balance and I respond well since I have fixed my hinge (swings, snatches).
