215, 225 x X x 2, 205 x 1 x 5, laterals rear delts rev pushdowns

 This was a very solid day. I took 215 and it was the strongest one in a long time so I took 225 and almost made it 

What I did realize is that I need MORE starting speed with 225 than even 220. I tend to stay pretty  consistent regardless of the weight but I think I need more, without changing the technique

First time also in forever I've made 5 downsets with 205

175.0 exactly at workout time

Sunday ruck

 Ah yes the blessed time change back! love it

45 lb

1:20 ( LOTS of doggo breaks lol)

good tempo strong finish

32 kg swings 20 x 10 ( 31 min) 32 kg belt squats 3 x 10, pullaparts

 Switched my technique back to a more quad dominant technique and didn't worry about bell height  at all. Liked it.Much faster per rep pace and much less hip/back involvement

How I used to swing when I was doing 10 x 10/10 with the big bells

Thursday Ruck PR

 Great day! THE SHOULDER FELT NORMAL! Unbelievable. This one had me worried. Made the lower bar rack adjustment and everything was strong. No clunking, plus realizing the low(er) rack position is important.

Need to add these in every so often

179 x 1 x 8, 20 kg swings 5 x 5/5,laterals, rev band pushdowns

 Shoulder felt 85% normal when I got moving in the morning but as soon as I loaded the bar a bit it started aching. Not terrible but not right. Definitely felt like first rib was still partly out and bicep tendon a bit too

Took it pretty easy and the groove and reps were solid

Put the bar a touch lower than monday  and that felt right
