"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."
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.
175 x 1 185 x 1 195 x 1 205 x 1 210 x 1 205 x 1 x 4
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
I was tired and sore from Monday so it took extra long to warmup and get dynamic. On days like this I SHOULD go lighter for the first 4-5 sets. it make no sense to grind on wednesay
Out of the 13 sets only 4-5 were decent. the technique was right but everything was tight. didn't really feel comfortable under the bar. even the bar wasn't sitting that well on my chest
