I didn't even realize I was flaring like that. I'm still dealing with pain in my left shoulder, and I assume that's what caused it, but not 100% sure. I ice it regularly, but I'm not sure if it's healing. So I will especially work on keeping my elbows tucked. It's funny how I don't even notice it that much until someone else points it out. It's especially obvious when I compare to the Lillibridges.
I'm not sure what I'm going to do about a spotter. I can usually get someone random that happens to be there, even if it is a gym employee, but when someone doesn't really know what they're doing, it can effect me quite a bit mentally. I suppose I'll just have to be more instructive to them. I also need 3-5 minutes rest between sets when it gets heavy, so I'll just have to tell them that I'll come get them when it's time again. Like I said, on Monday, I'm going to try the half rack, and maybe I can keep tight enough without a hand off there. However, the bench will be even worse. I'll just have to experiment with different scenarios.
I'm looking forward to Monday now, because I'm really going to focus on getting my elbow tucked better and keeping my legs solid until I add the drive. I'll be thinking about ripping the bar apart. I haven't actually used that cue much.
Thanks for the encouragement. I really needed it.
