    That's the first time I've ever done pin presses. Interesting. Definitely going to consider making them a more regular part, considering how much of a sticking point that is for me.

    Also back to running. I started before, then ripped my toe open and stopped. Starting up again now.

    Something's off with my right shoulder. I noticed it being a bit achy during Monday's lifting, but today it actually interfered with what I had planned.

    Not sure if it counts as a superset the way I was doing it, so I suppose I was actually doing circuit training. I think I'm going to have to admit that my strength is somehow really down this much. Whatever the reason, I'm consistently way down on just about everything. Even 365 on front squat was dang near @10.

    Also, I'm super out of shape. I've been fatter, but I don't know if I've ever been in worse cardio condition. I biked to Walmart after lifting, and even though it's only about 2 miles each way, I was struggling. To be fair, that's the first time I've really ridden a bike in... maybe a decade? But still, my childhood self would kick my current self's butt at this point.

    But hey, I'm working on it. Obviously I have lots of room to improve, so I'll look at it that way.

    Yet again, so many missed cleans. Man... I just cannot hit that bottom position correctly. I can power clean it all day, but trying to not lose it at the bottom of an overhead squat eludes me. I seem to be going backward on that part of technique.

    I'll get some video up in the next couple days so I can get some feedback. I'm always hesitant to put up video of not great form, but just getting feedback on your good sets kind of defeats the purpose.

    Also, my shoulders today:



    My right shoulder was acting up again. I noticed it a little with the last few snatches, but shook it off. No such luck with clean and jerk, or even just clean. The presses and front/side raises were basically just to work through the ROM. Felt a bit better by the end, at least.

    I mean... I can't comment on delicious, and thicker depends on what you're comparing them to, but I suppose they were indeed salty while I was working out. So... yes?

    Shoulder Ow x No
    Wasn't happening. Meh. Bit frustrated with training recently (rather large understatement), and this shoulder thing isn't helping.
