    I hope it stays that way and I can get to some decent weights.

    Well done on the squats. I'd have been happy with less than that given other tweaks.

    Good luck on the roof leak. Make sure the wood underneath is flat and square.
    I've had good luck with a "super bar" a flat-ish pry bar for lifting shingles (and nails) enough to get new shingles under the old.
    Doesn't hurt to dip any exposed nails in tar first. (pointy part). Not too proud to use screws.
    I'm no expert but I do have youtube. LOL.

    I bought a short squat rack due to roof clearance and it's just what I need and am pleased with it. Today I fabricated a chin bar on top of it and plan on trying to do some stretching as described in Dan John's video. Hopefully it will help my shoulders.

    Fred, I can tell you from my own personal experience that hanging, as well as that book on shoulder pain prevention and rehab, are well worth trying. I bought the book about two years ago, when I'd been dealing with pretty severe shoulder pain for a few months. After following the program and working on the hanging, my shoulders were pain-free. My mother also tried it, and greatly improved her own shoulder issues. I still do the hanging a couple times a week, and the rehab exercises from time to time, if my shoulders ache a little.
