Nothing much to report. Just a solid session. One thing I’m making a better effort on is locking out. Often, if I’m doing “touch-and-go”, I will go to extension, but may not fully lock out (e.g. 98%). I’m trying to go all the way, certainly on assistance work like the pushdowns… get that squeeze.

Otherwise… I just can’t wait to start phase 2 next week. 🙂
