Nothing to write home about. It’s deloading.

I did mess up on the top-sets tho. Was to do 230, did 260 – data entry typo. 🙂

In other news, I am going to start seeing someone tomorrow about my shoulder/arm issues. Again, the more I investigate and discuss the issue, the more I am sure it’s shoulder/upper-back issues. I also am growing in support of the notion that posture has been the silent contributor, and lifting just exposed it. So I’m really working to address posture issues, throughout my day.

For example, I’m going to see if I can rearrange some things in my office so I can perhaps stand part of the day. While one can still slouch a bit while standing, it’s nothing as bad as one can get while sitting.

The main problem for me is sticking with it. I often have these cycles of posture fail then posture correct, repeat. I need to make this a constant. I have to work on it. I have to improve on it, probably more so than getting my lifting numbers up, y’know?
