Today went overall well.

Close-grips felt weird. I’m thinking about bringing a micrometer to the gym to check the diameter of a few bars, because even 1mm makes such a difference in feel. 🙂 But setting that aside, just something right-shoulder-wise felt a little unstable. Not bad, just not totally in the groove. I do think in part it’s equipment related, but life rolls on.

Anyways all in all I’m digging how arm day goes. Pump is real. Really focusing on quality of movement, muscular contraction. It’s good stuff.
