Comments - Thought I'd try some shoulder stuff today after they held up well rolling against my two nephews. They had been to a ju-jitsu class last night and were trying out arm bars on me - so I figured I'd be OK for some KB ones. Right shoulder felt a little uncomfortable still so I will be taking it pretty easy with these exercises for a while.

Not my best effort on the Sports DL - too shaky on both sides and not really getting down far enough. Must try harder.

Towel swings were grand, took it very easy with plenty of rest between each set. Form was really good and the grip got a good going over.

Plan going forward now is to split up the shoulder work and swings like Program Minimum, using the corrections I've done as a warm up. In addition I'll be concentrating on a FMS test and the corrections for that. Starting with my arch nemesis the deep squat. It is my wish to get a picture of me doing one on here within a few months.
