Sorry for spacing on this yesterday. Holler!

A bunch of push-ups again. And then today, I did FOUR deadhang pull-ups in a row, for the first time ever. \o/

Mostly the same- pushups, saws, squats, shoulder presses and silat squats.

Added in some planks, and also a bit of cross sit ups.

Went to the gym twice, did the back program and some vertical abs crunches. I did not feel very strong the last week, so I adapted the sets and repetitions some.

Shoulder still not happy. I blame work.

On Monday, I finished Phase 6 of NRoL4W. I then took several days off to recover. Today, I flipped and rodated a queen-sized mattress all by my lonesome. Hooray for proper deadlift technique!

It was much less of a chore than it was last year.

Lifting heavy things is a very useful ability to cultivate.
