Maintained everything at previous weights, reps, and it's actually getting too easy! I'd planned to up weights today, but Wednesday I pulled a shoulder muscle and I'm still all spangy. Ow.

\o/ I hope your shoulder recovers soon.

Thanks! It's annoyingly spangy still, but I have hopes it'll be better by Monday.

FWIW, I've found that rubbing in comfrey oil can sometimes help speed up recovery from muscle strains.
