Tested BL and I can hold a full lay for around 5s, so I will be adding that in to the next cycle.
My left shoulder is unexpectedly quite sore though but I have a three day rest. Hopefully it recovers in that time.

This week was really tough on my body, I don't think I've pushed this hard in a long while. For the first time ever I couldn't complete the 4th round of my WOD so just took it as a sign that my body is crushed and maybe I need to pull back a bit.

Feeling a little run down and my posterior deltoid is feeling stiff and sore so I think I will skip tonight's WOD and have an extra recovery day.
So, the stiffness and soreness in my posterior deltoid has continued and I think I've strained it. I am off to physio on Wednesday to get it looked at. I might be sidelined for 4-6 weeks with this one, so I'll have to work around it for a while. I can pretty much put it down to not scaling correctly. Oh well... :cry:

The physio had a look at my shoulder and the synopsis is better than I expected. I should be back in action in two weeks with the upper body work. I'll see how I progress in that time.
Shoulder feels 100% but managed to lock up my lower back on the weekend, so I'm taking another week off to relax and sort out my body.
