Entry #1085

Haven't been keeping up with updates. My last non-deload:

SSB box squats:
405 x 5, 5, 5

Unilateral dumbbell press:
142.5 x 4/2
> Felt something snap in left arm pit on that second rep. And with that, I'm officially retiring this exercise, at least as a main movement. Going this heavy with this much mechanical instability isn't a good idea. If I had the means of using two dumbbells at a time then I could keep going.

Did some light dumbbell rows (100s x 12 - felt too burned out for anything more) and called it a day.

No pain persisted, but a couple days later I was doing deloaded floor press and my armpit pained up, so I reracked. It only hurts under pressure. Handled overhead pressing fine the next session.

Quads are still sore but for the first time in four weeks they're actually notably better and I'll probably be able to full squat next week.
