Notes: 3:45 between heavy presses, 2:00 between giant sets.  I'm hemorrhaging strength on the press, but before I go salt the earth on the program I have to keep in mind that, on top of losing 10lbs of bodyweight, I also haven't been afforded the luxury of 2 a day training since early March, and it was during those 2 a days I saw my strength explode on the press.  My instinct is that the programming is still sound, but the effectiveness is reduced due to circumstances.  I AM getting the itch to do some behind the neck pressing again, but my right shoulder is just not having a good time, most likely a result of the reintroduction of combat sports.  I told the weights way down on the lateral raises and really focused on the muscles in hopes of that having an effect.

Workout finished and the Mrs hit me with "You look really veiny", so I suppose the diet has been worth it.
