Soreness

[kastro]

This is so very nice to read, man: Gleaning perspective and transforming it into wisdom is the beautiful side of life's challenges (almost the point of them it seems, perhaps) that can be often missed.  

That's a very common thing with Fortitude Training (affect on body comp, food intake, etc.   It's interesting b/c I decided to just use some Q's I'd been asked to create content for my podcast (muscle Minds - recorded yesterday) and I used your core original question (on muscle soreness) as also addressed another one on whole body training where I noted this very effect, which you confirmed for me.  

Pressing progress does seem to be the hardest for most to progress on (when intermediate and beyond) and also what tends to slip the most when dieting.  I think some of this is simply b/c of the general focus most have on just moving big weights in the pressing movements early on that progresses the skill / neurological adaptation for these lifts ahead of others, leaving little room for progress  (and greater chance for backsliding) later on in one's lifting journey.   345 for a max bench is damn good, man, though, really!

Yay I can't wait for the podcasts. I was listening last night to what has to be one of my favorite episodes which is the high vs low frequency and low vs high carb. You and Scott really put some great ideas on that one.

I'm very excited I finally hit 405x6 on rack deads upper load set. This felt solid and it is the most weight I have used since my disability. Tony Stiles gave me a tip on these "to basically use a hip hinge focusing on keeping shoulders retracted".I had been getting low back stiffness and I believe it was my form.

Anyways Scott I took the pics of the hook and how I use a wrist wrap under it to keep it from slipping. I also have other ideas[emoji3]
