  I don't update enough, haven't had a lot to say lately other than being randomly pissed off.  The gym is thinning out in the evening so that's better.  Hit a 470lb Zercher squat last night which felt fucking amazing until I realized how much pain my forearm was in.  At least this time there wasn't weird knotting in the forearm, just general tenderization.  I've been doing a lot more front squats despite how much they hurt my shoulders.  I can't find a single way to get the bar comfortable while doing them with any weight that actually feels like I'm training instead of going through the motions. Basically the bar sits right where the collarbone connects to the shoulder for me to do it where it feels right and I can use weight.  If I try to hold it lower down on my upper chest it tends to slide down the arms so it's like I'm attempting to do a Zercher from my biceps.  I'm just gonna push through the pain and keep doing them.  Might look into getting a front squat/Zercher harness.
