Recovery night tonight and given day two of this program is the hardest I am feeling good. Tomorrow I have squats followed by Overhead press and finish off with bent rows. It feels good to be back onto a program with a competition goal in March.
Work shuts down for 2 weeks over the Christmas season and its the first time in a long while I have had time off. I am going to up the number of sessions during time as the absence of work will give me plenty of time to eat well, rest and recovery.
I spotted a good read at Bret Contreras site yesterday which provided a novel cue for keeping the knees out in the squat. There has been the usual shit storm on the net recently primarily centered on the knees out cue and particularly Kelly Starrett's coaching in this regard. Personally my crappy hip mobility means getting anything out let alone knees is hard however after trying the method in this article I was pleasantly surprised.
