Strict press felt a lot better with that tip to push my shoulders forward and head straight back.  I had a pretty steady matched ascent with both arms tonight too.  Just felt stronger.  However...handstands seemed rough after pressing.  And the 30 sec rest was short.  I have some numbness in my left hand that started somewhere during the 4th set but I'm sure it will be gone by morning.  The negative levers were HARD.  I tried to stay as straight as I could while keeping a tucked low back.  I felt it mostly in my upper abs.  But my arms were even tired by the end of it, from hanging on.  Strict pull ups seem hard again.  I did two together the first two sets but then was lucky to get one at a time and even failed some (a rep each set) just from needing more recovery.  False grip ring rows were fine, learning to position my hands better/quicker.  Oh yeah, for some reason my ankles have been really sore the last few days.  It's still kinda uncomfortable to jump rope...maybe better tomorrow.  Thanks!
