Bit frustrated to finish below target on heavy squats, I'll put that down to calorie restriction I think.
Otherwise it was an amazing workout, particularly the boring but big squats. Haven't put that much volume into squats ever I don't think so I should be pretty sore tomorrow.
DMAA I purchased gets five stars, seemed to give me more and more energy as my workout progressed, absolutely outstanding :)

Welp, things had been going a little too well for me but this morning my golden injury run was broken.
Little back story, for the past month or so I'd had some very light dull pain deep in my right shoulder. I'd suspected some kind of rotator cuff issue but didn't really worry too much about it because the pain was minor and only showed up on push days intermittently. I always made sure to warm up my rotator cuff anyway but this slight pain made me even more conscious of it.
Then this morning on my second set of heavy military press the slight pain graduated into a raging inferno. Thankfully the pain has subsided and I was able to complete some lightweight pressing and pec fly and dumbbell pull overs so the morning session was not completely wasted.
Plan for recovery is ice pack, ibuprofen, stretching and absolutely zero exercises involving the shoulder/pressing girdle (isolation pec and tricep exercises are ok) until the inflammation has dissipated.
If I'm still having issues in a week or so I'll try getting a physio appointment, could be a ball ache at this time of year
Wouldn't surprise me if this rotator cuff soreness is related to my recent muscle up attempts
Interested in anyone's thoughts or advice.

That was a brutal workout, I hope I didn't over do it and not able to walk tomorrow.
Heavy squats felt good, it was the BBB squats that killed me.
Switching to an upper lower split as it will allow me to hit my squats and shoulder press more frequently. Obviously some back work will be incorporated into the upper days but because increasing back and bicep strength isn't a focus for me at the moment it seemed wasteful to have a dedicated pull day.
