@ioannes I've had standing desk for years now, both at home and office, ergo keyboard, monitor on arm at right height. At work ad prof ergo consult as well. I am in processess of correcting my shoulder posture, but I was trying ask do other folks who through these strength programs also get...

@samia786 I went pretty slow with S&S so I think swing & TGU is ok. C&P is only recently started (2 months) so its possible its not correct, and likely attacking small muscles I've possibly never worked out before. With the current situation I was hesitant to get an in person coach, but I was...

Summary Turns out I was actually pressing double 18kg instead 16kg. I went back to reset my adjustable kettlebell for S&S session at 30kg and realized I had mistakly put 18kg instead of 16kg. This explains why I was so sore/locked, I jumped up on weights too quickly. I went down to double 14kg...

@suro382 Interesting, I am due for vision check so I'll make to ask for it. Thanks.

@rextor432 I appreciate the detailed reply. This sub is awesome! I know my posture is bad, I fixed by wrist issues by using negative tent keyboard that helps alot. I have a standing desk at home with monitor on arm to set the high correctly. I try to stand few mins a day but not consistantly...

@truthseekerisabeau Oh shit, ok, I've heard on slip disk in back but neck sounds very severe. Glad it worked for you. I've ordered a 5lb club just to add as warm up, thanks for suggestion.

@truthseekerisabeau I've seen many folks here expand with mace and clubs, plus its recommended by Mark Wildman as well. I wanted to actually finish my current programs before starting those but maybe its worth adding to warm up to existing workout. Do you think that'll be as useful?

@riane87 Ah good idea, will try it out suit case holds.

@riane87 Pulling shoulders down is exactly what my chiro kept emphasizing, I have to keep concious about that as well. Pull down and a little back. Good to hear it works long term. I remember one of the counters to setting all day was to hang for 30s a few times a day, I had forgotten about it...

@anon103 Thanks, will try them out.

@tythomasjr I used to do yoga as part of P90x3 years ago, will try this out again. Any recommendation? 1 hour would be too long but 30mins I can keep up. Yeah I've been using lacrosse ball like message balls, will try out the softer ones. Thanks!

@jekyll I should've mentioned, I will foam roll on upper back. Neck its hard to do so I'lll use a message ball.

I am currently doing S&S at 30kg 2x a week and DFW 16kg 2x week. DFW I started with single bell since I couldn't do both at same time, but after about 6 weeks I can do doubles. My goal is GPP, with 3 young kids, I'll be happy to get to Simple and maintain it for life, and get to either 20kg or...
