So has anyone else besides me been looking not only at progress, but looking for things that need to be worked on? Like, I have a bit of upper cross going on... my right lat and left trap are bigger than the left lat/right trap. Also have a bit of APT, internal humeral rotation, and external humeral rotation on the right side going on... amongst other things.
Just curious if anyone else is noticing these things about themselves... or others.
Yep - Danny's sent my photos back to me with notes added, pointing out problem areas, and it's helped me learn a lot.

Yes and no. There are things I'd love to work on. My chest... But, have (most likely), a SLAP lesion in my left shoulder. I have an MRA scheduled for Thursday, and a follow up series of appts to figure out the plan.
I'm anticipating about a month of my arm in a sling and 3-6 months getting back up to speed. I'm not sure what I'll be able to do. A calf specialization routine?
Pinky exercises ...

Change of plans for me. I'm going to remain in the challenge, but I'm going the bulk/strength gain route. I'm getting more and more into strongman, and me trying to lose weight (at 185) isn't really conducive to me competing.
The light-weight class is anything 200 or under. So... I'm shooting for 199 by July. Nebraska's Strongest Man is in July, so the timing of that and the end of the challenge couldn't be better.
Now this doesn't mean I'm going to try and be a chunky 200... I'd like to keep my BF close to where it is now. 13-15%. Gain a little weight, get a bit stronger, and still make some changes in physique. That's the plan.

I seem to be stalled at my current weight/fat ratio. I've certainly lost but those pesky last few lbs won't budge.

Hey, physique change is what we're all aiming for... there's just different routes to different results. Still works.

Hang in there, Neil. It's only been a little over six weeks. Keep going, keep working on it. You'll get there.

Yeah, I agree, Jill. There's a little too much namby-pamby support going on in here. Thought I'd stumbled into the ladies' challenge by accident ...

Y'all are just a bunch of instigators.

Basically I'm slightly smaller all over except my arms, yet I weigh a little more than before. Sounds like a decent recomp considering I haven't been able to do any leg work for the past month or so.

Notes:
Most of my "gains" were in the last two weeks. All weekend was basically me gorging, so...yeah. Feeling pretty positive over all. Next month should be a good one.
