Notes: Back was almost completely pain free today, though a full tucked pelvis felt tender.  Very thankful to be able to train today without having to think about my back and I think I have found the missing link in my training with the 90/90 hip tilt.  Once I was able to get my pelvis organized, all movements felt a lot better.  Upper body felt much better in my lockouts, and I have felt this smooth in the jerk in quite some time.  Strict muscle ups felt good today and I was able to turn the rings out at the top, something I usually have a hard time doing on the high rings.  For strict T2B today, I worked on hip tilts, V-Holds, and Reverse Situps.  I chose these movements to work on pelvic positioning and control.  Bar rows were challenging today.  It think the ROM is larger than I am use to because my body is finally in the right position and I am not reaching my chest and hips up.  Need to work on this.  Hit a ring pullover today for the first time in my life.  This has been a 4 year goal of mine.  I want to fine tune this technique for sure so I can string them together no problem.
