so far so good

I've gotten in another session, i'd call it a workout but it's not so much work as it is a day to day test. I'm going to keep using the snatch for a while. I really like how i really open up with them, I'm not getting any pain in my abdomen and the regular pain I've been having in my lumbar area has been significantly better for the last few days. After my brief session on thursday, I felt fine during, immediately after, and for a while after that. Then I started experiencing some discomfort in my chest, if I raised my arm into flexion it got worse and as I raised it it felt like something was pulling and grabbing from the inside. So I held some pressure on a section of my chest to keep the fascia still and then if I raised my arm back into flexion there was no pain. So I did some overhead arm circles and a few other mobility drills with my arm overhead all while maintaining pressure onto my chest. Since then no more problems and I got in the following:
snatches 15/15, 15/15 8kg
diaphragmatic breathing 3 10second holds 3 times

Also Yesterday Jes and I taught a kettlebell workshop down in fayetteville. This was the first one that we have done together. It was a lot of fun working together and the workshop went really well. I did a bunch of talking since I'm still a while off from being back to normal which means Jes did a lot of demonstrating, most of the time with the 24kg. She's an excellent instructor. We had a good crew of people that did an excellent job working and learning. We had the request to come back in another 6-8 weeks depending on schedules so that should be a lot of fun.

All in all I look to be having a pretty good start back. I have a lot of tools at my disposal and access to some great minds pick. I can see being back to where I left off but better, I'll have more balance within my body and more knowledge to decrease some issues in the future. I'm going to progress slowly to do what I can to make this more likely to turn out as a stumble rather than a big fall.
