I only did Saturday and Sunday this week.  
I have something going on with the right side neck, trap, and top of shoulder or top of collarbone area.  
Maybe the shoulder part is where the trap joins the bone.  
Not a big deal, but i decided to rest everything for a few days.  
Just feels like extra soreness, not anything like a pull or strain.

I really liked not having extra stuff on my busiest day, Tuesday, and plan to keep that day clear of accessories for at least a while.  
Gonna play around with scheduling of dips and pullups to strike a balance as the main lifts continue to progress/get heavier.  
Sunday, Wednesday, Friday would be good, because those are my pullup days.  
That would also leave my arms rested for Tuesdays when i have a heavy top bench single.

Saturday dips should work too, since i only have squat and bench that day.

Well, i think i have to lay off dips until after my meet.  
It’s been a good run, and i did what i set out to do in regards to adding upper body muscle.  
I think i’ve been going hard over three months now with these.  
Almost everyday until the last couple of weeks.

I did them today, and the same spot has the soreness again.  
It’s not the shoulder, but seems like the very top of the pec at the collarbone.  
It seems like a lot of things come together there, neck and trap, are two i can identify.  
I feel it when i move my right arm across the front of my body, and that area schrunches up.

I’m calling it overuse, and am glad it’s not a shoulder thing.  
Time to train the muscle i have now with the bench, which is the main goal anyway.  
I think this thing interferes with my max power output at this point, and is counterproductive.

I’ll keep my pullups in the mix, but won’t be logging them here.

Started back in with dips and pulls after 3 months off lifting.  
Pullups suffered most, i think.  
Was doing 7s, and decided 3s was a good place to start back in.

I’ll post weekly, but first i’ll just list everything since i started back in.  
I may shoot for higher BW reps with dips than last run before moving to weighted.  
I was pushing too hard at the end with added weight.

Kind of want to push on and do ten sets tomorrow, Sunday (10 is the turnover to +1 reps), but i’m taking a complete rest day instead.  
Looks like i’ll stick to doing these on lifting days Mon, Wed, Fri, and also Saturday.

Catching up after a week of disruption due to some daily travel that had to be done for a week plus.  
Back to sets of 6 for pullups.  
Working on shortening rest times for those before adding sets.  
Was doing 7s pre surgery, so i feel pretty good about the state of things going forward.

Should be able to add a set per session for dips for a while yet.  
Up to ten sets, then add a rep, drop sets and repeat the pattern.  
I’ll continue bodyweight dips longer this time before adding weight.  
Not going to say i’ll get to 20 rep sets, but that would be nice.
