Still cutting and things are looking noice.

I took the last couple days off due to a bum shoulder. Though, I spent A LOT of time doing various shoulder rehab and isolation exercises to get things worked out. I've also been taking advantage of the sauna every day this week for 30 minutes. It all appears to be helping and I suspect the shoulder will be back in tip top shape within a couple weeks.

But, I will definitely NOT be goofing around with ring dips again and WILL be prioritizing rear delt isolation from here on out (something I've been vocal about not feeling the need to do a lot if you do rows and pullups – I was wrong and I'll speak about this later, after I've accumulated more time doing rear delt isolations).

Today's leg session felt pretty good. I really enjoy these isolations for the quads and hamstrings. 2 exercises I've ignored for a long time. Great stimulus to fatigue ratio....as expected for isolation exercises.
