15 x 20kg OHS

Getting sick of having to row instead of run.
OHS were interesting. I taped myself to finally see what I'm doing and also tried some things I'd been working on with a PVC pipe. Really struggle to keep my shoulders active so I'm going to need to nurse my right shoulder as usual. Adding to that, when I keep a real tight arch there's far less load on my shoulders because my chest stays much more upright.
I'll be checking the tape to see if what I feel as a tight arch means my chest doesn't dip forward at all, so my arms don't have to travel behind my head at all, unloading my shoulders.
I see that as one of the "secrets" to Nicole Carrol's OHS. Her back is in a tight curve, so shoulder flexibility or lack thereof doesn't come into it for her. From the chest up her position doesn't change, so she might as well be standing there with the weight overhead as far as her ability to hold the weigh goes.
Trying to get to that stage myself.
Watched some of the tape as it streams to disk and I didn't succeed. I came close a few times, but I'm squatting way high and my weight is way forwards. More to work on.
