Notes
So I wasn't sure whether I wanted to deload or not today.  I decided it was time on Pendlays.  Just didn't feel fresh, and I don't think 3 more weeks would have been a positive experience.  I'm going to take this week to stretch out and recover. Maybe go for a jerk PR later.

Hip thrust and heavy KB Windmill was an awesome superset.  I get neutral max hip extension/glute activation with the thrusts.  I feel the windmill does the opposite with the hips - they go back in flexion, and at the same opens up the thoracic shit/shoulder. Anyways, I'm gonna remember this 1-2 combo for the future.
