Hope to get to core work today.  Ran out of time yesterday

Doc said I'm cleared to start lifting.  Didn't ask specifics but he said just don't start with 400#.  I assume that means we can proceed as desired off feel now.  Like i said in text.  Maybe start adding more UB strengthening exercises other than just the rehab stuff.  I think starting with Single arm stuff is wise.  I know L tricep is a little week so maybe some isolation stuff there. 
Maybe add in Back Squats instead of sleds or maybe leave sleds and take out Chain Squats.  Building on the RDL's and stuff.

Whatever you think.

So the first 6 sets was all done w/ 2 min rest b/w every 2 min then I realized that was too easy and wrong. 

Last 2 sets of 3 rounds were done properly.
Kept pace and averaged about 93 Double Unders/round.  Calves are feeling it today :) Enjoyed doing something different than bike though.
Been doing Spina Mobility sequence pretty much every day.  Especially with arms I think it's helping shoulders.

Core work done.  Side plank done on hand, can feel the shoulder working in this position to stabilize.  Reverse plank is definitely the hardest of the 3.
