Log press deserves its own day

I came to the conclusion that after working my triceps with heavy cg bench Thursday I am not recovered enough for good log pressing on Saturday, event day. Moving them to my shoulder day Monday just makes sense. It also frees up more time to train the other events on the weekend I need to be outside for and need daylight.

Of course since I did press Saturday I didn't go crazy today
