Re: Compression Socks
Greg,
Are you planning on re-stocking the compression shorts? I have a few pairs now and would love to get some more.
They have held up amazingly well through lifting, rugby, hockey etc.

Re: Foam Roll Alternative for Travel

Re: lingering shoulder issue
I've had success running through the Shoulder Rehab protocol by Diesel Crew.
Doesn't take long to do each day and it helps getting the shoulders moving properly.

Re: Best bumper/bar combo deal?
If you contact Rogue you can swap the bumpers in the package. I got the HG bumpers with my Ohio Bar, R3, bench package since I like the lower bounce of the HGs.

Congrats!
I find it odd that you'd spring for the competition plates but not a nicer bar than the econ.
Doubt you'd see any issues but it doesn't have a warranty.

The chan bar has a center knurl and more space before knurl on the ends to save shin scrape.
