My Chiro saw me lifting during my afternoon Squat Clean session, working on form.  He pointed out my shoulders are not back, I’m hunched over, creating too much tension in my back and shoulders.  I know that’s the case and it’s something I need to pay closer attention to.  Same thing on Deadlifts.  I also shrug my shoulders when I run.  

That plus I’m really just getting heavy into CrossFit with some strength sessions.  He thinks it could simply be my body getting acclimated with the stress when I was pretty non-active for 8 years
