Swing squats

Felt ready to go after a good nights sleep. I always sleep well after I dont sleep at all the night before. Go figure.
Only thing good about really hot summer days is that it takes so little to get warmed up!

swing/flip/squats
36x10
44x10
53x10x5 sets very strong.

72x5
72x6
72x7
72x8
72x9
72x10 YES! No problems wahtsoever. Strength is all from the mind. I've decided I want to be strong again and my entire mindset towards the weight changed. Instead of thinking the 72 is heavy and scary I'm thinking I have to bring the Bulldog back to Stones to swing and the 72 wont be the max anymore.Hell maybe I'll bring that ugly 95 pounder Pig I have as well. Been eating more protein too and that is helping me feel stronger and recover faster.

BU press
36x5+5
44x3+3 strong!
53x2+2 Yes! PR on the right side
53x2+2 excellent
53x1.5 r/2 left getting tired

44x5+5 what a differnce a little weight makes in this one.
44x5+5
36x10+10 long cycle. like a toy.

kb lunges ( high shoulder rack. saw this in Mike Mahlers Aggressive KB training and its great. now I dont have to worry about the shoudlers giving out first.)
36x8+8
53x8+8
x10+10
x10+10 feeling strong.

datsit!

rif- just found out about your blog. i'm newly getting into KBs and i love them. i hope to learn some things from your blog.

190 x 1 x 12, 210/225 static holds, 24 kg goblet squats, floor pushups 30, 20

 This went VERY well almost all reps identical. Realized I get better drive AND minimize shoulder stress if I unrack it with more weight on ...
