Cleans

was supposed to do presses today but needed some more cardio. decided on cleans

cleans
36x10+10
53x8+8
72x5+5
88x3+3x4 sets. this was a challenge. I have never used this before in a workout. just the one triple I did down in santa monica. did not feel bad at all but it is a brute! I love cleans, they are the intermediate swing;less cardio than the pure swing but more brute strength and body hardening than the snatch.
72x8+9 so much lighter on the way down
53x12+12 love it.


all sets supersetted with bosu ball step up into one foot balance. these are getting easier each time. used deavid wecks extended wink technique and it was GREAT! this guy is SO CLEVER when it comes to training ideas.

kb front squat
36x5+5
53x5+5
72x4+4 hardest part is keeping it racked, not the squat
72x4+4
53x8+8

farmers walk
one 53#
left hand 2p laps switch to right hand one lap: four times.

these are good for me.

handstands
6 handstands held for 5-7 sec. didnt hit a one on the first attempt most took three, some four. very strange because one I was balanced they were the strongest HS I've done recently.

oh well. tomorrow- swings with Mike in the AM.Cant wait.
