Its the end of a very long very good day at the RKC and I am very happy with how well my knee has held up this time. I have made some very different adjustments to my stance and mechanics and it has been very successful in keeping the pain down and the knee bending as well as it has in a long time.
for instance even though I have been standing and walking on it since 7 am and its now 11pm minnesota time I havent even had to use the g5 thumper to calm down spams and the knee feels pretty decent!
It probably doesnt look much differnet to those who obseve my gait but it sure does feel different and I will take that!
I have a great group of trainees and I really enjoy this very different teaching process more each time I come out here.
I spend so much time doing one on one training that being able to work with groups and teach in front of large groups is very exciting.
I teach the snatch tomorrow,not today and that is fine.I gave my lecture on 'what is the RKC'and it was very well received. One of my favorite topics!
dats all for now, time to get some rest.
"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."

Hey Rif
My mate Paul W is at the RKC so I'll be following your blog posts
Cheers Mike
Stay loose Mark. Do you find being bare foot helps with your knee?
It seems flat soled shoes or bare foot is bet for keeping my hip happy and therefore my shoulders as well.
Give my best to everybody.
Oh, and in response to your comment on my blog, you're not too old...I hear what you and Tracy are playin' in th background!
Glad your knee is holding up man
:-)
