I'm done. I guess the 400 swings on saturday took a bit more out of me than I thought. Add on 350 snatches in 25 mintues and the goose is cooked. Perfect timing as the rest of the week is a taper for the long weekend to come.
My work capacity felt good but my speed was off, particularly in the later sets. Heartrate peaked at 185 on the last sets and was between 155 and 173 for most of the sets up to 40.After 40 it spiked. Wind was fine and the hands held up good, too.
I've found that for trying to move so fast for so many sets I can't use too much chalk. Plus its hot as hell and I sweat like a freakin pig.Chalk cakes up and hands tear.It's such a light weight that it doesnt matter. Encourages me to spin the hand around the bell and not overgrip.
No warmup at all,lol just dive in. Takes about 20 sets to even feel warm now.My cue for flat feet continues to work like a charm and I hit the same place each rep.This groove is what I've been waiting for.
When I get back from the cert will start Kenneths original protocol: 36 sec on 36 sec off for 20 sets. I figure I will do 16 reps per 36 sec work bout. The gymboss will definitely come in handy on this one!

My arms are just really cooked now, from the combo of the big swing workout on saturday and all these snatches today. a good cooked, but definitely the limiting factor.

"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."
