Great new article by Max Shank on the power of the basic swing. This cuts right to the chase
"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."

Rif,
I would have to agree with Max. My training over the past 6 months has proven it to myself. I think I have gained more during this time doing heavy swing intervals than during the previous 2 years working high volume, timed set snatches.
Swings are a tough concept to sell to the average Joe. They just aren;t sexy enough, yet they are clearly highly effective

the swing's the thing, that's for sure. but it's hard and it's not sexy and it's just pure hard work.
and the bell won't swing itself.
since watching your wife i have been starting to swing for real.
she gave me a reason and thats go hard or go home
