"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."

Pushing Re Set
I haven't swung a kettlebell since last tuesday and I feel it.It was a great weekend at the bodyweight cert except for my training :)) I walked more than ever( of late) and things worked well but I lost about 5 pounds the last week and it wasn't fat.
Time to get back on track. A wee bit of everything today.
5:30 am
stretchout and primal move. I still have to get back to my full hour stretchout, somehow, AND practice my PM move to prepare my video for my certification.At least now I will have some time. lot of work to do, though
1 pm
one arm swings
16 kg x 5/5/ x3
20 kg x5/5 x 2
24 kg x 5/5 x 2
28 kg x 5/5/ x 4
these were tough at first. when I go this long without lifting or swinging my body forgets it so fast. I seem to lose 'connection' to my body way too easily. at least for strength. Movement stays but strength goes fast.
Snatch
16 kg x 5/5
20 kg x 5/5x3
24 kg x 5/5 x 3
these felt decent. The 24 actually didn't feel heavy after all that warmup.
KB press
20 kg x 5/5 x 4 sets
found a good groove here, too. will press the 24 on thursday.
two hand cb arm cast
15 x 10/10
25 x 10/10
35 x 5/5
DONE! These felt better than expected, even the 35er.Time to eat :))

It's amazing how fast strength goes in regards to kettlebells when not used-even for just a short time!
Good luck with the certification Mark!
