"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."

36 kg Two Hand Swing ladders 8,9,10
Keeping with the theme of heavier, faster and more powerful I decided to do ladders on my swings, even though sets of 10 would have been no problem. I am really loving ladders of everything these days as " climbing to the to and then jumping down" is such a fatigue sparing mechanism that it lets me go heavier and keep the bell speed up even as I try to accumulate some decent volume.
Got the full stretchout in this am in two parts 5:30 am -6 and then 9:30- 10. Lots of shoulder mobility as well as overhead stick stretches.
Two hand swings
16 kg x 10
20 kg x 10
24 kg x 8
28 kg x 8
32 kg x 8
36 kg x 8,9,10 x 4 rounds
162 reps
12,960 lbs
I love how these numbers add up so fast. Energy was good. Things didn't start to even get a little tough until the last set of ladders. Just overall fatigue but speed stayed high.
Snatch holds
16 kg x 30 sec
20 kg x 35 sec
24 kg x 35 sec
20 kg x 45 sec
surprisingly tight today. oh yea, my shoulder did sublux a bit in the AM when I was working on hanging from the bar. I just can't let myself fully hang out or shoulder clunks weird. with a slightly bent arm and scaps retracted no problem but I guess I just don't have enough ligaments left in there :))
Farmers Walks
2 16 kg bells x 200 ft x 4 rounds
800 feet
Was tired and don't know if I trust this movement yet. tried it before and my back didn't like it but that was years ago. Felt ok but better less than more
Floor pushups
3 sets of 7
ok but shoulder fatigued by now. done.
