One Arm Beast Swings

Well this was a surprise! A very nice one at that. Pretty stressful day yesterday and I went into the workout not expecting much. But certainly open to the possibilities of swinging the Beast,either this week or next. I would see how I felt, as always.

And the warmups didn't feel that good,lol. So I planned on a 5-10 rep ladder with the 36 kg , the next logical progression after last weeks 32 kg work. But each set got better and after I did this set of 8/8 with the 36 I decided to give the Beast a go.



Very very happy with the workout over all, that's for sure. Haven't felt this strong in eons. especially at 157 lbs :) The most surprising part was how solid my grip was. I remember the first time I swung the 36 kg one arm a few months ago and it was my left hand grip that was the weakest link! No problem at all today on the Beast or any of the other bells. Love having my grip strength back!

wow, not much volume but I was cooked. Joe and Nick were snatching the 36 and 40 kg bells and everybody was working hard, for low heavy reps. Nice! Nick even snatched the Beast with his right hand and had a awesome bailout on his left!
