32 kg one arm swings, 44 kg power swings



cut back on the meds last night and slept poorly. it's so weird. once I get up and move around the calf/ leg feels ok but I can't find a position where it's good for more than a few hours. Got to fix that. No sleep sucks.

But strength was ok and was good as soon as I got going:

One arm swings
16kg x 5/5 x2
20 kg x 5/5
24 kg x 5/5
32 kg x 5/5 x 8sets
          x 10/10 
100 reps
7000 lbs

no problem felt square and solid and my left leg tracked really well

44 kg Power swings
44 kg x 5 x 5 sets
25 reps
2425 lbs

these were surprisingly strong as well although the groove was hard to find for the first few sets. definitely different with this knee and the closer stance that I am taking in everything now

Alternate
stationary cycling ( 50-100 reps)

Barbell curls
45 x 10
55 x 5,6,7,8

Got the full revolution on first attempt, a very good improvement.

Curls felt strong too. wanted some higher reps

Six Point rocking 20-30 reps
Four point rocking 20-30 reps

both with neck nods.REALLY like these and crawling again. Really.

 My attempts to create more starting speed failed. Rushed things, did not get or keep my legs stiff. figured it out though 175 x 1 195 x Mis...
