"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."

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.
