"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."

28 kg One arm swings, 24 kg transfers,clubbell arm cast and crawls
De load day today. Needed this even if I weren't traveling on Tuesday but man it's hard to do. I tried to keep the load and the volume down more than a bit and it worked out fine. Have a long 8 days coming up with international travel, weird time zone work and sleep situation as well as a three hard days of teaching and demos. Have to be fresh as I can for it.
Same with tomorrow's ruck. Either will do 40 lbs for just one hour or 20 lbs for two. Haven't decided yet.
today
One arm swings
16 kg x 5/5 x 3
24 kg x 5/5
28 kg x 8/8 x 10 sets
160 reps
10,080 lbs
not hard at all but it's always weird when I am trying 'not to try too hard' as well as not to get hurt. I always feel my most vulnerable then. Strange. but all went well and bell height, speed and position were solid. work load easy
Transfers
24 kg x 40 x 1
working my way up to 100 reps I think, plus normally I would do a second, back off set. I think this will help my 5 minutes tests both snatch and one arm ( if I ever do either again :) )
Clubbell arm casts
20 lbs x 10
25 lbs x 8
x 10 x 2
much easier than last week.I would have gone up. Next time
Crawls
1 x 60 ft
x 70 ft
x 80 ft
cut back the sets but went a little further
Military press practice
15 lb bar x 3 sets of 5 with hold overhead
just greasing the groove for monday
oh yea, Nick did 3 sets of 5/5 in the one arm swing with the 68 kg bell! 150 lbs! Amazing strength and power here
time to roll, stretch and hang out. tomorrow either way is a easy walk
getting ready for CROATIA
