"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."

Military Press PR and 135 lb goal, belt squats, pushups, sled
Well that got done. A big goal of mine since I started over head pressing last year was to press plates, or 135 lbs. today it got done.
Being back on the WSB percentage program seems to have worked again as I hit the correct numbers on cue.
I had thought about being happy with a double with 125 as 120 was my old double pr but was secretly hoping for 130 but wasn't really thinking 135.
Especially after yesterdays PR ruck but it worked out just fine
Military press
stick x 5
bar x 5
65 x 3
85 x 2
105 x 1
125 x 2 pr
130 x 1 pr
135 x 1 PR!
95 x 5 x 2
a steady slow grind but if I'm in position I can grind for a long time on a press of almost any kind. and, of course my shoulders aren't yelling at me
Today they weren't even though my left side first rib was out all day and rejected all my efforts to get it to settle in, until I started to train :)
My brain acting up
Belt squat
36 kg x 10 x 4
Man! my legs were tight and sore going in. took me three sets to warm up. last set was much nicer and looser
Floor pushup
30 PR
25
20
75 reps
these were easy. go figure
Sled
105 lbs x 250 ft x 4 laps
done done done. rows later I'm cooked.
rest and roll lots of work coming with swing vo2 on wed
