"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."

Snatch Vo2 35 sets of 7, walking lunges, 90 floor pushups,rear delts
Very very very happy with this today. Not only the conditioning but the overhead position. Oh, and also that my elbow is almost back to normal. 90% or so. I am very grateful. Plus neither shoulder got wonky in response to my elbow feeling better which means I am actually squaring up for real. This could be very good indeed. After all these years, who'd a thunk it?
The hangs from bar are going very well too and this is a big part of it. Waiting out the stretch reflex under isometric tension is starting to work for my shoulders just as it did for my knee. I might be on to something.
Snatch Vo2
16 kg
15:15
35 sets of 7
245 reps

best my right arm over head has been in a year or more!!Plus the work felt light.
Walking lunges
4 laps of 40 steps unbroken
stronger than last week
Floor pushups
6 sets of 15 reps
90 total reps PR!
this was very strong, choose to stay on the floor and keep the wrist flexors stretching, Elbow was fine.
Hangs
4 sets of 20 seconds. best so far
Band rear delts
4 sets of 5 reps
need these.
One possible way to integrate all of this is two alternating cycles
A
Wednesday
Snatch Vo2
Saturday
Heavy one arm swings
B
Wednesday
Swing Vo2
Saturday
24 kg Snatch for volume
Four- five weeks cycles of each. It just might work
ok fast and light ruck tomorrow and get to test drive the Salomons.
