"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."

36 kg One Arm Swings,hack squats, sandbag pushups, side delts
After the last two swing workouts using the pure hinge I definitely felt lower back tightness. NOT what I want to feel. That style definitely works my lower abs more too which usually lights up my lumbars as well.
So back to the squat/hinge style and it worked great today. As before my legs and glutes feel the loading not the back.
The weight felt like nothing and the power output and wind was better than good.
