44kg One Arm Swings 10x10,Barbell hacks, Sandbag pushups,side delts



This went very very well. It also showed me how important rest is in this process. My three day forced taper, even though it involved alot of travel, little sleep and weird food really let my body recover a bit and today's workout was positively easy.
Of course it was only the 44 kg and not the 48 but still, it felt like a toy and I had the best height and acceleration with it ever. Plus, cardio was STRONG
We finished the 10 sets in 13 minutes and we could have pushed it under 10 without breaking a sweat.

Of course it could have just been a good day but I know when March test comes I'm taking the Wed and Thursday workouts out and just resting.

This was a great day for you/us. The intensity aka time to complete sets did not even feel intense much like you said. Felt like our Conditioing and Power were spot on.

PS: the military press looked easy!!!

it sure was. I was pretty shocked how easy it was. Nice that that can happen once in awhile :)

190 x 1 x 12, 210/225 static holds, 24 kg goblet squats, floor pushups 30, 20

 This went VERY well almost all reps identical. Realized I get better drive AND minimize shoulder stress if I unrack it with more weight on ...
