"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."

Back to work: KB Press, KB front squat, floor pushups, crawls, side laterals
Took off from rucking yesterday. I had fantasies about 60 lb ruck for 6 miles but I was still in the glow sunday morning when it was wet cold and nasty out and I just decided to stay comfy and enjoy my victory and celebration a bit longer
Today was the start of new things though, finally done with this three year quest. Now onto new( old things) and the KB press is one of them
Started playing with the Cashin clean, Ed Cashin technique of catching the clean with a very vertical forearm , as if in a bottom's up clean position. First try at it for real but it felt very good. Video looks like I have to lower my fist a bit to get it under the chin but it's a great start and the press felt STRONG!
Shoulder too
better angle of it here on this work set with the 24 kg

20 kg x 3/3
24 kg x 2/2

KB front squat
Wow, the last time I did these my knee didn't bend near as much as it does now yet the technique I used today was from them and it didn't fit. Have to toe out a little more and open the stance up too. I was feeling a little hammy tightness from the handstand kickups ( of all things after that!) but I was being cautious and it shows in the video.
these will alternate with goblet squats too in the future
