"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."

40kg One Arm Swings, 15 lb CB swipes, 16-24 pyr snatch,bar hack squats, weighted pushups, rear laterals
Today went well, despite the crick in my neck, then my t spine, then my neck again on the other not really "clearing".Nothing scary just literally, a "pain in the neck". Oh and som QL tightness as well. Haven't felt that in ages
Brought back memories of the bad old days of constantly being tweaked, needing/wanting to work on it to clear it and not having it come all the way out.
Just irritating. Too much flexion and not enough body maintenance gets me everything. I actually was starting to think I was immune but this is a very good lesson that I am not. Indeed will never be. A very very gentle lesson too, thank you very much
Everything felt slightly foreign , even too stiff until enough sets had passed to really warm me up and re set my groove.
One arm Swings
16 kg x 5/5 x 2
20 kg x 5/5
24 kg x 5/5
28 kg x 5/5
32 kg x 5/5
40 kg x 5/5 x 10 sets
good height, good float and virtually no cardio stress. Think I'll have to go up to 7's or 8's. I think I can still keep high power up on that many with not much more CV stress
Swipes
thought this might be a good addition haven't done these in years and they felt perfectly natural right out of the box.
Five sets of 10 with 2 15's no problem
Snatches
Didn't think I'd do these but I wanted to see
16 kg x 5/5
20 kg x 5/5
24 kg x 5/5 x 3
felt good. overhead no problem
Weighted pushups parallel bars
BW x 10
32 lbs x 10 x 3 sets
easy
Rear laterals
3 sets of 12 with 15's
BW 163.4
