"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."

52 and 68 kg One Arm Swings,double 24 kg front squats,weighted pushups, Pbar Handstands, rear delts
Monster bells today! And it was not without fear. I am always cognizant and respectful of, what trying to move around heavy weights can do to me. Even as squared up as I am lately.
Plus we had some weirdo off the streets walk into the garage right before I was up for my first set and it really though me off, literally off balance on my first set. An objective lesson how hard it is to maintain balance with a one arm swing when the bell almost weighs as much as you.
But it got done. Left hand grip was, as usual harder than right, and kept me from accelerating more at the top BUT it was better than before so that's good progress

Moved my stance in close than last week and it was excellent. Can't believe how good these feel now. Just LOVE being able to do them. Can really feel my abs working hard in the bottom too and the back holds up now. Thank goodness for that! Finally.
