After Monday's big day I thought I'd start with swings today instead. Turned out to be a good idea
Adapting to this, finally. Wasn't that big deal and breathing was decent as well as power output
24 kg speed swings
15:15 x 10 RPA
16 min
320 reps
16,960 lbs tonnage
RPE 6
very very pleased with this. The bell didn't even feel heavy after Monday
Military press practice
bar x 5
65 x 3
85 x 3
105 x 3
127 x 3 x 4 sets
changed things today, experiment time
1) flat shoes ( vibrams) the idea being I consistently lose the bar forwards at the sticking point and the heel puts me more forward and on my quads not my glutes.
2) wider grip (mid grip) since my elbows hyperextend the ring(close ) grip is ok at the start but compromises ROM at the sticking point and lockout
This seemed to help right away with overhead
3)looking forward not up Not sure why just instinct.
4) chest up not just hips forward with lean back. Have to have the chest up to hold the load but the more my hips go forward and I lean back the more I have to work to 1)keep the bar directly over mid foot and 2) the harder it is to push it back over my head without losing balance
5)drive the bar up then back instead of just up
this seemed to work ok too
but, then again, it is lightweight
then
105 x 3 x 2
115 x 3 x 2
120 x 3 x 2
about 13 total sets. very informative
has promise. I really need to figure out this lockout for 200 lbs press
Kickstand squats
2 sets of 20
Walking lunges
2 laps of 40
rear delts
3 sets of 15 with 15
BW 170.2
BF12.2
W 56.5
was 169.4 right before workout
ok no ruck tomorrow - dentist appointment for my birthday!

"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."
