"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."

44 kg One Arm Swings, 325 lb Deadlift, 73 lb Wt pushups, side delts
Very very solid workout. Not sure if it's the new brand of creatine I'm taking or that I'm actually just getting back into shape but my conditioning has seemed to jump to a new level this week. Wednesday's workout was so easy and today was too.
Bell felt light,speed felt great and wind was virtually easy. Recovered from each set in 30 seconds or less- we still took 3 minutes- but I finally felt good here.
One arm swings
16 kg x 5/5 x 2
20 kg x 5/5
24 kg x 5/5
28 kg x 4/4
32 kg x 4/4
36 kg x 4/4
44 kg x 8/8 x 10 sets
160 reps
15, 520 lbs tonnage
RPE 6.5
deadlift
This is probably the last time I go over 300 until the SFL. We'll see how I feel tomorrow but the DL's seems to have been 'talking' to my lower back just a little and it's making me nervous. I wanted to take this weight today in case I need to do some correction work. There's plenty of time. I'm not THAT worried but I don't want to even feel my lower back going into this cert.
Next week I'll do hacks and then the week after go up to 275 and then that's it til the course. 2 more weeks.
This didn't feel hard at all so 15 lbs more should be no issue. Especially if I don't do 15,000 lbs of swings first. But I do have to do 3 days of training after I test and that's key
Deads
135 x3
225 x 2
275 x 1
297 x 1
325 x 1
Wt pushups
BW x 10
53 x 8 paused
63 x 8 paused
73 x 6 paused
these felt very strong Will probably bench next week instead of these
Side delts
3 sets of 12 with 20's
very strong. best ever
BW 169.4
BF 11.2
W 57.1
