Well this didn't go as planned. I followed brett's 24 kg swing protocol AKA 044 from pavel's strongendurance course and got some shitty numbers , despite feeling like the bell was flying seriously fast!
don't know what's up but I can't swing it any harder or faster and still the numbers are shite
One arm swings
Left arm 5 reps per set ( 1.5- 2 min rest between arms(
x 5 sets
Right arm 5 reps per set, same est
x 5 sets
x three rounds
150 reps
7950
average velocity per rep was from .83 - .93 for left arm and max velocity was 1.92 m/s
for right arm is was average velocity was .94 - 1.07 and max velocity was 1.75 ms
for left arm average power was 372 watts ( !) and peak was 728! that sucks. but I don't have how it could move that fast and have so little watts compared to brett's almost 2000 watts
any way it was tough! especially over time. I could really concentrate on keeping max acceleration on every rep of every set and the damn thing took 53 minutes! too long. I didn't enjoy this at all. I basically swing as hard as I can, ( and feels safe- i could feel myself on the edge of 'trying too hard')
experiment over. back to my training
Press
45 x 5
65 x 5
85 x 3
115 x 5
120 x 5 x 5
this was hard.! the hour of max effort swings really took it out of me . plus another super hot day. no excuses but it was what it was
hot
Really tried to lay back first as I pressed but I have to be careful, it's a VERY fine line as to how much is too much! I can lose balance backwards too. Not good
walking lunges
3 laps of 40
datsit
BW 171.6
BF 12.7
"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."
