20 kg speed swings 14 min 10 RPA, Press speed and some weight,walking lunges, laterals



Glenn has to take some time off overhead press so I get the rack with the only flat spot in the whole gym that's not on a platform. How exciting but very disorienting. I had all kinks rolled out of the other spot and setup and now it's time to start over. Again, disorienting but it was ok, I got somewhat figured out by the end

20 kg speed swings
15:15 x 10 RPA
14 min
280 reps
12,320 lbs tonnage
RPE 7

this was not bad although again, many distractions coming in as well as in the gym. Just no flow at all but the weight was light, the reps pretty powerful, wind fine and back no issues either. All good

Press
45 x 5
65 x 3
85 x 3
105 x 3
115 x 3 x 5
125 x 3
135 x 3
145 x 3
155 x 3
165 x 3 ( above video)



finally decided on a line of site, the horizon of the ceiling!  but it was consistent. Was wearing oly shoes. next week combat boots- slightly flatter , about a .5" inch drop

Walking lunges
4 laps of 40

decent for a change

laterals
3 sets of 8/8 with 20's

decent too

BW 171.2
BF 13.9 !!

what's that about?

Great to see your continued dedication to the craft Mark. On your vitals - maybe a stress response. Sounds like you are dealing with some.

215 x 1, 225 miss x 2, 205 x 1 x 5 , side and rear delts , floor pushups ( deep, paused) 3 x 9

 Didnt sleep well last night and that didn't help. 205 and 215 were strong ( but not fast) and sure enough I didn't have enough spee...
