Hard to believe just how much harder 8 reps per 15 second is than 7 reps! My heartrate at the end was 160 or so and it hasn't been topping 140 of late, even for 16 min. But it had to be done as it's just been too easy and it's not helping me get better.
Hard to accept I used to do 10 reps per arm for 20 min sets on a very regular basis. But it sucked ,lol, and was definitely more about lactic acid tolerance training than power production but I need some 'sucked' too.
Well it did :)
24 kg speed swings
15:15 8 rpa
12 min
192 reps
10,176 lbs tonnage
RPE 8
but form and power felt good and bell speed and height were as well
Standing press- False grip
45 x 5
65 ,85 x 3
105 x 3 x 5 sets
115 x 3 x 2 sets
127 x 3 x 2 sets
132 x 3
142 x 3
No idea why i decided to play with false grip but it felt really really good. Seemed actually easier to get the bar launched as well! weird. Will take it for a test ride Monday with 177 and see how it locks out.
I could bench so much better with a false grip than with thumb wrapped but that was a bench and not overhead but it seemed to also take pressure off my biceps tendon as it did in the bench.
It seemed like if I 'pinched' my elbows in right before the start it really set the groove and the launch well. And without as much leanback needed
20 LB walking lunges( zercher hold)
4 laps of 20 steps
these felt GREAT! as good as a lunge has felt. Maybe extra weight was what I needed to re groove
One arm db laterals
3 x 10/10 with 15's
band rear delts
3 x 12 with red band
need to put these in the rotation as an alternated move

"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."
