40 kg One arm swings 10 x 10/10, paused pistol practice, one arm laterals/rear delts



This was, as always tough. And, as recently tough in  a  good way, ie, trying to maximize power out put on each an every rep as well as all the sets. I can  feel when my power goes down but I still try to keep it high and there's the training; keep pushing back that level over time

4-5 min rest between sets so we had plenty of time but it's starting to get hot now and that adaptation has not kicked in yet either ;)

One arm swings

 Thought about going back to 5x5 for a hot second then my left shoulder  reminded me why I stopped doing them before. It doesn't seem to...
