"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."

175 lb Press 8 sets of 2, 24 kg snatch 5x5/5, wt pushups
Nice 100 degree day out so warming up was no problem Shitty sleep last night with police helicopters dealing with an officer involved shooting a few blocks from my house so at my peak but all systems were go and the groove felt good. Not perfect but good
A bit lazy getting my hips into it as it felt so light but the last 3 sets were best with the last set literally the best set
I have to learn to drive my head back at the sticking point as that seems to be key AND lay back much more before I get the press call
It seems as I warmed up I layed back more each set and the more I did the straighter the line of the bar path and the fast the rep
Also: Keep my damn elbows in. It's harder when the shoulders are more fatigued as they were today from Monday's work but it's an important cue
Press
65 85 105 x 3
135 x 2
155 x 2
175 x 2 x 8 all pauses
didn't remember to overhold the lockout too. Remember this next week!
KB snatch
16 kg x 3/3
24 kg x 5/5 x 5
strong and easy and I can see an important press assistance work for upper back but I have fallen out of love with this movement
Doesn't matter, it still will get done well
Wt pushups
bw x 10
53 x 10 x 3
should have gone heavier but a little easier won't hurt either Just one training partner and loading it's a pain
BW 174.4
BF 14
