"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."

Press practice 175 lbs x 10 x 2, 24 kg Lions roar snatch 5 x 5/5, wt pushups
This started out pretty sucky despite high expectations I had "figured it out". At least the hip drive part of it but I was leaking power through soft knees and I didn't figure it out ( well Glenn and Nick figured it out) til the last 3 sets ( hence 10 instead of 8 ) but it was worth it
The bow is right. But I have to keep my knees locked or I leak the power there and the shock wave never makes it up to the bar
I didn't think they were bending that much, even after looking at vids but once I felt it locked I realized I was bending way more
My 220 lb press I made they were locked. the 225 lb miss they were not. In fact in re looking at the misses and makes at 215 and above all the makes had more locked knees and the misses were all soft, starting with a half ass pushpress
Also I have to unrack the bar with hip extension and not my knees. I think if I initiate with the knees that's where the leakage starts.
Definitely not a great unrack today
Felt strong and big though ( more on that ,lol)
Press
65 85 105 x 3
135 x 2
155 x 2 ( bar too forward on unracking too)
165 x 1 eh
175 x 2 x 10 sets
pauses were solid but didn't start holding lockouts til end,
all over the place, really
