175/185 lb speed press, 24 kg speed swing, wt pushups

 Switched back to vibrams and it worked great. Just as I thought/hoped: that the load the bow technique would do what i was wearing the heels to do- set the arch. But without the instability of the heel at the sticking point.
Again, the first key is elbows in (and stay in, without that nothing else works). I also incorporated "get the head out of the way" as I pressed but we figured out at the end that just setting the head into position after I load the bow works better. I lost balance a few times moving my head too quickly as I press 
Pre setting it should work better. But I didn't play with it til the very end but I think it's right.Another great Glenn call

190 x 1 x 12, 210/225 static holds, 24 kg goblet squats, floor pushups 30, 20

 This went VERY well almost all reps identical. Realized I get better drive AND minimize shoulder stress if I unrack it with more weight on ...
