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

35 lb ruck ( macV2 boots) 5.21 miles

 Decided to switch back to the GoRuck MacV2 boots and have to say they do indeed feel better. the 13 mm heel to toe drop is definitely more ...
