I was tired and sore from Monday so it took extra long to warmup and get dynamic. On days like this I SHOULD go lighter for the first 4-5 sets. it make no sense to grind on wednesay
Out of the 13 sets only 4-5 were decent. the technique was right but everything was tight. didn't really feel comfortable under the bar. even the bar wasn't sitting that well on my chest
BUT all in all strong Just not crisp
This went great except for my second attempt miss ( lost the X on the drive) but CAME BACK AND MADE IT ON A THIRD ATTEMPT!
So happy and decent lockouts too
More cues
FIND THE X
STIFFEN LEGS AND MAKE SURE
FAST START
REFIND THE X
BW 174 right before training
Next week
195
205
220
A decent one. Steady and stronger at the end
45 lbs
9 laps
4.5 miles
10,260 steps
dark for the first 45 min. Time change soon tho
No plantar fascia issues either. Just gotta keep that soleus soft!
173.6
Stronger than expected. stomach woke me up at 12 midnight ( too much onions spinach and garlic I guess in my new/old stir fry lunch) but the workout was strong.
and fast. I was worried about going too fast ( only glenn and me ) but sixes are NOT tens lol
Much better. good power, height control. don't want to jinx myself but I've been feeling like my old self again ( pre oct 7) since thursday. I'll take it
maybe the torque worked it's way out through the legs. I think the new hanging, stick shrugs and ring work stretching first thing is making a difference
171.8!
Got the plantar fascia to release finally. as before it was coming from a too tight soleus
I was going to just walk not ruck but it felt normal so I gave it a go and it was fine. went slowly just to be safe
45 lb ruck
6 laps
3 miles
56 min ( not too bad!)
no problem later than day or today ( friday)
173.8
This went great. Just outstanding. Everything went better than I hoped. Even realized how to line up under the X EXACTLY everytime ( duh, just don't roll the bar) The last four sets with 185 were all done this way and worked like a charm
Also, the tighter I keep the initital knee flex at the start actually the better pop I get. Too much knee flex gets soggy
As hopeful as I've been in the last 8 months about this move!
I got an overnight bad case of platarfascitis Saturday and all day Sunday so much so that I didn't even do a walk much less a ruck!
Then the anterior tib on my left leg started acting up and I could barely stand up!
FUCK
this is getting very very old
It's like a pin ball machine:from my leg thumb to my right thumb to my left lat to my right levator/neck first rib then down to the calves and feet!!
Hopefully the twist is working it's way completely out of my body. Crazy though that those other tweaks were non existent when my feet were acting up
But I could press and I got most of the dorsiflexion back as well as the ankle mobility
I decided to continue 'feeding the mistakes' by accepting the knee dip just as I did the elbow flare. Don't try to accentuate it but stop trying to stop it
Worked great and it gave me the best 215 I've done in months PLUS TWO 210 ( first one I worked the dip too much. fixed it on the second and much better. Plus two great 205s with solid lockouts!
173.
This was HAARD. Right first rib was out for SOME FUCKING WEIRD REASON RIGHT AFTER I GOT THE LEFT LAT TO SHUT UP
I hoped the swing would re set it ( which it did) but it meant so so sleep in mild pain when moving, and , of course anxiety
But got up early and did tons of Body Maintenace and things just kept moving better
THEN to the workout..
Each set was hard and rest were on the minute.Fuck. HR was 140 at least everytime I checked it and it got higher for sure
Didn't puke but I was breathing like a freight train, and coughing up a lung
Lovely
But I got it done and didn't die, but it was hard
172.4
