35 lb 3 mile ruck 45:17 15:04 ave pace 3rd fastest time

 Very happy with this considering legs were toast after yesterdays heavy swings for volume

tough going last mile but solid times!

169.6

32 kg swings 10x10, 15x5 25 lb CB Pressouts 5 x 6, band ext 4 x 20

 This went well despite a hectic morning and not enough sleep. Focused on the whole foot setup and now I know why I wasnt getting legs into my swings for so long. I forgot this critical part of the balance setup But its back and man I could feel my legs and the groove was remembered

Did the first 5 x 10 at least on the minute but then slow down just a bit for second set.For the next sets of 5 it was about the same pace and I could feel fatigue in my lower back a bit so I sat back more and got more extension at the top

Not bad 175 reps all strong 

170.4

20 lb CB Casts 5-6 ladder x 2, pushups/bw squats ss, hammers pushdowns rear delts

35 lb Ruck 3 miles in 44:51 14:54 ave pace

 Second best three mile time!  It seems the key to getting the right average pace is getting a fast first mile lol- go figure

GREAT night sleep before hand too

170.0

CB arm cast 5 x 5/5 15 lbs Floor pushups. DB hammers,db ext db laterals

 This went well but felt very easy. too easy but I know theres NO guarantee something wont yell tomorro

Ironically too I woke up at 170 lbs! nuts

This will be Mondays new workout Wed will be swipes as main course and crawls after

Last Barbell Press session

 At least for the foreseeable future. Feeling that pinch mid spine even at lightweights on the layback

That position has been mined out it seems. It sucks but hurting my  back again in a NEW way would such even more

Its been a fun 12 years

two misses badly at 205. My brain was definitely telling me  it would NOT let be bend back with that load. It just shut down

I listened.

35lb ruck 5 miles in 1:17:30 15:28 ave

 Better than last week but how the hell did I ever do 5 miles in 1:14?!

Felt really good and strong right from the start and my pace was solid 15:15 and below the whole time but I doesn't show up in the ave pace. all that being said better than the last two weeks

168.8

48kg Swings 20 x 5 29 min, 48 kg belt squats 4 x10, press 105 x 1 x 5, band rear delts 4x15

 This went well. Started off with the 'lock in standing plank' then decided to go back to a higher cadence technique and not worry about locking holding knee so much and just try to build momentum with the bell

Speed was obviously better but so was height

Trying to keep weight mid foot( my takeaway many years ago from squatting on stability  ball) seemed right.

Going to do the 48 EACH WEEK  for awhile now and see if it gets stronger and better
