35lb ruck 3 mile 44:17 14:44 pace!

This was hard. Started out great though and the first mile flew by without trying.I was worried about my left shin tightening and sure enough it after another 1/2 mile more

I thought it was an anterior tib weakness but now I think its rec fem weakness and my ant tib is overworking for an underworking hip flexor

Gonna add in higher knee lifts,done slower in  my 100 ups and some band hip flexion work and see if that. helps

that being said the time is SECOND BEST EVER  so I cant complain too much plus it was 80+ degrees

167.8! 

170 x 1 x. 11, 175 x 1 185 x 1, 20 kg H2H x 6 x 20 sets band rear delts 3 x 20 standing

 This went great. pretty much every set/rep the same. Key mistake is not holding the cross bar spot long enough. If I look up too early bar goes forward

transfers were solid too. actually very very different than one arm swings, I definitely  couldnt do 40 x 6 with 32 kg Doing both versions is good for now

167.4

11.9 at 4 am

172.5 x 1 x 20, BW squats 6 x 10

 This went perfectly, everything was better than the last time I did this. Unrack was perfect, hold was solid(pause) drive initiation was spot on . Only had two reps where I didnt hold eye contact long enough and bar went forward ( a bit) but 20 sets!

Two more weeks of this then up to 175 and build from 12 or so to 20 sets

BW squats were great. Slow controlled and focusing on being upright and deep

11.9

5 mile 35 lb ruck 1:13:49 14:45 pace

 This went well.Slept pretty well and body parts were fine. Not great energy or head space but neither were bad

Decided to purposely slow the first mile and see if that help keep the anterior tib from light up.Which it did until the last mile

But cant complain about the time: fourth fastest ever

I think first mile was 15:24 or something close. belt squats did not overly tighten or fatigue legs so they stay

166.6

12.0

32 kg swing 40 x 5 in 40 min 40 kg belt squats 3 x 8, rev grip pullaparts 3 x 20

This was solid. Workman like, Everything held together

Strict on the minute  

Brought back belt squats as it seems I've more leg issues rucking since switching things up
We'll see tomorrow

For some reason didnt post this! Best ever

 

35lb ruck 3 miles in 44:25 4:47 pace ( 3rd best)

 This was hard despite perfect overcast sprinkly weather. Started out fast and my left anterior tib started getting tight
Still could keep decent pace but wasnt sure how it would end up

But it was good overall

Just not easy

12.3 at 4 am

170 x 1 x 14, 16 kg transfer swings 15 x 6, 20 kg transfers 5 x 6 , band rear delt 4 x 20

 This went pefectly. Virtually identical reps and my holds at the start were stronger.

Doing transfers instead of one arms worked cool too. havent trained these in years now

did 15 sets of 6 to see how things felt then went up to 20. kg no problem 

168.4 at workout time
