"And in those simple beautiful movements I remembered what was really important in training; that consistency trumps intensity; all the time. That intensity is born from consistency. That one cannot force it, one has to lay in wait for it, patiently, instinctively, calmly and be ready to grab it when Grace lays it down in front of you."

Sunday Ruck: A goldilocks workout
No problem. Not too hard, not too slow and not too fast. Just right for a Sunday after a heavy ass swing and squat workout yesterday.
Although I did get too much lat involvement yesterday with the front squat.Legs were fine but my lats got overused after all those swings AND holding the 28's for reps. Looks like I have to go back to the Goblets. No worries, at least those help me get my chest up and out- the front squats, even if I work hard at it, tend to pull me into flexion because of the position of both bells in front.
Decided not to do the iso squats today because of the lats but ended up putting them in at lap seven. the legs needed a stretch; worked out fine.
