September 21, 2021: SW, GU, MP, ZDL

Played around with chinup grip. Hangs feel really tight. Slow, with rotation on rings hurt on my left shoulder. slow on a bar felt OK, though. Need to get back to being able to do chinups! SW: 00:00 24 kg x left x 10 01:00 24 kg x left x 10 03:00 24 kg x left x 10 04:00 24 kg x left x 10 06:00 24 kg x left x 10 07:00 24 kg x left x 10 09:00 24 kg x left x 10 10:00 24 kg x left x 10 11:00 24 kg x left x 10 12:00 24 kg x left x 10 - haven't gone this light in a while, also haven't done 100 swings in a while. Nice opportunity to sort out some form things: weight distribution and hinge dept GU: bw: rf, full, stepover style 8 kg: rf, full, stepover style x 2 alternating singles. Halting progress, but nonetheless, progress walk and break MP: 20 kg x 5L/R, 5L/R - using GLAG-P, excellent set of cues! Thank you, Fabio!! Zercher DL: 155 lb, worked on getting a better starting position, which I did, but then got an ab cramp after the 2nd rep, so only 2 reps today. This is a good weight for a while for me on this movement.

    What does GLAG-P stand for ?
    Thanks.

    You'll find an explanation in several places, among them here: https://www.strongfirst.com/one-arm-one-leg-pushups-and-the-center-of-the-universe/

    I should note that, although the blog's introduction mentions me as being a few months shy of my 57th birthday, I am now a few months shy of my 67th birthday.
