Press, pistol, Steinborn/Inman

Lower back returning to normal

stretch

bw crane pistol, lf, 1 each way on the front porch

20 kg: mil press, lf, x 1-2-3

walk

Steinborn Inman - doubles and one single, total 9, with 95 lbs.  Working on Steinborn technique after having back issues with previous session.

Started with a Steinborn up and 10 reps of SQ - need to keep squatting and keep Steinborning because, right now, I can't Steinborn my Inman weight but I want to be able to.

A pistol, a few swings, and a few presses

Wednesday:

bw crane pistol x 1L, 1R - excellent, on front porch

later

20 kg: 1h swing x 10L+10R no break

20 kg mil press, lf, 3 - back still a little sore on left side, and funny but right oblique also sore - maybe from pistol earlier, maybe from back tweaking a couple of days ago, don't know but am going to stop here for today and stretch more later.

Steinborn/Inman

Monday:

Steinborn/Inman

140 lbs

3 reps x 2 sets of Steinborn, walk 2 laps after second set

Balance wasn't good, tweaked back by rotating lumbar/hips putting the bar down

Very sore later, with my wife's help got my back realigned, took 1 Aleve

Tuesday:

Felt much better today, just sore.

24: mil press, lf, 2

20: mil press, lf, 1, 1

My mil press is very weak, and this isn't good for my back.  Need to keep up with this better.

Was able to nose-breath throughout and stay mindful and in the moment throughout as well.

Used narrower grip, kept it throughout.

Raining so no Steinborn/Inman outside, but swings instead

Swings, Steinborn/Inman

A few swings and things while training Sat AM.

Sunday, walk about 3 mi

Monday, today:

24 kg: swings, in 10's on short rests, 40 total

much later

Steinborn/Inman - 2 trips, 1 trip, 1 trip - volume PR this Spring but tired so didn't go for a single long one.  Shoulders still a little sore from getting used to the weight.

Steinborn/Inman

24 kg: MP x 1L/R upstairs

Steinborn Inman - focus is on distance

105 lbs.,

Ip from left, 7 reps, down on right

Up from right, walk driveway 3 times, total about 150 yards - same as last time, but we are building up weekly volume and doing more felt possible but like it would have required too much recovery - everything was fine, was nose breathing, just shoulders were tired of the bar.


A few hours later

24 kg: swing 10L+10R no break

PU: bw + 20 kg on left, short rest, bw + 20 kg on right

A few swings

Some stretching

Lots of driving

24 kg: swing 10R+10L no break, rest about 3:00, swing 10L+10R, and done.

Inman: 150 yards w/ 105 lbs.

Cossack sequence

105 lb: Steinborn up from right, 5 reps, down left
up left, driveway round trip x 3, so about 150 yards

Steinborn + Inman

Steinborn 100 lb.  up from left, 3 deep, paused reps, down on right

Up from right and walk out of the driveway, across the street, up the hill on Evergreen, turn around and come back to the start.  Guesstimate 200 yards

Swings, Presses, Steinborn Squat, Inman Walk

Some early breathing and stretching

ROP Light Day - 20 kg, 5 x (1-2) or equivalent - 30 reps

Swings:

32 kg x 10 2h, rest

24 kg x 10L, rest, 10R, rest, 10L, rest, 10R, rest

32 kg x 10 2h, and done

Press:

20 kg x 5

32 kg: clean + jerk + yielding press: 1L, 1R

Decided to forego the rest of the presses and clean up the basement gym, and also get some bar walking in.

100 lbs: Steinborn up from right, stand up, 1 full squat rep, lower on left.
Then pick up on left side and walk round-trip of driveway so approximately 100 meters.  Bounce off.

Did a single OHS w/ empty bar - miss these, will do them more now.

More ROP

Yesterday, 30 swings w/ 24 kg as 10-2h, rest, 10L+10R w/ no rest

Today

short walk, almost no stretching

24: swing, 10L, rest, 10R, rest, 10L, rest, 10R

Lats weren't tight at the top but hip snap was good.  Been working on right shoulder staying down and making progress there.

20 kg ROP Medium:

Plan calls for 5 x (1-2-3), decided to do 3 x (2-3-5) instead,  30 reps either way

I am definitely getting stronger on this pressing program and, so far, missing last week's Light Day doesn't seem to be a problem.
