Rings, BP, DL

Today, Thursday

short run at the end of breathing walk.  Found better/different form but left ankle's increased ROM started to hurt, so stopped.  Walked a bunch to keep it loose the rest of the day, and it seems perfectly fine now.

Rings:  FL x 1, 1, StC + FL x 1

BP: 95 lbs. x 5, 95 lbs. x 8, 105 lbs. x 8.  All paused on the chest.

DL: conventional, 275 lbs. double over hand

x 1 - bar rolled a bit after landing so stopped this set there

x 2- these 95% t-n-g reps are tough, and my back is tight and my abs and grip are already tired.  Discretion is the better part of valor so just 2 this set

x 2 - tried to stay more vertical on these.  Enough for today, lower back is tired, and I did run today, too - not sure I've deadlifted after running before.

SN, GS

short run after breathing walk

later, short walk

SN: 16 kg x 5L, 5R, 5L, 5R, 10L, 10R, 15L, 15R = 70 reps

Haven't done snatches in a long time, relearning how to dial-in the right amount of hip snap for the weight, and also turning it around at the back quickly.  All on untimed rests, about 10 minutes for the above.

Goblet Squat - 32 kg by 2 reps, just to put back into a good place, has been feeling tight today

24 kg x 2, PU + 16 kg x 2 on right, 20 kg x 4 = 12 reps

and that will do for Medium day today

break

DL: 275, conventional, 95% touch, double over

Pistol, Rings, SW, Barbell FSQ and 1-leg DL

Today, Thursday:

walk

start to practice pistols from bottom up on porch steps - no go left, right good

Rings:

front lever as always, holding for a little closer to parallel and a little longer.  Pushed myself a little harder this time.

StC, went even further, tough to come back because abs were tired but managed - but no front lever hold at the end.


SW:

20 kg x 10L+10R in :40, rest until 2:00

24 kg x 10R+10L, done - 40 swings

break

Later:

Barbell FSQ: 95 lbs x 3 - working on staying really upright, not easy

Barbell 1-leg DL x 3L/R - touch and go, pretty ugly but better than earlier in the week so that's good

SW, MP

Today, Wednesday

walk, including windmills @ bw x 3R/L

stretch (cossack sequence)

SW

32 kg: 12L, rest 1:00, 12R - better

MP: 20 kg x 4L/R

SW, GU/MP combo

Today, Tuesday

short walk

SW:

32 kg, 15L, rest 1:00, 15R - started easy, just a pendulum, so not really 15 good swings each side, just a way to do it differently.

GU/MP: 16 kg getup, weight on left side first, press negative then positive from:

0.  Optional press from belly/chest with 1 hand.

1.  Elbow

2.  Hand

3.  2 knees and hand

4.  Tall kneeling

5.  Standing

6.  Tall kneeling

7.  2 knees and hand

8.  Hand

9.  Elbow

9 presses in total, optional 10, and optional lower with 1 hand

Both are, but especially right, fatigued by the end and completing the presses was challenging.

DL, Sumo, 95 lbs. x 3

DL, 1-leg:, 95 lbs. (rubber 25's) x 1L, 1R, 1L, 1R - ugly but second reps were better.  Preload matters a lot.

DL, 1-arm, 95 lbs. x 5R, 5L, light touch-n-go

barbell CL: cleaned 95 lb bar, thought about pressing it but rack was uncomfortable, so walked it over to the squat stands
