5/3/13 Friday May 3, 2013 (TGUs)


6:00am - Joint mobility drills and Primal Move - 30 minutes


6:30am - Kettlebell warm up ("Standard")

1/2K halos - 8kg, 4X each side / each leg (total 16X)
1/2K pullover - 12 kg, 5X each leg

1/2K halos - 12kg, 4X each side / each leg (total 16X)
1/2K pullover - 16 kg, 5X each leg
Roll to press (TGU start) - shoulder cam shafts, each arm

6:45pm - Training session - Focus on TGUs

Warm up -
Tall kneeling 1H press with 16 kg, 5 L/R
Windmills with 16 kg, 3X L/R

With the 16, then I basically then worked naked getups and gets up to the elbow and then to the hand, going L to R, for about 20 minutes or so on advice of Kevin.  Just searching for the right hand position, really pulling up to the down elbow, locking out the elbows, screwing in the down arm, pushing away on the down elbow back to the starting position.  Just really trying to dial this up big time.  Will continue to do this for TGU days into the near future before adding more load.

7:15am - Complete

Notes - Given the time under load (basically the brunt of 20 minutes), even with a 16, I could feel the muscles working.  Lots of good cues from Kevin and I already feel I have some things to focus on and make this lift a lot better.  My shoulders felt awesome afterward.  I can also tell some interesting things are happening with the Primal Move work as well.
