120 reps total, I got these done in about 10 minutes, which is dense for me - I was moving.

7:15am - Complete

Notes -  Good session. Was somewhat cautious as the left wrist didn't feel great after noting discomfort Monday and Tuesday and then playing a softball game Tuesday evening (not the best remedy...).  Whole left arm felt "stretched out" and tight from swinging the bat.  With that said, everything actually felt ok and I was watching technique closely.  Extremely powerful swings, they all felt awesome.  I was pressed for time and really got the work in on the swings quickly and felt like 120 reps was fine for today.

6/18/13 Tuesday June 18, 2013 (TGUs)

6:00am - Original Strength and Primal Move - 45 minutes (a little extra - very tight from pressing on Monday)

6:45am - 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

7:00pm - Training session - Focus on TGUs

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

16kg, L 2, R 2
24kg, L/R 2X (alternating singles)

7:15am - Complete

Notes - This was fine in the circumstances. Body didn't feel that great as pressing is getting me somewhat tight.  Left wrist not feeling 100%, probably from cleaning, squatting, pressing last week - was a pretty big week for volume.  I have to watch things.  I will say the technique on the TGUs with the 24 was very, very good and those felt excellent.  Really keeping a locked elbow, moving slowing through each point of the movement, didn't bother the wrist at all due to the good focus on technique.  Bells also felt pretty light.
