9:10 - Complete
Notes - Very good training today, I am pleased. I moved essentially the same weight as last week in the complex, hitting a top ladder of 6 squats, and appropriately determined that was going to be the top set today. Sleep was ok, but I am still working through some tightness in various spots, noticeably this morning the lats, obliques, hamstrings, and glutes, and want to continue to dial in the techniques. This is a heavy weight session for me so simply being able to do it, and improve the quality of the work in a week in the circumstances is very important. I did bump up the weight in the rows to 28kg, which was absolutely fine, I would have no issue doing 32kg off the box, I may be getting closer to being able to have two 32kgs on the ground and then practice rowing one at a time. We'll see. I like that movement quite a bit. Need some good solid recovery before snatching on Friday. Hands are a little bit beaten up, need to treat those the next couple of days. Nothing major but time to stay vigilant.
