Notes -  Good day here.  Doing the Simple and Sinister routine this week every day until training with Kevin on Friday, using a 28kg bell.  The swings were really pretty easy which was great.  Really trying to dial technique and watching the R wrist very closely, continuing to really focus on being very solid on that side and particularly on the height of the swing, keeping a tight grip on that bell and not letting it run out on me at all.  Very good results today, have to keep this going.  For TGUs, very pleased as well to get 5 good reps on the L side with the 28kg.  Perhaps I am starting to get through some of the issues I have had lately on this side.  Still don't like my off leg (leg opposite the bell side) coming up and not staying planted on the roll to elbow as much as I want, but it was better than it has been.  R side continues to be easy with no real technical issues.  If I can get S&S in every day this week, I will certainly get some reps under the belt with the 28kg so more time to work on this technique.  Felt refreshed afterwards, back really felt great, might have been the extra TGU reps.  Interesting.
