Busy and very good day. Went to Greenlake with the kids and in the early afternoon and banged out pull-ups and push-ups.
Hanging from bar
7 pull-ups
5 push-ups (5 regular)

Total pull-ups - 29, was able to bump up by 1 rep and start out 7/7 this week on the first two sets, 25 push-ups, same as last week, I did them all regular (no Lizard style) to limit stress on the R elbow. I thought I would be ready for the increase by a rep and I was, which was very good I thought. First time to 29 pull-ups in this set/rep range and felt strong. Will look to add one to next week and see how that feels.
Did 20 minutes of my KB aerobic work with a single 24kg bell.
Warm up
GSq, 5
2H SW, 10
H2H SW, 10
CL, 3/3
BU CL, 1/1, x 2
SN, 1/1
KB aerobics - 14 minutes, my hands were sweaty, and the snatches in particular didn't feel that great (partially due to not having good grip on the bell, but also due to snatching yesterday I think)
sets of
CL, PR, SQ, SN, shake out, switch hands
did 8 or so sets
Ended with 6 minutes of Jerks, and decided to go ladder style with higher reps just for a bit of conditioning work
10/10, 8/8, 6/6, 4/4
Total of 28 reps per side, 56 reps total
The Jerks felt great. I like this movement a lot, I like practicing it, and I think doing it with a lighter single bell like this, but with some higher reps, can be a very good conditioning tool. I liked it and also felt like I was able to groove the movement better, especially the connection of the arm to the body, keeping the bell going up with a little push off the chest, tight to the body, and coming down in a straight line as well, no elbow flare or wasted movement. This was good.
