Notes - Not quite sure what to make of the last couple of days events. I woke up on Sunday morning feeling pretty tight in my left oblique / low left back / hip. A pattern from the past, which was brought on my very tight abductors. Low and behold, they are super tight, as are my hamstrings. I worked them yesterday but again today this morning for at least an hour with other mobility work. I think it could have been the introduction of some new movements on Friday - the double snatch and jerk? I have had issues with the double jerk before. Maybe heavy 1H SW test on Saturday with the 32kg? Windmills maybe? It's hard to say. But my body is barking a bit. I also could probably use better overall recovery. It's been a long road prepping for SFG2 and perhaps this is my body just talking back a bit from the accumulated volume. I was judicious today during training, focused on technique, tried to be extremely controlled. Wouldn't you know the seesaw press and squats felt fine, and I got a PR too, 5 sets of 4s. What the hell. I was running short on time and didn't want to over push things so I did 5 controlled sets of 2H swing with the 48kg, and said that's it, time to live to train another day. I am going to work the recovery hard in the next 48 hrs, particularly tried to get to these abductors and hamstrings.
