Notes - Enjoyed this today. Was in very hot weather yesterday afternoon, and worked in my yard for several hours before this training session to get everything cleaned up. I played in a series of kickball games yesterday and I knew my hips and hamstrings would probably be very very tight after the games, and they were / are. Did a ton of running the bases etc. and honestly I surprised myself a bit with how fast I was moving, with a lot of athleticism. Felt great. I am certain I have dropped some weight too from even taking the SFG II two weeks ago, at least several pounds, enough to really notice. Even though I am sore today there are some good things to note here. I am working hard on mobility work and just loosening up those hips and hamstrings. The swings and the cleans felt good today and getting some hinging I think helps.

8/19/16 Friday August 19, 2016 (training with Kevin)
6:20am - Training with Kevin
Good training day with Kevin. We worked through the Primal Move series again in full, and I picked up a few things through that process that I had forgotten about. We also did work on the hamstrings with Perform Better bands. Did some TGUs, some kick stand dead lifts (single and double bell with the 24s - really like the double bells, that was a legit strength lift). Got into some back and forth with hike swing parks, 2, 3, 5 with the 32kg, sandwiched around 10 reps of 24kg swings. Lot of swings, this was good. Did pick up a blister on the right pinkie finger which was extremely odd. I think I had and unusual grip on the bells and perhaps a bell with a rough edge. Not a huge deal. Finished with various work on bands for the forearm / elbow to focus on alleviating issues with the right elbow. All of that work was great. Am going to buy a couple of these bands from Perform Better. Kevin also wants me to get a sledge hammer, which can be used to work the forearm. These antagonistic muscles to those on the underside of the arm, used for pressing, need some attention to balance things out. Going to stay focused. This should all be very good.
7:55am - Finished
