Notes - Writing this on Saturday night, wrapping up the trip to Hawaii. It's been great. This training session was good yesterday. Arnold Press is two dumbbells at sides, curl up with palms facing, press overhead with palms away at lockout. The feeling of two (dumb)bells overhead is something I have not experienced in quite some time as I have not double pressed overhead in a long while. Today I played basketball and swam in the ocean (again). Fantastic trip, feeling good all around. A lot of relaxation but enough movement (and sunshine) to keep me happy. A great way to be closing 2017, which has been a huge year for me. Engagement in February, new house in June, sold old house in July, turned 40 in August, new job in October. Wow. Looking forward to closing the page on a very memorable year and turning my attention to a brand new year with more opportunities to come in 2018. From a training standpoint, I believe this will be the year that I achieve the Beast Press and get that 48kg pressed. I believe I will do it with both arms. The main thing is stay healthy and get to that goal the same way I have reached previous milestones. Build a big base with consistency, never compromise form, pay attention to details, try and get just a little bit better every day.
