4/6/18 Friday April 6, 2018 (training with Kevin)

6:10am - Training with Kevin

Great day of training with Kevin.  Warmed up with some foam roll, practiced some 4 sits (adductor stretch), and cossack stretches.  Opened up my hip flexors and adductors well.  Did some get-ups.  We then worked on some double bottoms up cleans to front squats with 16s, which is a movement I have done before but it's been some time.  It keeps the squat pattern for the body but forces you to use really good form.  I like it, and we'll be incorporating this.  We did some bottoms up pressing as well with the 20kg, with the same idea, keep the pressing pattern while not focusing on pressing.  We then did some 2H SW with the 24kg, then 1H SW with the 24kg, things felt really good.  Practiced some snatching with the 20kg, then 24kg, then 28kg, which I have not snatched in a while.  All felt really good and we are going to move up to use the 28kg in this training block, which will be good.  Ended with some double push presses with the 24s, which felt and looked good.  Going to continue training in this block using largely the same movements, 1H SW, snatching, push presses. Moving up to larger KBs.

7:30am - Done
