Notes - Slept like a rock and completely right through my alarm, but I felt better this morning having done that.  Busy weekend and I needed those extra hours.  Got behind this morning as a result but that's ok.  This was a solid training session.  Pressing the 24kg felt great.  Actually doing everything with the 24kg felt great.

11/7/15 Saturday November 7, 2015 (BU FSQ 20kg / pistols / SLDLs + push-ups)

Writing this on Sunday evening late after a very long weekend, but very fun.  A co worker got married on Saturday night and I had one hell of a night.

I got training in during Saturday afternoon before the festivities began.

Primal move warm-up (feeling very good)

Kettlebell warm up

1/2K halos - 8kg, 4X each side / each leg (total 16X)
1/2K halos - 12kg, 4X each side / each leg (total 16X)
16kg Roll to press (TGU start) - shoulder cam shafts, each arm
Arm bar 16kg, 1+1, x 2
Crooked Arm bar 16kg with 3 presses and rotations, 1/1

BU FSQ 20kg, 3/3
Push-ups, 5

Pistols, 1/1
Push-ups, 5

BU FSQ 20kg, 3/3
Push-ups, 5

SLDLs 20kg, 3/3
Push-ups, 5

BU FSQ 20kg, 3/3
Push-ups, 5

Total 9/9 BU FSQ 20kg, 25 push-ups

Notes - Good all around.  Noticed later in the evening and today, pretty tight in the R trap, same old spot, and R knee sore which I suspect was from the pistols.  Pistols didn't feel all that great.  Was not getting very good depth.  Hamstrings too tight.  Those are dropped and that's why I only did the one set.  No need to mess around with those right now but I just wanted to see if I still had the movement capability.

Notes - Good day.  End of a training cycle, resting yesterday was a good idea.  Body is feeling sore, but it's not from training, I think I may be coming down with something.  Both of my kids are sick.  Need to get a great night's sleep tonight. Have to check with Kevin as to where I go from here for training but this has been very productive.

Wednesday, November 4, 2015

11/4/15 Wednesday November 4, 2015 (20kg CL/PR ladders, 24kg 2H, 1H SW, 20kg 1H SW)

9:00am - belly breathing, Primal Move practice, lacrosse ball release, hip and hamstring stretches, quadruped shoulder rotations against the wall   - 50 minutes (moving very slow, needed a lot of soft tissue work)

9:50am - Kettlebell warm up

1/2K halos - 8kg, 4X each side / each leg (total 16X)
1/2K halos - 12kg, 4X each side / each leg (total 16X)
16kg Roll to press (TGU start) - shoulder cam shafts, each arm
Arm bar 16kg, 1+1, x 2
Crooked Arm bar 16kg with 3 presses and rotations, 1/1

10:05am- Training session - 20kg CL/PR ladders, 24kg 2H, 1H SW, 20kg 1H SW

2x:
Glute raises, 5
49kg DL, 5
20kg TK PR, 3/3, x 2

20kg CL/PR, 1/1, 2/2, 3/3 x 3

18 CL, 18 PR each arm (light day, up from 1/1, 2/2 last week)

15 minutes:

Various alternating swing sets of the following

24kg 2H SW, go until form degrades, rest
24kg 2H SW HSP
20kg 1H SW
24kg 1H SW

Felt good to get reps in with the 1H 24kg.  Makes me really focus on the leg drive and hip snap.  Kept the reps low on those, but went well. Encouraging.  2H SW are very powerful these days, this is good.

10:45am - Complete

11:00am - Chiro adjustment

Notes - Late night last night, had to sleep in.  Slow start to the day, needed a lot of soft tissue work primarily on my thoracic spin on the R trap, and R pec, R scalenes on the neck, same spots that have been tight.  Got a chiropractic adjustment and other work after training that helps for sure.  Training itself felt good once I got going.  Grooving into a nice clean and press now that I have a number of reps under my belt the last few weeks.  Swings are powerful.  Some good things are happening, I just need to clean up this stuff on my R side a bit more.
