Notes - An outstanding training session. I went back through my training logs and I don't know that I have done 6 sets of doubles for C&P with the 36kg before, I think this is a PR.  Very, very pleased with this effort.  Had a couple of nights of good sleep and felt strong this morning.  Noticing some body comp changes the last few weeks.  Starting to thicken up again, and my appetite is significant.  Going to have to watch what I am eating as I am trying to keep the weight down.  Looks like the body wants to grow again.  Going to try and drink a lot of water.

15 minutes KB aerobics
36kg 1H SW, CL, FSQ, set down, switch hands

Didn't keep track but I would guess 12 to 13 sets

Band wrist extensions, 10 x 2 sets per hand
6lb sledgehammer hammer rotations, 12/12

8:20am - Complete

Notes - Adding back in a 4th more rigorous training day.  The 36kg, a good bell.  Nice to know I can move this around with a lot of confidence.  Particularly noticed very solid cleans, which led to solid front squats. Used to be a little shakier with the 36kg in the rack for a single bell front squat, and needed to use the offhand to stabilize.  Not today.  All of the focus lately on racking the KB is paying off.
