Notes - Back from Palm Springs, this was a bit more challenging than I anticipated. Did a lot of relaxing over the weekend, thought I would be able to hit this hard, but perhaps the traveling and flying and more traveling this morning threw me off. It was 6 hours from leaving the house in Palm Springs until getting back to my house in Seattle, so I should have considered that some more. In any event, this was a PR to get triples of the military press with the 36kg. I have never done a triple with this weight, so that's awesome. Been noticing that my right forearm and elbow were a little stiff/tight after my heavy day last Thursday, fine all weekend, a bit of the same today after the training session. I think my lats are tight and I need some soft tissue work to balance some things out.

2/18/17 Saturday February 18, 2017 (a little training in Palm Springs)
Went to the Thunderbird Country Club in Palm Springs and messed around
11:15am - Start
This gym had some plastic kettlebells in weights from 8 pounds to 25 pounds (yeah, not kilos, haha) so I just messed around for a bit with the 25 pound bell, and then the 25 and 20 pound bells for stacking.
25lb bell
Arm bars, get-ups, presses
1H SW, cleans, presses, squats, snatches
Tried to clean a 60 lb dumbbell, odd motion, hard to balance the DB, so different than a KB
Dead lift a 75lb DB 5L, 5R
Stacking a 25 and 20 lb KB, loaded cleans, overhead walks
11:45am - Complete
Notes - Fun stuff, just enough to get a little bit of work in, felt pretty good.

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

11:55am - Complete
Notes - Wow, this was tough, and I knew it was going to be. One less day to recover from heavy training as I am flying tonight with Leah to Palm Springs for 4 days of rest and relaxation, so had to move the standard Friday training up a day. That is challenging when you are working with heavy weights and setting PRs at what seems like every training session. Some rest is absolutely needed and is much appreciated. With that said 5 sets of triples for C&P with a 36kg, are you serious? This is great. Lots of R&R now though, comes at the exact right time and then I can work on getting through triples on military presses with the 36kg next week to close the cycle.

Notes - Well that's another PR with the 36kg for C&P, triples for 4 sets. Great stuff. My only potential concern is that I am traveling late Thursday pm to Palm Springs for the long weekend, so I will have to move up my Friday training day to Thursday. Two days in a row could be a lot. Going to take extremely long rest breaks, and also I am not going to train in the early am, try to get a little more rested and be as fresh as possible for this.
