Notes - Finally getting to logging this on Saturday morning. Great training session. I really like how my back and adductors have been feeling lately. Likely a number of reasons, but the adjustments in training are clearly helping. Separately blocks of squats and presses seems good for me right now. Doing both particularly in the same training day didn't seem to help. The bodyweight movements continue to be a very good thing. My glutes and abs feel turned on, tightness and overload on the adductors has subsided. Need to keep this rolling.

Very happy with this volume and density in 20 minutes. 150 total reps including 60 with the 28kg bell which is a PR on reps for one session. It's been a little while since I hit a PR with anything so this is a nice plus.

Notes - Very pleased with this training session. My body is really responding well to snatching these days. The extension work I think is really good and helping balance out pressing over a long period of time. Something about this is really working for me right now. These snatches with the 28kg are the strongest I have ever experienced with that bell size. I could see us continuing in this vein, really getting good at the 28, and moving to the 32. But also keeping lighter snatching in the mix. There may be something to really mine out of this movement.

Notes - Writing this on Sunday night. Really good training session, I am excited, things are improving. I liked doing a pull-up after each set of presses. I could really, really feel my lats engaging on the pull-ups, using my lats, not pulling with elbow, arms. Felt good and I think is a great balance to the presses. I think I do better when I can break up press sets with either active mobility or something simple like this.

Notes - Great training session. I like what we are doing here. Bracing of the abs on swings is helping. Various different mobility work and a focus on switching things up is helping the adductors and left hip. This training is challenging me with some weaker areas and I like the training effects a lot. Was up to up reps to 3 today, longer time under tension, very good stuff.
