Notes - Very pleased with this training session.  Heavy 2H SW are coming along, these are great for power.  I am somewhat tempted to get a couple of heavier kettlebells, haven't bought any in years.  However I think the barbell has to come next.  Jerks going very well.  I think the time in lockout with a heavy bell is definitely helping stability.  I am delighted at how good my left shoulder has felt.  The bodywork combined with lower body focused training plan has been working very, very well.  Really pleased.  With some of the stuff I have been doing, I might be at my strongest.  Which is why next week is going to be a backoff week:)

Notes - Happy with this training session.  Mixed it up and did some 1H SW, haven't done much of those in some time, and more snatches. 72 total snatches, much more than I have done in some time.  Those movements both felt very solid.  Lunges were strong.  Easier to do this without double swings in a complex like I have been doing.

Notes - Very good training session.  Decided to do the swings first, I am focusing these days on the power movements first, grinds / strength work second.  Jerks are also a power movement, more of a ballastic, but at lower reps with a pretty challenging weight, they are not easy.  I like the pairing with push-ups.
