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.

Notes - Personal best today with the 36kg press.  Doubles, for 7 sets.  Strongest ever.  Small technique cues for pressing toes and balls of feet into the ground have been huge.  Took plenty of rest between sets to ensure that I was truly ready to go.  Really happy with this.  32kg 2H SW, feeling snappy and powerful.
