Notes - Writing this on Sunday night. Feeling really great. Good session yesterday, very easy, I like the low-stress approach to these Saturday sessions, these are working really well for me. Played basketball, coached baseball on Saturday. Sunday took a 5 mile walk with Leah, then worked for 3 hours in the yard, then took a meditative yoga class. Was overall a great weekend. Lots of progress over the last several months.

Notes - Extremely pleased with this session today. Snatches felt great. Significant power. Strong hinge. 28 feels like the 24. 20 is about to fly out of my hand 10 feet into the air if I don't control it going into lockout:) Love this movement. Think it has done wonders for my hips and low back.

Notes - Writing this on Monday night. Solid training session, this was the culminating session with the heaviest load in this cycle. Not easy by any stretch. I find that complexes with the 3s are harder than doing 5s but setting down between each movement. Finishing with lunges each set is just tough. You have to hold onto those damn bells and they want to spill out. On the push presses I was feeling like I was able to push my elbows into the top of my hips on the dip and really drive up overhead. Probably the best that movement has felt since I have been practicing it.

Things have come a long way in the last couple of months.

Notes - Writing this on Sunday night. Feeling really good, all weekend long. Took my bells with me to Spokane on Thursday/Friday morning for work commitments - had a very good training session. Subbed out pull-ups for rows as I didn't have good access to a pull up bar or equivalent. 28kg bell is feeling a lot like a 24kg for snatching, great sign. The snatching focus has been very productive, this is a good lift for me and really seems to help open up my posterior chain.
