Jerks
Was SO tight in the traps and neck today for no good reason so decided to use the 24 kg and ramp up the reps slowly with ladders.
LC Clean and Jerks
36x5/5x2
44x5/5
53x5/5
x6/6
x7/7
x8/8
x9/9
x10/10
90 total reps with 53
these were pretty easy although my left wrist was out from the BU clean with the Bulldog. No real problem , just tight forearm flexors pulled the wrist out...

Swings and presses.
Another workout at Girya. I'm really starting to enjoy training at the studio. The mat just rocks and not being frozen to the core really helps too
) Stones still has the biggest place in my heart but the studio is definitley on the schedule now.
Two hand swings
63#x30 seconds on 30 second off for ten sets.
Whew! this was tough. Alternated with Joe set for set as he did his two kb long cycle clean and jerks and I did the...

More two pood presses.
It seems that my body receives injuries, or pre-injuries, as its way of telling me that the current regimine is not the right course or way of proceeding. I liked the idea of the ten minute clean and jerk test but my body did not.
When I work against a clock I always push as hard as I can that day. Years of competing have trained me to ignore little signs of fatigue and pain to achieve the goal. Even if its a submaximal goal working at doing...

The Power Squat of Kettlebells.
Decided to take my own advice and ease up on the snatches and pullups every workout.I know why I am always looking for an alternative to the two hand swing- because it's so hard that I'll take any excuse to do something else! Man,these kill me more than any other kb swing. Right in the weak points too: the hips/glutes and my ability to do high intensity reps. But I need to do more again.
Left shoulder was feeling a bit strained after...

A Real All time PR.
I'd pretty much given up on ever getting an all time personal best in any lift again.I set some pretty decent standards for myself back in the day and I've sworn off training or pushing above 90% these days as I just dont want any new injuries and it's nice the old ones are healing. So when I bottoms up clean and pressed the 24kg I was extremely suprised and happy.
I have tried to do that for many years but my right shoulder wouldnt go past half...
