36 kg one arm swings



COLD morning so it was slow getting started.Had 36 kg swings on  my mind but wasn't sure if my grip would be good. Arms were still a bit tender from Wed 24 kg snatches :)

I was thinking of sets of five when I started but it felt strong so I laddered up

One arm swings
16 kg x 5/5 x 2
20 kg x 5/5
24 kg x 5/5
28 kg x 5/5
32 kg x 5/5
36 kg x 5/5,6/6,7/7 x 3 rungs
108 reps
8532 lb

very very decent. Usually this is the weight where my grip starts to talk back to me but it was fine. better than fine/ STRONG! It's a a trip how having TWO sides that actually work makes the whole body SO much stronger but it seems to be the case and I never really realized just how much not having left lower body support was killing me :)

Two hand swings, ballistic
40 kg x  10
         x 12
         x 14
         x 10
         x 12
these were tough too and just a few extra reps made a good difference. The guys were using JS bands on their bell and I'm not ready for that but a few extra reps made it a wee bit harder

Two hand CB arm cast
20 x 10/10
25 x 10/10
35 x 6/6

nice! the arm casts, as opposed to the shields don't bother my wrists and lower forearms as much and they will help bring back some upper body mass

SS Cycle : alternate arm casts with a  few minutes on the bike.  easy spinning now.

Bar curl
45 x 5
65 x 5
75 x 4
     x 3

arms now showing fatigue from Wed and all today. that's enough. solid work though. Energy good all the way through workout

Bodyweight: 150.6  :(
