Also, YES to Springtime The bar slipped in my grip, fingers were starting to go (yay carpal tunnel), but I went ahead and powered through the lift. By the time I got to the top I had 3 fingers still working one one hand and two fingers working on the other. Took a few minutes before they started working again. Probably should have used straps, but I didn't. Quote The Battle Chef's Log Link to comment

The Battle Chef Posted January 8, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2019 Well, I hired a coach for some distance programming and I do not regret it. Shout out to Paul Hynes http://hynesperformance.ca/ for delivering exactly what I asked for. He comes from the StrongFirst school of strength, so Pavel Tsatsouline's influence will be felt (which is not a bad thing.) Wanted a program to address my weaknesses while I recovered from surgery, so an emphasis on: - Conditioning - Power - Unilateral legs movements (split squats/lunges) - Kettlebell/Dumbbell focused Today I did: Assorted mobility drills A1- KB Halos 2x3x16 kg A2- Prying Goblet Squat 2x5x16 kg A3- SFG Armbar 2x1x12kg B1- SFG Glute Bridge 3x10 B2- Hardstyle Plank 3x3x10" (10 second reps at max intensity will WRECK you. I love it ) B3- KB Goat Bag Swing 3x10x16 kg C1- Romanian Deadlift 3x10x75# C2- 1/2 Get Up 3x3 (unweighted) D1- Fixed Knee Split Squat 2x10/side (could only get 5 since I suck) D2- Farmers Carry 2x35'x55#/hand I am not only EXTREMELY hungry, but likely feeling the DOMS something fierce. This is gonna work out great. 1 Quote The Battle Chef's Log Link to comment

The Battle Chef Posted January 9, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 48 minutes ago, WhiteGhost said: What is a hardstyle plank? Maximum tension for 10-15 seconds, multiple "reps" of 10-15 seconds per set, as opposed to just going for time. So 3 sets of 3 (10sec) reps, for example, gives you 1 min 30 sec of total tension. Something I would not be able to do at the moment. My everything hurts D: 1 Quote The Battle Chef's Log Link to comment
