Didn't want to hijack Ali's thread as this is a bit different question:
My TGU is a 1/2 TGU then stand, clean, press, squat.
I have the 16 kg bell down and have been working on the 24 for TGU's and swings. Can do 10X10 swings one handed now. The 1/2 TGU's I can do all 10 though I am grinding hard but no "issues".
The problem is after 2 handed clean of the 24, I can NOT get it to budge off my shoulder. I can squat no problem but even push-press or jerk it is almost as if glued. So the question is--what would be best regression?
I have started doing that part w/ the 16 again and adding in several presses/push-presses with super slow lowering back to rack (3-5 seconds maybe), working up the volume. But I could probably do some sort of two handed/assisted press with the 24 and control the lowering (i.e. yielding press), at least on single rep sets.
Which is likely to give faster, more solid progress-multiple presses w/ slow lowering with the 16 kg, or singles of only yielding press with the 24 kg
