18th September
2 hour cycle, average HR 125 (70% max), peak HR 140. Was cycling with friends so didn't track HR as I went along; 125 is a bit above MAF but hey-ho, company was good.
Did 3 sets of GTG presses with left arm. Resting right arm as have sore wrist (tendonitis).

20th September, 2021
Still resting right wrist, so worked with left handed lifts only. Did swings and Jerks, alternating, a la 015. Warmed up with standard S&S warm up.
6 sets of swings, 10 reps, 24kg, 28kg, 28, 24, 24, 24.
6 Sets Jerks, 5 reps, all with 24kg.
Started sets when HR~110 (~60%), Last few sets, HR was peaking at 130ish so last 2 sets did 8 reps swings and 4 reps Jerks to keep HR <130.
Took 20 mins.

Nearly exactly the same as yesterday, ie 20mins of alternating sets of swings and jerks with left arm. Still resting right wrist.

Although goal is Simple, don't want to do TGUs even on left as would have to extend right wrist in floor press.
Getting bored of my wrist issue.
