Holds & Carries #5
- C&P 24+24 > 10 x 1
- FW 40 +32 > 16m x 8 (128m x 107%bw)
- NB: 4.2 x 16
- HAL 7.2kg > 40 s - 40 s (80s x 9%bw)

* HAL stands for Hold at Arm's Length. I found the exercise in Arthur Saxon's book 'Physical Power'
It requires more wrist strength compared to Crucifix. Or at least the way I do crucifix :)
** NB = Nail Bend. 4.2 are the 2nd easiest nails I have, and have similar dimensions to 40D nails.

- Glute activation exercise

* Trying cleans with V instead of inverted V. DSW is getting stronger, bells fly higher, balance improves. Double 24s = 71% body weight (67.5kg) Measured skin folds last evening (3hours post-dinner) belly shrunk, currently 14mm, at 68.4kg. Might be increasing lean mass ??? Pff :)

*Gotta drop the swings for recovery.
 
Strong! #20
- DCP: 24+24 > 9 x 3

* So far I took 2 minutes rest per set, but I might have to increase this, as the volume ramps upwards.

** Recovering from these sessions become more and more of a problem. This heat is disabling us to sleep properly. I'm tracking calories, and my intake is increasing. The fat stays pretty much the same, judging by skinfolds. Morning, evening can be a 3mm difference on the belly. Which is significant. All water weight :eek:

- DCP: 24+24 > 10 x 2
- 1Hs: 24> 10 - 10 - 10 - 10 = 40T / 4m / 135 - 184 bpm
- DSW: 24+24> 5 - 5 = 10T / 2m / 135 - 170 bpm
- Glute Activation +1

* Combining single bell with double bell work isn't recommended. The technique differences are too big, nearly face-planted... again.
