Wednesday 24th January
SFG practice
Getup @24kg, 1+1
Swing @24kg, 10+10
Clean @(24+24)kg, 5
Press @24kg, 5+5
Front squat @(24+24)kg, 5
Snatch, EMOM, alternating hands: 16 reps x 6 sets.
Stopped at 6 sets because of quality drop in the last few reps. The goal is not so much to do as many reps as possible, as it is do do as many good reps as possible. The quality drop might not be visible from external view, but I definitely felt it.
Next week, I might stay at 16 or go to 18, depending on how I feel.
Thursday 25th January
SFG practice
(Getup @28kg, 1+1, Clean @(24+24)kg, 5)
Swing @24kg, 10+10
(Getup @32kg, 1+1, Clean @(28+28)kg, 5)
Press @24kg, 4+4
(Getup @28kg, 1+1, Clean @(24+24)kg, 5)
Front squat @(28+28)kg, 5
(Getup @28kg, 1+1, Clean @(24+24)kg, 5)
Snatch @24, 5+5
(Getup @28kg, 1+1, Clean @(24+24)kg, 5)
Swing, EMOM: 28kg x 10, 10, 32kg x 10, 10, 40kg x 9, 9, 32kg x 10, 10, 40kg x 9, 9, 32kg x 10, 10, 10, 10
Feeling good. Swings at 40kg are getting better, despite the superthick handle.
Friday 26th January
Deadlift: 110kg x 4, 120kg x 3, 4, 5, 140 x 1
DOH until 140kg. I tried DOH at 140kg, but felt the grip giving up when I was just above knees. I played safe, let the bar go down, switched grip and lifted it easily.
But at the end, I felt than my left hip bothered me a little. It has happened before and not a good sign. I did not try the two remaining sets (planned 120 x 4, 140 x 1), and avoided the barbell presses, even if they were light, and finished the session with some relaxing stretches and mobility work.
No swings today.
I felt minor pain the rest of the day. It was a good call not to push.
Some meditation "muscle scan" back home and in the evening.
Saturday 27th January
Getting better. I can move well and just feel some minor inconfort in some movements, more soreness than pain. No swings yet. If things are still improving tomorrow, I will do light my Friday light presses and light swings.
I will stop deadlift for a while. Heavy swings will maintain it, and it seems that it is too much for my lower back with all the swings and snatches.
