Thursday 28th May - the day of 28s
Mobility.
Practice
Getups, 28kg x 2.
Just one per side. I thought it would not be easy, as I have done almost no getup for a long time, and started again light just a few weeks ago. This is the nice surprise of the benefit of light practice on technique.
Floor pressing was not hard. It did not feel light, but I expected it to be much harder. I did not have to overtense.
Then the getup itself, with all positions well reinforced by my lighter practice, was smooth and always under control.
I am nicely surprised.
Now, I am not going to do many getups above 24kg till I finish my cycle of Strong! (soon enough), but it is very nice to see that it is still there even without going heavy.
Strong!
2KB Front squat: (2 x 28g) x 3/10
This was my last high volume "high" intensity session for this cycle. On Tuesday is the usual 2/10, so one third less volume and on Thursday next week I test RM in the front squat.
I am curious, because triples are not very hard now, I fell that they are way more controlled and solid than even the singles when I started, but I also suspect that maintaining good form after a few reps is going to be a challenge. One set of 5 reps might be very well much harder that multiple triples. We'll see.
