Todays training was almost ruined due to every place aching. Mike to the rescue with some pressing ideas which kept the session going and interesting.

Strict press
5x50
3x50
3x70
1x85
2x95
fx100
...and achng forearm tendons killed the game

stiff leg deads
aborted after few sets

"viking press" strict press
6 sets in all, aiming about 8 reps with various weighs. Good assistance work.

Incline log
5x70
5x80
5x90

tricep pushdowns, set of 20 reps

anti inflams needed!

feeling battered!

Especially the grip heavy work has caught up with me, forearm tendons inflamed, and other bits and bobs aching too. The holiday comes at a good slot!

first did the 260 sword hold without a belt because someone was doubting i was using the belt to hold the sword (which is impossible, but anyway), got time of 1:07 which is comparable with the sundays time (cant remember what it was).

then onto arm over arm and drag graft with the howarth brothers.

got to heavy sled + 4 bags which was good graft already.

then crazy idea of 4 bags and mike, which was balls out max effort, finished the distance, but had nothing left and it was full effort throughout.

If its that hard at UKs, doing 8 events after that is asking a lot!

then one set of 4 sandbag race 15m each, awesome conditioning work.

upstairs for some curls & shrugs.

Back from holidays in 10 days! (suboptimal for UKs prep but who would have believed i would make it there anyway, so had this one planned before englands finals).
