**POST WORKOUT SHAKE**

**CONDITIONING**


15 rounds in 1 minutes of


* 1 devil press w/24kg bells

* 1 KB swing w/40kg bell (add a swing each round)


Notes: 


* Before I forget, want to log that I’m using 1 min rest between all sets on this program.  I don’t intend to log that again, so I’ll get that down now.


* This is the weight I tore my hamstring on last run, so this is a fantastic milestone.  In turn, I wrapped it up at 20.  I could have pushed for another rep, but I could also tell I was letting technique drift, and that’s what got me last time.  And it’s clear I definitely took it “far enough” to get a training response here.  And given my appetite is already through the roof, this is working exactly as needed.  It’s funny how mundane “just 20” can feel now after working in the 30s.


* Pressing is feeling awesome.  Pulling is getting there.  I can work through a good amount of pain, and it seems to be flushing the injury site, because the bruising on the tricep is getting insane. I might actually snag a photo of this, because it’s more apparent than the lat.


* Those gorilla rows were amazing.  Got the idea from a buddy of mine who is into KB sport. I can definitely see pushing these to stupid high reps.


* I legit have trouble sleeping because I’m excited to train.  That’s a great place to be in.  Do I still hate exercise?  Absolutely.  Do I still love what it does to me?  Absolutely!


* Supposed to be sparring night for Tang Soo Do tonight.  Usually a good workout.  Took the day off work tomorrow to get some “to dos” knocked out, so I’ll have a touch of leisure.


PM WORKOUT was 40 burpees over bar.  Those are really awful the day you do Super Squats.
