Notes:
No real desire to get this done this morning: it being Friday was about the only thing that got me through this. My hips are a little achy: I assume from Tang Soo Do. Spent a lot of the class getting up off the floor. Took me longer to get to depth on the squat. I'm finding that recurring theme that I'm lacking confidence in my torso strength. If I can bring that up, that will pay dividends.
Despite all that, my squat performance was stronger than last time, as was my press performance. Saw a decline on the dumbbells, but that's an effect of robbing Peter to pay Paul.
My deadlift is always better during Grey Man when I'm training DB rows and GHRs heavy. That's worth understanding and appreciating.
TSD last night was a full walkthrough of all of our one-steps. Good review, and decent activity.
Really felt like my throws turned a corner last night. I learned how to be loose and whip my body into the throw, whereas before I was stiff and trying to "shove" the bag to the sky.
Weighed 82.3kg this morning. Bodies be weird. Time to up the dose.
We're doing something called "Fowling" tonight. Combination of football and bowling. Throwing footballs at bowling pins. I'm terrible at that, and we're testing for our next belts on Sat, so I'm going to try to not get hurt while we do this.
Had my annual physical yesterday. Blood pressure was 118/78 and RHR 49. None of these truly rested. I did notice my heart rate has been up after that meal of the ribs, which tends to be the fun pattern whenever I eat a big meal.
