I am back home and into normal training as of today. I also return top work after 5 weeks off.
I really enjoy the movement practice as a warmup and it goes well with my TB work.

Pistol were without support today and I struggled on the right side each time for the first rep. On the last set I raised my heel by an inch and was able to knock out 3 perfect reps. I guess I need some achilles/ calf flexibility work on that side. I will progress these with some lighter weights from next week week if I don't deload.

Ring pushups I will probably drop to 5 reps and add some weight, starting at 5 kg and progressing to 15kg sounds like a plan.
Weighted pullups will be be a 10 kg, 20 kg, 30 kg progression i reckon.

Yesterday was my first day back at work and straight away I got my first hour of overtime haha. I also found out I am rolling into nightshift so I need to take my recovery seriously this week. I kept things simple today and just covered the bare minimum and got some movement in. I have 1 more strength session to get in this week and I will also do a run sometime to tick that conditioning box. If I recover well, I will get a session or two of BJJ in somewhere.

My movement practice was hard co ordination wise but not physically hard. I had to actively think to maintain the correct hand psotion and movement. I am happy it is finally getting harder. My hips were extremely mobile during the warmup so having success there.

I wore my weightlifting shoes and the small heel rise was more than enough to allow me to do perfect pistols on each side. I will look at adding weight next and improving calf mobility to allow me to pistol squat barefooted.

The other exercises were just ticking boxes and training in that easy zone that allows me to plug away at some easy work.

Recovery is my biggest struggle right nopw and I barely slept last night. This is something I need to continue to improve on along with nutrition.

Haha I will re read this tomorrow and amend the terrible writing if I can be bothered.

Rest day from elements.

Day 1 Tacfit 26
Qual Mobility


I plan to keep my fighter sessions going and add it in with some another conditioning program I have purchased in the past. At the moment I am good plugging away with fighter, but I am having a hard time getting any conditioning work in. I just need some direction and something quick to tick that box while I work on a few niggles. Once I fix these issues I plan to get a base build completed in the coming months. I will keep logging here as I prefer logging my workouts online these days and I may aswell keep it all in one place.

I decided to wait and just stick to my mobility and TB fighter until I make it through this current program. I will then reset and make conditioning my focus. I need to fix a couple niggly injuries and then I might have to do a base build.

I decided to just get this session done so I had nothing else to worry about this week besides my movement work. I am on night-shift right now so recovery is non existent and I am averaging 5 hrs sleep on a good night. I think I will finish off this fighter block and then change my exercises up a bit. I am still tossing up doing a basebuild soon as my heart rate has hit the low 60s and it usually stays in the low 50s.
