SUN: REST

SUMMARY: Solid week of training. I signed up for a SFG I certification in end Sep (if it happens) and so it’s time to work on some KB techniques. I am pretty confident I can do everything except the Snatch test for now. My left side snatch is weak due to my shoulder issue - so 2 prong approach, which is to continue to work on shoulder function, and make my right side incredible.

ACC: 1min Pushup (48, rpe 9)

WED: BJJ + Snatch
SKILL: 10 x 5/5 KB Snatch 20kg. Easy today! I am getting better at this.
BJJ: 8 x 5 min rolls with a small group. We have sworn BJJ fidelity for this period, ie no mixing with others.

THU: REST

FRI: FB
STR: FSQ 3x5 76.3kg. Easy, add weight.
SKILL: TGU 5 x1/1 28kg. Still pretty tiring.
MVT: Pullup variations 6/4/6/4. Ok definitely drop chinups for now.

SKILL: KB Snatch 25/25 24kg. Felt pretty good.

SUN: REST

SUMMARY: Great week of training. E seems to have improved, appears to be a simple tweak of "sleeping better". KB Snatches feel much better as well, getting the hang of it - from an exercise that I feared and hated, I think the KB snatch is now one of my favourite exercises as I feel much more powerful doing this compared to swings.

1h KBP 1x1/2/3/4/5 24kg. Easy.
2KB Clean 2x5 20+24kg. Easy.
1h SW 1x 10/10 28kg. Easier
Walking Lunge bwt 4x20. Still a pain in the butt
1h KB Row 1x 8/8 28kg Easy.
Shoulder Rehab Work *

TUE: FB + E
Pullups 1 x 8. Easy. Had 10-11 in me at least.
Jump Squats BWT 3x10 *
Pushups 1min max (52, rpe9+)
1h Pushup 1 x 5/5. Easy today.
Pistols 1 x 6/6. Easy today.
2.4k timetrial 10:44. Year best so far. This was a 9.9 on effort scale, felt crap after.

WED: FB + BJJ
BJJ 3 rolls gi, 3 rolls nogi. Was quite bashed by the end.
Snatch 12 x 5 EMOM 24kg. Felt very good today.

THU: REST

FRI: FB
FS 1x3 81.3kg. Easy
TGU 1x1/1 28kg. No prob.
Pullup Variations 2 x 5. Good.
Situps 1min max (44). Still no improvements.

SAT: FB + E.
Snatch 35/35 24kg EMOM. On the v last set on the left tore a callus. F)$k.
1h KB PP 1x5L/6R 32kg. L = rpe9, R = rpe8.
8k MAF run. 54:11. 5k 32:58. So-so run today.

SUN: REST

SUMMARY:
Was a deload week so I cut the volume for most exercises except for snatches and running.

Positives: KB Snatch skill definitely better. The 24kg is THE bell. 2.4km time trial also a half decent 10:44. Frankly if that’s the best time this year it is acceptable. That said... I have 10:30 in my sights, and a minimum of 2 more speed sessions to try to hit it.

Negatives: KB Snatch. Well turns out that it shreds hands. I swear I tore the callus on my left hand on the very last rep of the workout (which was also the last workout of the week). ()$&@@#%*. Looks like I will have an unplanned break off snatches next week.

TGU 1x1/1 28kg. Good! The HTGU serves as warmup.
KB SL RDL 2x5/5 32kg. Good.

SAT: E
BB FS 1x5 86.3kg. Felt rpe 8 today.
10k MAF Run 1:03:39. Best MAF 10k this year. Weather was cool and it helped.
Remarks: Right wrist sprained and it hurts pretty bad. I woke up this way so either I fell off the bed last night OR my wife wristlocked me for snoring?

SUN: REST

SUMMARY:
Worked around the callus tear in my left hand for the week, so dropped snatches and it seems in ok shape to snatch again next week. Unfortunately my right wrist is sprained SOMEHOW and that means I have to work around not being able to use the right side - I imagine exercises like TGUs on both sides, right sided presses/snatch and barbell front squats are off the menu for next week.

SUMMARY:
Right wrist/thumb is a bit screwy. De Quervain’s syndrome or something like that, according to my googling. Guess I just need to rest it.

Good things: 1) 2.4k Timetrial #3 was best of the year so far at 10:40. There is a minimum of 1 more for the block. 2) New all time 5RM best for Front Squat with a 5x91.3kg. It was at rpe 8 too so got a chance to do even better, and this is not even the focus of the block.
