Up to date training

Happy Memorial Day!!! Hope everyone had a great day. Training over the last couple weeks has been good and bad. I recently hit a few new numbers with the 28s but one things I found out is that boy are they freaking heavy!! I'm sure I have said it before. But everyday I  train with them I seem to get more comfortable and then Coach Duffey throws a set my way and bam!! not comfortable anymore. Some days you can see where I am having a great day and others where the numbers or the set just didn't work for me. Im hitting new PRs left and right and I know I will have to work harder to get to the numbers I need to make rank. One thing I did work on when I was having a problem with Jerk was the triple extension. When the weight goes up the Triple extension needs to be more explosive to get the weight up. I found that out the second half training during the week of 5/21. More training to come more numbers to get!!! The worlds is only a four months away. I will introduce a morning run this week to see how I feel then do an afternoon kettlebell training set. Here are the past weeks of training.

Making some head way

This week I continued working with the 28s. Again they are my main focus leading up to the WKC world in October. First objective is to get a full 10 minute set in with this weight. It's no small feat, 28kg is heavy and not something to just mess with. So I was pleased with this week of training.
