Will have to reevaluate daily lower body work. Strength and soreness wise, im totally fine. Injury wise, it's still a problem.
This weekend was filled with a few questions on what im doing. Saw myself in the mirror post coitus and thought, she is in wayyyyyy better shape than me. Immediately my brain went to thoughts of heading back to naturally enhanced (alpha destiny program) or medium volume oly lifting. Both options are fun, but they fuck up the rhythm ive got going, and they came with their own weaknesses. Also...i really dig the shoulder hypertrophy and lack of trap impingement from daily exercise. The missing key (besides a better diet, this is still #1) is conditioning work.
The long long ago, two thousand and fifteeeeeeeeeeeeeen (waynes world fx).
I was in stellar shape. The reason was a little bit of everything, but the best additive were kettlebell swings. Comparing me from an 80s pub crawl and dragoncon 2 months later...i looked leaner, was stronger, felt faster, moved better, got less injured, and (most importantly) workouts were easier with the largee gas tank conditioning grants.
Kettlebell swings take anywhere from 4 to 8 minutes, and honestly i could do them every day without eating into recovery.
Im kind of dying after 4 rounds post lift. Im going to keep the same weight and rounds for longer (usually i increase 1 or the other every time i lift) for a bit until its easy.
Workout
Ohp 165x1, 170xfail
--the strength is there for 170, but i approached it all wrong. Didnt rest enough between sets, didnt get aggressive, didnt get tight. Tomorrow im going to murder it.
Kettlebell swing
