Good end to a great training week

Yesterday's training session went well. I wanted to incorporate some medicine ball throws today. I haven't done much rotational power with my ankle injury. But I can start with half kneeling. Having the ability to transfer power in the transverse plane is very important, especially for sport and overall function. Often we develop power lineally and Laterally but neglect the rotational component.

24kg Snatch 60/20x4 96 reps - Pretty much a snatch test. I haven't snatch tested in about 3 months and only snatched 3 times since my ankle injury So I'm pretty happy with 96 reps. If I had just gotten 1 more each minute I would of had 100. Form felt real good especially the down swing.

I was going to get more ambitious with my KB chains but I was dead tired from the work out. I'm running out of steam a little towards the end. I think the change is back in AZ I usually drink a carb/protein source to sustain me through these long workouts. Since i have gotten to Maryland I've been just drinking water. I think with the humidity I'm sweating way more and losing salts and electrolytes. Ill modify that for next week and see if it makes a difference.

Ill be doing more plyos this week and maybe getting into Olympic lifts again. Depends what the ankle does. I've got two days of rest to look forward to. I might do a KB circuit monday, just to move and be outside. Squat day should be Tuesday and I think ill be doing the Metabolic Acceleration Resistance Training aspect.

Sometime this week I want to put up a video of this great self hip mobilization that AP showed me to create my space in the hip capsule.
