2 handed with 44lber 5x15,
1 arm with the 35lber 4x15/15

push press w/35lber 3x5/5
one arm rows w/44lber 3x5/5
one arm dl w/44lber 3x5/5

went to a kb class tonight in CT.. won't be going back though, as the RKC wants me to pay 60 dollars to continue to attend and not something I am interested in doing especially since this RKC was in my certification group...
TGU w/26lber 1x3lr 1x1l, 1x2r (dropped it twice on the left) . but a PR-- first time doing 4 reps with the 26lber Left and 5 reps with 26lber on the right.
alternating rows with 2 35lbers 1 minute interval (was told I was doing this wrong-.I think...
sots press (hadn't done this before..uses a 16lber) 2x5lr and we had to stand up with the bell pressed overhead..form was off..need to review this one.
2 hand swing tried the 53lber. 2x15 PR for me...(went pretty good, the 35lber is going to go up real easy now
decksquat thing..did 2 minutes of burpees instead..deck squats have been a problem since my achilles injury
front squats with 35lber 2x5
will do planned workout 2 tomorrow...and ordered my 53lber kb..should be here by end of next week.

JMO, but as a courtesy of having the same cert and being in the same class to boot! An introduction to everyone wouldn't be uncalled for either, imo.. Are they teaching any class in that cert class to go with the cert?

Thanks John.This person just doesn't see it that way. I worked very hard to earn my certification and am proud of the accomplishment. Those that taught me and helped me train for it respect that and are proud as well! that's what truly matters IMO.

This week got a little crazy..I headed to NYC twice this week and left me little time for my workouts and OT with my jobs....no excuses...
Nov 11 --trip to NYC #2. Mahler-Thomas seminar...assistant instructor to Mike and Dylan.
Great seminar... demoed.. windmill w/26lber, snatch w/35lber. clean and press with 35lber, front squat with 2 26lbers, swings with 35lber, static hold with 53lber (2 hands to clean position) 2 hand swings w/53lber 2x10. bent over rows with 53lber...needs some adjustment.
full body attack...after seminar..got some feedback..to tighen up and not jump back so far...so I don't have to reach to clean the 2 35lber 3 times
and Deadlift version with 2 53lbers.. this was easier...than the 2 35lbers...double swings w/2 53lbers 1x3...got to almost waist level..will work on that as well.
Monday..back to workouts!
