July 7, 2010 CC and Active Recovery

CC sets and reps

Incline pushups 3x40

Knee tucks 3x40


While I'm meeting the progression standard, the sets still aren't feeling as easy as I'd like. I'll stay here a bit longer and will probably start working in a few GTG sets throughout the week.

I also started testing out my active recovery routine. 20 seconds of dynamic crescent swings coupled with 40 seconds of 2 hand swings using a 12 kg bell, performed 3 times with a 1 minute break in between sets. This felt quite good. I managed 12 crescent swings each set, which is where I'd like to be for my eventual goal of 3x10.
