My upper back has been tight for about 10 days so I am doing medium intensity workouts that I think are just enough to maintain my current strength level. Instead of the usual Mon-Swing, Weds-Press, Fri-Snatch I am doing all of my lifts in the same workout. My goal is to do a few rounds of each exercise building up to what are my typical work weights so my body does not forget what the heavy stuff feels like. I've done this workout 2x so far and plan on doing it until I stop waking up with this tightness in my shoulder blades. It is way better to stay where I am at than risk getting injured.
30 seconds work/ 30 seconds rest for 20 minutes
5 1-minute rounds of each exercise
2 hand Kettlebell swing 12kg bell, 16, 24, 24, 24
Kettlebell snatch 8 kg bell, 12, 16, 16, 16
1-hand Kettlebell swing 8 kg bell, 12, 16, 16, 16
Military Press 8 kg bell, 12, 16, 16, 16
I got a decent amount of work done with my usual 16 kg bell and at least swung the 24 kg bell for a few rounds which makes me feel good!
Doing my best to train hard and train smart.
