Today was Military Presses only. I was supposed to do Front Squats but did not feel up to it, will bang em out tomorrow.
I got a personal record today in the press. My previous best is 5 sets of 5 with the 18 kg bells. Today I did 2 sets of 5 with the 18.62 kg bells and 3 sets with the 18 kg bells. What the fuck is a 18.62 kg kettlebell? It's an 18 kg bell with a 1.5 lb plate taped to one side. It can be expensive buying pairs of heavy kettlebells, a pair of new 45 lb bells retails for about $150. I'm experimenting with ways of sticking weight onto these bells so I dont have to buy a new pair.
Feeling good. Some tight spots in my upper back which I am going to be very mindful of and start using the heating pad on every night.
edit: here's some 40 lb bells with a 2.5 lb weight attached by a chain. Of course it messes with the stability of the bell but it's just too good of an idea to pass up!
