Getup and Swing

  My 3rd session working the 1-arm swing and getups.  Loving this workout, can feel myself getting stronger day-to-day.  I did a couple of ugly getups on my right side using the 24 kg bell.  It's too heavy for me, I think I pulled something in my abdominal wall so I'm making sure to take it easy fri-sat-sun so I will be ready to go hard again on monday

I did 8 sets on the 2nd minute (about 45 secs work/1:15 rest) of 1-arm swings with the 24 kg bell.  Averaged 30 reps per set.  I also did 10 Getups, 1 round with no weight followed by 2 rounds with the 12 kg both sides, 2-3 rounds with the 16 kg both sides and then I finised off with 3-4 sets using the 18 kg bell right side and 16 kg bell left side.  My left shoulder is my "bad" shoulder from dislocating it many years ago.  These getups are really showing where I am at shoulder-pain-wise.  No way I can do more than 40 lbs with my left side but my right side did manage a couple of getups with the 53 lb bell.  Overall everything is feeling lighter :)
