The goal was to do 200 1-arm swings with the 24 kg bell as well as banging out 5 getups with the 24 kg bell on both arms. Today I did 1-arm swings for 10 rounds of 10/10. First 5 rounds I did on the 2nd minute and the next 5 rounds I did on-the-minute. Felt moderately easy and I really got my heartrate up in the last 5 sets. The plan for the next 3-4 weeks is to add in some high-pulls so I can start working a larger range of motion. I think I will stick with my goal of 200 swings/hi-pulls with the 24 kg bell and continue to increase the weights I use for getups.
I also did 5 rounds of getups, not including the 12 kg and 16 kg rounds which are my current warmup weights. I did 3 rounds both sides with the 24 kg bell, the final 2 rounds I did a stacked getup with the 24+8 on my right side and 18+8 on my left side. A solid 70 lb getup for another PR :) There are plenty of 'little' guys out there doing getups with huge weights but I'm not inclined to compare myself to other people. A year ago my shoulders were so damaged from a lifetime of training that I thought I would never put anything heavy overhead again. Stabilizing and moving around with 70 lbs locked overhead felt fucking awesome :)
