9/9 swings and my first stacked getups

Found myself well rested after a busy weekend and felt strong today!

I'm in the 2nd week of a 3 week cycle - todays workout was 10 rounds of 9/9 1-arm swings with the 24 kg bell.  As usual I did the first 5 sets on the 2nd minute and the next 5 sets on-the-minute.  My conditioning is still outpacing my strength so this all felt easy.  I was doing more volume in my last 3 week cycle of swings and getups but in an effort to clean up my technique I backed off a little bit.  These swings felt easy and light!

I also did 7 rounds of getups including my first stacked getups.  My biggest bell is 24 kg and now that I can do a few rounds on each side semi-comfortably with it I figured it's time to add some weight.  The video is not very good and neither is my form but I'm happy to set another PR.
