Work sets

Long Cycle (Clean & Jerk)
12kg’s x a few, just to get the groove back.
20kg’s x 10 min at a relaxed pace

It’s been a while since I’ve worked the long cycle with 2 bells, so this was a nice easy reintroduction to it. Very enjoyable, wish I’d recorded it so I could count the reps, even though I wasn’t pushing the pace it’d be nice to know what I got.

I finished off with:
Pistol Squat / Pull Up, 2 ladders of (1,2,3)
Shield Casts x 10 l/r with the 12kg club

1 min sledgehammer slam (switch every rep)

The “Sincere”
Perform Double Snatch immediately followed by Double Jerk. Do your set then rest while your partner does his, then jump back in.
Do 10 of each, then 8,6,4,2. I used the 28’s and regretted every minute of it!

1 Arm Overhead Squat:
1 min x 24, 2 min x 16 left
1 min x 24, 2 min x 16 left
