Bouts.

1. B. 15-14
2. B. 10-1
3. B. 5-3
4. B. 5-2
5. B. 5-2

My first training session in a month. I fenced pretty well. I focused on controlling the distance and in general it worked well. I got caught and forced to go for 50/50 counter attacks sometimes. I need to keep options open.

My old Achilles injury flared up. I think it's time to have a look at some new shoes and the current pair seem to have lost all support.

Stretch: Wall splits.

40 day program

My routine for the next 40 days.


One arm KB press 2x5
Pistol 2x5
Pullups 2x5

Hollow rocks 15 seconds on, 15 seconds off.
Swings or snatches


This is based on Dan John's program and further inspired by this blog.


My plan is to progress slowly and work on form. I'll snatch when I feel fresh and swing when I'm either tired or just want to go all out. 


I chose hollow rocks as a alternative to ab wheel rollouts for a few reason. First and foremost was variety, I've been doing the rollouts for a few months now. Secondly the higher volume of rollouts seemed to be a minor SI joint irritant. Finally I could do with some static ab work but not planks.
