Back into it after a lovely holiday, and some time for the body to do something else.
Easing back into things this week.
Today did a Kettle Bell Ladder, I heard about these from Dan John, and thought it would be a good intro back to lifting this week.
The warm-up was as usual
Functional Neurology Exercises
Rolls,
Contralateral Work,
and
Goblet squat + curls.
The sessions went like this
Single arm KB clean x 1 + Single Arm KB Front Squat x 1
I repeated this each time however, added one rep for each set so it looked like this
1 + 1
2 + 2
3 + 3
4 + 4
5 + 5
all with the 20kg KB
did this non-stop so HR got up a little as well
At the end of this did the same sort of ladder but with a
Half kneeling Press @20kg and TRX Inverted Row
Finished with a waiter infinity walk and 2 x 5 ab rollers.
What's the Infinity walk?
I heard about these quite a while ago, and they are a movement for helping the left-side and right-side communication in the brain, balance, and learning.
They were detailed by a lady called Deborah Sunbeck PhD to help improve learning, and are explained more in detail in her book "Infinity Walk"
Today I used a waiter's walk with the 16kg KB overhead while performing them to challenge my shoulder stability, my left shoulder has been a little niggly for some reason and am getting on to making sure it is taken care of.
