I'm finally starting to get adjusted to explosive lifting again. It's only been 3 weeks, NBD. Yesterday's frisbee game, however, was an aerobic disaster. I was forced to take more breaks than usual. Straightaway speed on quick points was there, but if there were any more than 3 turnovers which creates extended periods of sprint/jog/sprint/jog/bounce around/look for cut/sprint I had to come out.
My Snatch tech has been feeling better too. I warm up following the Cal Strength Snatch Progression and I feel that it's been very helpful. Last Saturday's 235# effort made me feel like I'm starting to come back. Of course, I'll probably just throw it away in November when I go for some hypertrophy (everybody likes muscles).
So, if we're looking at the fitness stuff I'm working on Strength, power, flexibility (when I see an M-WOD that I like), accuracy (passing and catching in frisbee) endurance (getting better with every 45 yard sprint) and I forget what the rest are and I'm probably neglecting them, but whatever.
If I could only fight back the urge to eat 2 pounds of Chinese buffet or the delicious coconut magic squares at Wraps and Cheshire Coffee.
