TKD Preparation

Yesterday morning - regular kettlebell class. Did joint mobility, some swings, abs. Total time 1 hr. In the afternoon I worked with David on Tae Kwon Do for 1-1/2 hours at the dojang. Knee felt great even during jumping kicks! Wow.

This morning, full R-Phase with some kicks. Tae Kwon Do test tomorrow evening.
Total workout time this morning 1 hour. Knee still feels pretty good. Virtually no swelling.

allergies

Long time no post ....

Allergies then sinus infection. Cool....

I kept doing the full body Z-Health R-Phase drills nearly everyday. Also, now wearing contacts everyday so vision in both eyes is the same. Feel some big improvements in overall well-being as well as balance. Although, reading is tough. But, I think my vision is improving day by day.

Yesterday was first real workout with class. Mostly up & downs and the 360 hill swing routine with the 20 kg.

Today did some snatch ladders, 20kg + 24kg + 28kg + 32kg along with some pullups. Plus full-body R-Phase.

Pulling Higher

This morning did full-body R-Phase exercises. Intermixed with this were a couple of pistols, FMS knee rehab, and more work on pull-up technique. Improved visualization added a couple of inches to the height of the pullup. Now I can often perform a pullup so the bar is a couple of inches below the clavicle.

When I can start achieving 3 to 5 reps with this quality, I will start adding weight.

Evening, videotaped the 3rd workout for the Level 1 Workouts DVD.

Total time: 2.5 hrs
