TGU - 5 minutes - 40kg

Tried some of the grinds from RTK
1x1,2,3 with 24kgs
1x1 with 32kgs

The double snatch with 24kgs are easy, the double 32kgs are a different story. i can do them but they are ugly. I will need to work on them before tackling the RTK. 

So it looks like Saturday's session will be day one of ROP with the 40kg. I hope this time remains the same as the times with the 20kg, 24kg and 32kg. I completed every session with 45 minutes.The difference this time around is that i actually have a KB bigger than i am pressing, so swings will be with the 48kg. Good times ahead.  I will Enjoy the Pain!

Intu-Flow - Intermediate level

DBL LCCJ - 3x2,4,6 24kgs

I thought I'd give the LCCJ ladders from RTK a shot. Overall the workout was great. I almost reverted a softer style and resting in the rack. I focused and rested in the OH position as described in the book. This made the sets a little harder. I really liked it. I am sure the rungs of 8 & 10 will be really challenging, not to mention the move up to 32kgs. I am really starting to like the RTK plan.

I am down to two choices for my next cycle. I will either do RTK or I will do ROP with my Bulldog. I am leaning to ROP because one of my goals is to get 5/5 40kg and 1/1 with the 48kg by end of year.
