The weather was pretty good today, 83°F but feels like 88°F and with a good breeze. Warm up felt good. Nothing new. Took my time again, really tried to sit in the squat as low as I can w/o pinging my knee, but still working to open my hips. Also really worked to lift hips and stretch out the hip flexors. Warm up time was 15:30.
Swings felt easy. About ready to go up to 24kg, but I'll put in my full week of 10 sets next week before I do. Guess I'll have to bite the bullet and order a 28kg and a 32kg soon. Wonder if I should skip the 28 and just order a pair of 32s? Or be conservative and order a pair of 28s? Get ups feel easy w/ the 16kg. Again, I'll wait until I've got a full week at the recommended set/rep combination. Total kettlebell time 17:00.
Cooled down with the same brief routine. When I have my right leg forward my left hip, the troublesome one, really limits my position. All I can do is keep working it. And again my hamstrings are really tight and also my groin muscles. I just hope daily practice of will cause an improvement in all these areas.
