@Tim, nice job on the muscle up. I threw up a little in my mouth reading the KB swing goblet squat couplet...

Rest Day
My hip/back/butt were really sore.
Am looking forward to getting home.

Re: The Shed 'O Pain
 

1 problem
10 push ups
10 reverse wrist curls
5 rounds

1 problem
6 ring dips
10 pronators
5 rounds

Worked on a new problem for 10 minutes or so. Kind of a high gravity night.

Thanks JT. The couplet wasn't too bad. Upping the weight would make it horrible.

"High Gravity Night", yes I understand...

Thursday October 22, 2015
Went to train with former Olympic Coach Carl Miller in Santa Fe.
Did lots of stretching and mobility.
Did some 40kg snatches and 60kg c&j.
Later in the day did my walk forward/back/sideways/karaoke PT.

Excited to be heading home to Ohio tomorrow.

20 days until the American Master's Championships

Stretching and Mobility
snatches to 145#
C&J to 205#
back squats to 185#
held an OHS for 3 minutes

Am going to do M-W-F for the next two weeks, working up to heavy weights every time, then taper until 11-13. So, gotta survive six heavy workouts, and then the championships. Game on!

18 days out from the American Master's Championship

Walked a mile over to CTown.
Stretching and Mobility
Snatches to 155 (no doubter), 165 (maybe), 176 (miss)
C&J to 195 (no doubter), 215 (miss), 200 (no doubter)

Today was a day I had to back off and realize that I can't win the title today, but I can lose it...

Walked a mile home, trying to get my head in the right space.
Am contemplating opening at 68/85 to give myself the best chance to win, and then having one poke at World Qualifying snatch, C&J, and total.
I think this is a meet I have to concentrate on lifting just enough to win, and maybe think about qualifying at some other meet that I don't want to win so dearly (e.g., Arnold, where I have zero chance of winning) or where there isn't an American title on the line.
