MVO2 Session 9

15:15 MVO2 protocol:
16kg x 8 reps x 46 sets
RPE (Rate of Perceived Exertion) = 18

Notes:
1. I detected a power loss on the 22nd set. I think this is due to all factors of the following:
a. positive (forward lock) hip drive.
b. negative (butt-punch) hip drive.
c. pulling with the lats to force the kettlebell down faster than gravity.
2. I wanted to quit after the 36th set.
3. Double breathing began spontaneously around the 36th set and flowed much easier on the left side than the right.
4. Counting reps while sporadically breathing can be difficult but is solved by waiting for the beep of the GymBoss timer.
