Some days aren't for swinging.

They're just for healing through.
In the early 90's, an "old" lower back tweak from improper lifting of hay bales and irrigation pipe while at work put me on my knees for a couple days along with eight hours of excruciating pain that laughed at the ice and heat I applied. I got over it with better lifting techniques and "exercise". Movement is what really helped since most days I am sitting in a tractor.
Too bad I didn't know then about "proper" movement and remember while working late this Tuesday afternoon. I re-tweaked my back again by lifting a farm implement unsafely. Well, I was able to move, but waited until today to add swinging because I was pain-free. Also, today I added the 16kg for a few TGUs.

Tuesday and Wednesday at noon:
10 minutes of mobility with Z-health NWU Level 1
Brettzel 3 easy breathes per side
3L&R Reps of 16kg armbars
3L&R Naked Get-ups (RPE 15 both days)
12 minutes of beginner's Eischens Yoga (RPE 17 both days)

Noon today:
Follow Along Z-health R-Phase
Brettzel 3 breathes per side
3L&R Reps of 16kg armbars
3L&R 16kg TGUs (RPE 16)
24kg swings x 20 on the minute x 8 (RPE 17)
12 minutes of beginner's Eischens Yoga (RPE 16)

One month ago..

This picture was taken of me, Doug Nepodal, Mike Krivka, and his son. Today is the one-month anniversary of the many who passed the RKC certification course at UCLA. Today I celebrated by repairing some heavy farm machinery and took a hot bath. Gonna eat a good warrior supper! Much thanks and respect to Team Nepodal, Dragondoor, John Du Cane, and Pavel. Cheers to all who gave us 'pain', us who have endured the 'pain', those who continue on the path of the ever-evolving RKC principles, and those who will in the future!
