In the vein of Z, I've been trying to balance tension with relaxation when I train. At least I've been trying to be more aware of the tension I have when I'm training. I think my form is actually improving. Pretty cool.
Mostly a lot of Z for the last few days. I've been trying to practice the finer things I learned from R-phase. Like precision and quality of movement. On the flip side, I think maybe I've had too much Z this week. My body is getting weird on me. Why is balance so hard?
Anyway, lead a "kettlebell sprint" class yesterday at the club; a good 13 minute workout.
Todays session looked like this:
Cross-body Pistols w/ 24kg: 2/2 x 4
MP w/ 32kg: 3/3, 3/3, 3/3, 2/2
10 minutes of Jump Rope @ 140 revolutions per min.
My body was tired today, so I didn't push the presses and pistols. Oh well, that's it for now. Just trying to apply what i'm learning instead of just remembering what I learned.

I just started jumping rope as part of my active rest periods between sets of C&Js. I can now REALLY appreciate the significance of 140 reps/min for 10 minutes .. incredible!
Thanks Franklin. It's a speed rope, I suck with a leather rope! I jump rope when I know i need to do something that is good for me but I want to do it quick.
Tim,
You can definitely over stimulate your nervous system with Z drills! Try backing down on the volume or perhaps work the drills from your private session only for the next few days.
I like your last sentence about applying vs. remembering!
Keep moving!

Katie,
Remember when you warned/advised me about progression at lunch last weekend? I'm a hard learner. But, I do learn! It just hurts when I do... Thanks for your help. Hope to see you soon.

Tim,
Our conversation over lunch last week was the first thing that came to mind when I read your post. Your getting there just remember to be patient.
Great things will come via your Nervous System if you take care of and listen to it.
