Shoulders are Getting Closer - 6/6/09

I had my shoulder mob. screened before the training and they are withing about 3/4" from each other. One is just in the 3 range and one is about 1/2" away.

-Rib/Roll/T-spine

-Brettzel

-Lower Body T-spine Rot

-Hip Flexor Stretch

-Arm Bar 24KGx45 sec - 2/side

-Half Kneel/Chop Med. Band x 10 left/x15 right - 2 sets

-Progressive TGU 16KGx1/1
Ridiculously tough! 1 was all I could handle on each side. I made sure to do it the Kalos Sthenos way, creating as much tension with the shoulder pack as possible and moving as smoothly as possible.

-Ankle Mob. and Arch Strength

-Explosive Step Up Pattern w/ Anterior Valgus Band Pull x30/30
Right felt much better than the left.

-Continuous Lunge 24KGx5 front/5 back - 2 sets

-Swing Variations BW/24/32KG
Went through a ton of stuff...fast and loose, toes up, hard-style all good stuff.

-Rolling Thunder 100LBSx1/1, 125LBSx1 left/fail left - 2 sets

-2 G2's bent DU w/ IMP's
Tried rev. but couldn't get it.

That the day.

If you like the TGU I would really recommend Kalos Sthenos. We got the manual in our CK-FMS manual and it's pretty detailed. I didn't think the TGU could get this deep, but it's pretty cool.

cool..i am interested in the kalos sthenos and pavel's new book too...what does the 3 and 1/2 mean when you are talking about the shoulder mobility

How you score the sh. mob. screen. 1 hand scores a 3 and the other hand is 1/2" away from scoring a 3. Basically is means I am getting more symmetrical.
