Jan. 9- 183 lb.  Chin ups: 7,6,5,4,4 = 26.  Just chin ups today.  Hands are really taking a beating from high rep kettlebell work, so took a day off.

Jan. 8- 184.5 lb.  Time for some corrective dieting.  Swings and jerks make me hungry, but apparently I'm eating too much.  Chins, 7,6,5,4,3 = 25.  Tested my 32k press, and got 3 reps per arm.  Did swings a little differently today.  1 set of 10 two hand cleans @ 49k.  Then did 12 sets of 1m of "black cleans" with 2x24k: 2 swings followed by 1 clean, resting in the rack.  Did them every 15 seconds, for 12 pulls per minute.  Counting this as 154 swings, since the clean is simply a swing with a catch on top.  Same load, but slightly different movement pattern.  More applicable to long cycle than hardstyle swings, and using two bells forces me to work in a wide stance.

Jan.7- 184 lb.  Jerk, 2x24k: 1m @ 6rpm to warm up, then 7m @ 6rpm = 42 reps.  This is a new PR for time and reps at this weight.  2m @ 6rpm, then 4 sets of :50 @ 12 rpm (10 reps).  Total jerks today: 100.  Swings, 49: 50 in 5m.  Ended with 100 sissy dips for triceps endurance.

Jan. 6- 183 lb.  Chin ups: 6,6,5,4,3 = 24.  Worked on long cycle today.  2x24k: 1m for warm up at 6rpm.  2m @ 8rpm.  1m @ 6rpm.   28 clean and jerks.  Did a few shorts sets of heavy jerks: 2x32k: 5, 2.  2x28k: 5,5.  Total jerks: 45.

Jan. 5- 183 lb.  Chin ups: 6,5,5,4,3 = 23.  Jerks, 2x24k: 10 rep warm up, 6 reps on the minute for 15 minutes = 100 reps. Rest 5m, then swings, 49k: 10 per minute (5 on the :00 and :30) for 10m = 100 swings.  Average HR: 180.  About 200 calories burned on swings alone.

Jan. 4- 182 lb. Chin ups: 6,5,4,4,3 = 22. Jerks, 2x24k: 1m @ 5rpm warm up.  4.5m @ 5 rpm = 22 reps.  5 reps on the minute for 15 minutes = 75 reps.  Total jerks: 102.  Swings, 49k: 5 sets of 20 over a period of about three hours.  No rush, just getting my reps in, adjusting to the workload. 100 swings.

Jan. 3- 182 lb. Surprisingly, not sore from yesterday's session. Chin ups: 6,5,4,3,3 = 21.  Jerk, 2x24k: 10 sets of 10, with several minutes rest between sets.  100 jerks total.  Swings, 49k: 10 sets of 10, resting until heart rate comes down between sets.  No hurry.  I don't have much endurance today, so I'm doing short sets and getting my volume in.  100 swings.

Jan. 2- 182.5 lb.  Chin ups: 6,5,4,3,2 = 20.  Jerk, 2x24k: 1m @ 6 rpm for warm up; 6:30 @ 6rpm for the first 6 minutes, then a sprint of 5 reps in :30 for a set of 41, breaking my previous PR of 40.  Rested two minutes, then 2 sets of 1m @ 12 rpm, 1m rest.  Total jerks: 71.  Rested 3m, then swings, 49k: 60 swings in 5m (6 on the :00 and :30).  The swings were tough after the jerks.  Roman chair: 10 reps forward and backward, nice and slow.  Came back later and did 4 sets of 10 swings with 49k, bringing today's total to 100.

Jan. 1- 183 lb.  Jerk, 2x24k: 1m @ 6rpm to warm up, then 5m @ 6rpm = 36 reps.  Not much of a challenge for legs or cardio, but quite a burn in the triceps, not like long cycle.  As they catch up, the volume should increase quickly.  Swings, 49k: 50 in 5m (5 on the :00 and :30).  Overall, a pretty easy day.  Nice to deload a little after lots of long cycle sets the last two months.
