Mil Presses are feeling so much stronger it’s unbelievable. Pressing the 28 kg. is easy. Did I just say that? Well it is. Zerchers were strong and the suitcase deadlifts were easy as well. Next time I’ll hit reps on them.

Two handed kettlebell swings
32 kg.
20x20
400 swings
i took some pretty long breaks between sets as my goal here is just to maintain my cardio and build heavy volume. Long for me is about 45 seconds between sets.
On another note I’ve started using a few supplements. Those that know me and follow my training know I don’t really use supplements aside from some whey protein. I’ve picked three pretty basic ones and am going to use them consistently for the next few months and see what happens.
I’m a big believer that before you go using supplements you should have your training locked in and have made substantial progress, which I believe I have. Now I’m at the point where I’m just looking for an extra edge.
I’m using Muscle Milk by Cytosport, Fast Twitch (pre-workout) by Cytosport, and a Beta-Alinine supplement. I’ve been using the MM and FT for about two weeks now and I have seen a difference. I’m using the BA due to something I read from MC here, and my own research. MC is displaying some incredible strength pressing the 20 kg. bell at a very light bodyweight, and she’s very intelligent and puts a log of thought into her posts so if she says it might be good, I’ll give it a shot.
