11/10/23 - A Mismatched Implement Sig Klein Challenge Attempt Was Fun :

11/10/23
Today I attempted a mismatched bell Sig Klein challenge with my 32kg kettlebell and 75lb dumbbell.

I did not get the full 12 reps.
I got nine.

Soon.
Soon I’ll hit the full challenge (even extra reps past 12) with these bells…on camera.

(man did the camera not focus properly – in the part I edited out it focused on the hair of my shin while I was standing there close to the running camera)

My “overhead press every day” would rightly turn more towards every rep style.

That’ll give me more strength, side effect muscle me up more.

I was thinking see saw press today on camera (did so off camera), thought it’d be tomorrow’s, but then – amrap hang clean and press every rep style – 135lbs maybe against the clock… say 3:00.

That makes more sense…
Could I hang clean and press the grace wod in three minutes?

…..

Right before lifting was a small meal ; a peanut butter and honey sandwich, fritos scoops dipped in guacamole, and some milk.

Milk consumption is getting close to a gallon a day, and nine eggs or more daily is a pretty fast pace through a couple 18ct packages.

…..

My second meal is ten fried eggs.

Nine sausage links with it, a tall glass of milk, the whoopie pie alongside it completely killing any semblance of keto or carnivore lol.

It doesn’t matter, in the mirror I feel I’m getting slightly leaner as the press every day continues, the temperatures are dropping which means the time outside is more metabolically demanding, and frankly…

With low temperatures, while rather underdressed for the weather, and going close to all out on these on camera sets (even if they’re the only set that day) it IS metabolically demanding.

…..

Nighttime :

30°f, barefoot, though otherwise dressed for winter – I step outside and basically do burpee form work, pausing on the ground, exploding off the ground with a hard (imagine a 405+, 500lb bench worthy) push, and jumping my feet to where my hands had been on the ground a moment prior.

Filling in the rests with 4ct jumping jacks, it’s hard to call it a conditioning session – maybe 20 one pump burpees as described, maybe 30 4ct jumping jacks, really just a few minutes of movement (about eight), more playful than militant – just outside to enjoy life, working on my mindset.

Ecstatic to see that daily posting IS growing the channel.

From 50 to 60 (61) subscribers in nine, ten days. That’s more growth than in the first year and a half.

…..

As the burpees were done the frozen pizza is in the oven.

I ate the entire thing.
Pizza is the ultimate big eating food choice.

…..

The world is in our mind.

Most important giving yourself purpose.

•Today I press.
•Today I film myself pressing.

It’s giving me something, while it’s looking to the how’s, the where’s as to making the gym truly my life.

Grow this to monetized, and I could train home based for a living, make my entire life revolve around training.

Dream to reality…

…..

Tomorrow?
After the day’s press video, no joke ; I think I’ll try my hand at baking cookies. At 6 for $6 from the store, I’d rather just buy the ingredients and have a few dozen for like $10.

Basically I can’t have enough meat, pizza, milk, and cookies right now.
