Ok, so I did it again. Turns out this might be an improving skill and not just a fluke! Another TGU with the Bulldog I like to call George.
On this day, I warmed up with Super Joints, Jumped rope for 5 minutes, did 3 sets of Overhead Squats and Pump Stretches and then settled into another set of Turkish Get Ups with an 88 pound Kettlebell.
How did it go this time? Well I filmed it, as you can see. This was stronger than the last one for a couple reasons. First, I didn't rest between sides. Last time I rested about a minute. Next time I will do the same. It's important to note that next time I will also pay closer attention to the decent on left side as the final portion was rushed. In retrospect, I think my mind got in the way. Meaning I realized what I was doing! It's important to own each movement of the Get Up.
Next time I will also drive more from the heal in the beginning. I feel like I have a solid grip and handle on the bell so I will devote a little more attention to the drive and get my arms more at a 45 degree angle in the beginning of the movement. This will help with control. I rolled up instead of drove up.
So I got a few things to work on, but am still quite proud of this achievement. I am looking forward to fully owning the Bulldog TGU.
The rest of the session included some Goblet squats, Windmills, Club Swings and 1 descending ladder of 24kg Snatches. 14/12/10/8/6.
