Ok ok...so I got a few more throws tracked in the last two weeks...
Last Sunday I throw a couple of hammers...heavy hammer for the first time in a long bit. Think it was low-mid 60's. So...goal? 68? Threw one light hammer out to just over 80'....shocked on that...just spent the time trying to fix my knees....you know, using those bendy leg things. So I was shocked when it popped out that far.
Lets see...this weekend...stone was stupid....but I got my head up. But no progress toward my stone goal that's for sure.
WOB this week...really working on the bendy leg thing again....I actually did clear 17' pretty handily too...so I stopped. Mainly because I was focusing on form...and well, it took me quite a few throws to get things lined up and moving like they should. Still hoping I can clear 17'6" by November.
Sheaf....threw sheaf without tweeking my hamstring this time...so I was able to stay with it. AGAIN, just like WOB, took me a bit to warm up into it. Chad was awesome and was watching some of my early throws....I was pulling with my left arm before I even crossed the mid point. Like hard...so thank you Chad for helping me fix that shit. I was, after all, throwing that little 10 pound bastard for distance instead of height...so annoying.
But....by the end of the session...I shot one up to 24'...um...pretty happy with that.
I do believe I had set that as my goal...so lets push that up to 25'.
Not so good news n the Achilles...I was sore after. I am trying to be super thoughtful about stopping before it hurts...and also really really trying to use my legs without guarding.
THAT is not easy.
And stone....fuck me...and the stones I throw.
I guess I need to go through these couple of posts an put these goals in a list somewhere so I can be clear about what I am working towards.
