I don't think I'll post an entry for every single session but since this is a new direction that is evolving to address my concerns, I guess I'll have to record notes.
Prepare
GMB Knee Health routine, then I used today's GMB Mobility session in its
15-minute entirety for Prepare. Today's mobility focus was on Spine.
Practice
1
min, 10 sec. Crow Pose practice sets for a total of 3 sets.
Play
3
minutes of Bent-Arm Frogger with the minimum 1-second Crow Pose hold. I landed a 12-second hold early, then managed several 5-second holds for the rest of the set.
Push
1 minute of Bent-Arm Monkey. This was mainly a test for the suspect shoulder. It held up ok.
Kettelbell swings - This isn't directly related to Crow Pose but I want to keep up my swing practice because it's been good for my back. 2 sets of 10 2-arm swings with the 32kg. 4 sets of 1-arm swings with the 24kg. 2 sets of 2-arm swings with the 24kg, trying to go for overspeed eccentrics.
Modified Pigeon and Half-Pancake for cooldown.
Some play with the Forward Roll Setup.
Front and Back Scale practice spread through rest of afternoon.
Ponder
Basically
it's working on this blog post. There's still a dull ache in my left knee MCL when I lock out my left leg to support as I practice Front Scale/Front Scale Leg Lift with my right leg. This is the same issue that led me to halt Turkish Getup practice. After perusal of GMB's selection of Advanced Leg Exercises, I decided to replace the Scales with Back Leg Elevated Lunge and Sissy Squat. So now my path to better knee health looks like this:1. Improve Quad Strength - Back Leg Elevated Lunge and Sissy Squat
2. Hip Flexibility - GMB Mobility program
3. Unusual Movements - GMB Knee Health routine
