My back was troubling me the day before this and it was made worse by trying to be too explosive coming up from RDL, so it was fast on the way up but not max intent.
The week as a whole was tougher on my body than I expected. It’s the “Spring” phase so I thought it would feel like a 4 week taper where I would go through each session feeling light on my feet and more explosive. I’m quite achey day to day which could be down to the hard surface I jump on because it’s joints more than muscles. I’m stepping up my rehab and taking cold showers a few hours after the hard sessions.
Here’s the “hurdle” jumps from 6th May, I have to use a cone because I don’t have real hurdles.
