Sometimes life gets in the way of our training - let's say for example a major hurricane comes through your town and knocks out the electrical power for 30,000 people and you really don't want to stand in line to take a shower down at Planet Fitness. Or maybe the Utilikilt you ordered from ThinkGeek didn't come in yet, and you really had your heart set on doing swings in a kilt. Regardless - let's say it's been a while and you need to get started again - lets keep it as simple as possible - 200 swings per day (or combo swings and dead lifts) for the next 2 weeks - keep the number at 200 - just vary the weight - if you feel strong use a heavy bell and 2 hands - or a lighter bell and 1 hand. If you don't feel strong use a light bell 2 hands - focus on your form - finish each session with a grease the grove style tgu - break down each movement of the tgu and perform it 3x on each side - with or without weight.
200 swings per day (plus tgu) for 2 weeks - be creative - use your gym boss - set it for 15/15, 20/10, or even 10/20 for heavy days (training/active recovery) throw in some power breaths during AR or hops, or a short walk. Just because you got a little soft that doesn't make you a bad person - keep it simple
