If you click the picture above, you can see my settings. I chose these rather arbitrarily - I don't have the focus right now to work with a strict and set program.

Some reflections from today's first try-out:
- it was a lot harder than I guessed initially. I think the static lockout holds may have contributed. But, also grip and cardio got taxed.
- it is a lot of lockout-focus. I could do one of these sessions now and then in order to improve my lockout. I got very tired in triceps, which is one of my weak lockout-points.
- it was very fun and varied training. Different weights, different lockout times, both snatch and jerk, as well as shorter sets instead of mentally challenging long timed sets.

I just tried one session of the programme so it says nothing about how my progression and the programme's progression would concur. I should really sit down and calculate realistic goals for the generator's time frame. I will return to the generator more. If you choose to work with the generator, Kalle who invented it, wants your feedback.
