7 minute set went well. Could have kept going. 4 minute set was slower. Really trying to focus on breathing, especially exhaling during the first dip. Also trying to focus on a cue Catherine Imes mentions in her latest post on the AKC Blog - heel on the floor and heel of the hand. I am trying to forcefully lockout my arm at the same time my heel is striking the floor for the second dip. When I pull it off, I have a very crisp lockout.

Now that you have been doing GS for awhile, I'm interested to see what it has done for your body comp, how you feel, etc.
Nate,
I don't have much to compare with. I started really loosing weight last summer training for the RKC. Since switching to exclusively GS training my weight continued to drop. I still think I am in the best cardiovascular shape I have been in for a long time. I have noticed much less aches and pains working the long sets compared to heavy weight low rep schemes, especially in my shoulders. I have probably lost some mass in my legs and butt, but have gained in my shoulders/lats. Overall, I feel great. This probably has less to do with GS vs hardstyle and more to do with exercising on a regular basis.
Matt
