Band KB swings... gnarly. I'm guessing there's some pretty intense loading of the hamstrings on those?

Yes and you have to have plenty of hip snap otherwise the bell won't even make it halfway up. I like them keeping them on the lower rep range otherwise I'd just end up halfassing anything over 15.

Nice. Sounds like it makes the swing a power movement of sorts.
One other question, where do you attach the band both on the bell and on the floor?

There's an article in a recent Milo edition by Pavel on this. The intent is to load things up to drive explosive strength. Pavel claims significant increases in vert. jump max using this style (overspeed swings/snatches).

*IF 15.5 hours*
bw = 179
1. Warmup
ECWU #2
jump rope - 100 singles, 50L/R, 20 alternating
2. Strength
deadlift - 45 x 8, 95 x 5, 145 x 3, 195 x 1, 255 x 3, 295 x 3, 325 x 3, 145 x 10, 145 x 10, 145 x 10

Notes:
-Wendler's 5/3/1 program Day 1, week 2
-deadlift - Like Wendler says in the book, I got my 3 which earned me the right to progress to the next mark, I'm not sure why I couldn't go more reps today. A very abbreviated session also.

35 minute walk with Laurie and Connor after 2 hours at the pool.

Nice 3 I would have liked to made my presses today. But alas no such luck.

*14 hour fast*
2 hours at the pool with Connor and Laurie then a 30 minute walk afterwards. I was able to hold my breath for 1:15 this afternoon, I think I'm going to make a goal of 1:30 by the end of summer!
