Training lately has really been uninteresting. But very beneficial. I think there's a lesson hidden there.
Saturday I deadlifted light. 375 x 5 x 2
Long Cycled: 2x24kgs for one 4:00 set
5 rounds:
48kg Swing x10
Burpee x 10
Monday:
Deadlift:
385 x 5 x 1
405 x 4 x 2
Ring Muscle Up: 8,5,5,5
Plate Curl: 25lbs + 1 chain for 2/1, 1/1
Training is very specific--will do some long cycle today (tuesday). Not at all sore from deadlifting which is good.

Been training a lot of fighting this week so training has been mostly more of the same...
Deadlift
Ring Muscle ups (These build a very solid muay thai clinch!)
A good 50% of my training right now is corrective work.
More deadlifting to come today.
Yesterday I also did a few sets of long cycle.
