@hunter101 You know I’ve never really tried for rep maxes with snatch. I can snatch and dead snatch 48kg, but I’ve never snatched 32kg more than 10 reps on a single side before switching hands. I did notice that cleans seem to have very poor crossover from unilateral to bilateral. I cleaned 48kg...

@youngman4god I’ll send you a message.

@youngman4god I took my 2x32kg press from 5RM to 10RM in 4 weeks with daily training. 2/3 of days were sub maximal and 1/3 of the days were max effort. If you’re willing to try it I could write out a week for you.

@hd8e8dx I’ve been trying to work through something similar, and I have a lot of issues with unilateral pressing not making sense. The biggest problem I’ve found centers around the amount of lean required at higher loads. As the kettlebell exceeds a certain percentage of your body weight, you...

@saved_by_grace82 With the clubs and S&S I assumed he was doing those as one workout. S&S isn’t a full workout by itself.

@saved_by_grace82 Volume increase came from BJJ training, not from the workouts. So I kept workouts at 3-4x a week as I ramped from training 5x a week, to daily, to adding two a day practices. Only working out 2x per week makes it difficult to make skill gains as well as S&C gains. If OP...

@inspiringmedia Great work. I don’t think going from 10RM to 15RM in 8 weeks should be a “WTF”, but rather a reasonable expectation for a good program (unless your press is already at a very high level). If you find the Giant boring, you can get similar results with other programming.

@saved_by_grace82 Build volume slowly and it’s not a problem. I’m a black belt in BJJ and competed for years. When I trained for worlds I trained 8-9x a week and still worked out 3-4x a week. Slowly ramp training volume and you’ll be surprised what your body can handle.

@matt2000 If you want to target weak points you may want to play with something besides AMRAPs, EMOMs, and reps for time. Conventional straight sets may help you build up that strength. Other than that it looks like a lot of great conditioning work, good luck with it!

@matt2000 Why do you think the thruster is the most effective movement?
