@khohanguc It is not meant to be a standalone program. It's quite literally gpp work for athletes and is stated in the book. You are doing great - keep pursuing the path you've set up. Maybe even start trying out clean and press and doubles

@danield93 Seems fine but I'd build up to all the first. Maybe half or even a quarter of everything you're listinghere & just randomly go a bit closer to 100% of the workout you're writing here when you're feeling good. A day you're not feeling good is 30% of the work or even a rest day for...

@sujiro Doubles are by far the best way to spend your time with kettlebells. Singles are a detour - get to doubles ASAP

@jesuslover57 Nifty guide on how to make a cheap & effective plate loadable handle here This works. I promise it does!

@jekyll Plz listen to this guy he is almost a doctor

@quez I believe you’ll benefit from it. @rabbie77 KBOMG is also legendary here.

@proudsoccermom You can Def just follow a traditional strength program & replace movements with the bells. I flip between gym & homework outs all the time. Just know what movement the program has written & if you wanna do a kb move instead, flip it with a similar kb variation. For instance...

@quez They are both great. The Press requires more absolute strength, the Jerk is a more explosive movement. If you're talking about the Girevoy Sport Long Cycle when you say clean & jerk, you have the ability to do the movement for a really long time which is cool. I'm not really sure what's...

@hunter101 What a fantastic post

@b5268 They all are fine - generally speaking a program will be better in the long run though. If you have specific goals - programs that reflect that will generally be efficient than random IG workouts. The random workout can be fun though haha

@paul1771 You're great. Execute the plan, hit it hard and if it's working there's no reason this only needs to be a 1 month long project.

@blesstafy If you know what you're doing, swings are fine. They're just not the best spend of time if you wanna get bigger or stronger. Clean & presses would take you much further. Or snatches. Or thrusters

@blesstafy Honestly, you may be looking for reasons more than what s&s can accomplish. But yeah you'll get back there quickly. Love mace training myself

@wakemantk Very well said

@wakemantk I'm generally game for any challenge offered me on this subreddit. And if you assessed it to me in a better context I likely would take it. But I see little purpose in engaging with someone that flies off the handle over an otherwise civil conversation. I didn't downvote you. I don't...

@blesstafy Have you addressed any of the technique issues that may have caused the strain? Or considered that if a program consisting of 100 unbroken swings hurt your back bad enough for 9 months away from bells, that maybe something else may be more effective for you? Regardless, yes, it's...

@yochanagrace Lolz thanks for the tag. This all started because I said that kettlebells work for conditioning but not as efficiently as monostructural work Taking a small reddit break cause I'm doing some business stuff but getting this tag was a highlight to my morning. Can't believe it's...

@rainadavis Not at all. I've taught plenty of students how to use Kettlebells & have had 10 year Olds swinging as heavy as 20kg so long as they knew what they were doing. Pistol Squats and push ups too. Kids are amazing sponges - they will naturally push themselves towards excellence. It's great.

@soldierofgod1988 Potentially but honestly at the level of strength he's at, strength gains should come very fast with proper eating. Sleep of course is a factor but you can Def just out eat bad sleep as a beginner. Then you get stronger & you still kinda can but your body hurts & progress slows...

@ivymeow It's a bit tough to keep up with all the numbers being thrown around, but a couple notes on programming: So long as you're on good programming, rest assured progression is a part of the program, so in a sense, so long as you do what the program says, you'll likely progress. There are...
