    Should one be able to do proper swings (i.e. get through all the programming exercises) on their first practice session?

    @hummelav Its not that I was totally drained, its just that I didn't suspect I'd be able to do the primary training session in good form and still leave some strength in reserve. Its just that the movements are very new, and I'm using a waay more energy than needed to get the positions right...

    @dantheman1999 Hahaha, no rush, really. Having never worked with a partner or trainer (that subscribed to pavel's methodology), I never know if I'm going to fast or too slow. For instance, I used to do pavel's bodyweight exercises (one armed pushup and one legged squat progressions) rather...

    Should one be able to do proper swings (i.e. get through all the programming exercises) on their first practice session?

    tl;dr Could anyone maybe share their stories of how long it took them to progress through each programming exercise? I know I'm over thinking things, but I have a few basic questions: I used to deadlift pavel style daily, so I'm fairly comfortable (though out of practice) with the hip hinge...
