Hi everyone, I hope you’re all having a great start to your weekend!
I have a couple questions today that I’d like to get some outside opinions on. A little backstory on my training right now: I’m doing S&S, I own “timeless 36kg” on both swings and get ups and am working on “timed 36kg”. I can do 10 swings on the minute with 36kg and, by itself, I can complete “timed 36kg” on my get ups.
I’m about to start my senior year of college, so for the next year the heaviest bell I’ll have access to is 36kg. At first, this won’t be an issue as I’ll still spend quite some time working on “timed 36kg”. My first question is, how can I make my “timeless” swings more difficult to build a strength reserve? Is it as simple as being more powerful and/or faster? I’ve thought about adding pauses to my get ups and adding “shadow” swings on my two arm swing days, but the one arm swings I’m not quite sure what to do. (I’d like to stay with 10x10 swings and not add reps or sets)
My second question is, when or if I reach “timed 36kg” during that one-year time frame, what are some ideas of programs I can do for the rest of that period? My long-term goal would be to complete “Sinister”.
An idea I’ve had was to do the Q&D swing protocol and/or the Q&D snatch protocol afterwards with 5x1 get ups on the lighter days. I would love to get some other opinions on the matter.
Thank you!
