Hello all,
As some of you know, my base program is S&S. I'm doing it 2-3 times a week with the 40kg bell. I have been doing S&S for over 3 years. I bought a barbell about 2 years ago and have been doing deadlifts (inspired by PTTP) with it and also kettlebell military presses (inspired by PTTP but also ETK) quite often although not following a real program for these, for the past 2 years.
In any case, what I want to do is to get my press up to 48kg, which is a Strong First goal for kettlebell pressing. I'd like to also get my deadlift up higher. This would involve having some kind of plan besides Grease the Groove type random training on non-S&S days. I am well aware of what S&S type power and mobility strength grants me in life and judo, but I am very curious about what more slow, heavy strength feels like and also how it will affect my judo.
I deadlift 370lbs for 2-3 singles at a time with a rest of a few minutes between each. For kettlebell military presses I press the 32kg bell for sets of 3 reps. When more into pressing I have pressed it up to 6 reps before. I can press 32 doubles once, although when more into it I could do it 3 times. I have pressed the 40kg before for 1 rep with both arms.
I'm wondering if anyone might have some advice on sets/reps how often a week to do deadlifts and presses in order to get better at them.
Why am I asking this? My big goal for a while was to get to using only the 40kg bell for S&S, and since I've gotten there I don't mind trying to add other kinds of strength. My ultimate goal for S&S is of course Sinister.
