Yes.
Being a temporarily "former" judo player, my thinking is exactly like yours.I voted for the TGU, but I would say it depends on what you are after. If you want muscular endurance, I would go for the TGU. If you are looking for explosivity and stamina, I would go for the C&P. Being a former gymnast, I like the TGU more. I tend to think of it as being an isometric exercise, since your body is under constant tension throughout the TGU. Builds a nice, lean body.
I'm a teacher and I don't look down on any question - all are good and lead to discovery.and I've got another one quote for you from my article
"as a student I was lost because I tried to be a coach, as a coach I was lost because I was not being a student."
No, I'm not doing "ROP" itself. I'm stealing one cycle from it so:Hello,
@Kozushi
How do you manage ROP + S&S ? Kind of light / heavy day ?
ROP is 3 days a week. At the end, you are supposed to press 1/2 bdw. I guess it is pretty taxing ?
Kind regards,

My goal is 48 eventually. I've stagnated completely at 32 for presses and for one handed swings. I'm upset by that. I weigh 98 kg, so you can see why I'm embarrassed.
Hello,
@Mark Limbaga
Impressive ! I weigh the same but press much less (trying to get better currently) and I GU only @32 (Simple).
Is this kind of Soju & Tuba press program ?
Kind regards,

What is this Easy Strength approach?For the presses, I use an easy strength type approach.
Then do S and S
What is this Easy Strength approach?
Ah, it's a book. I see. I don't have it.Do you have a copy of the book?
Look up Dan John's even easier strength and the 40 day program articles as well
Ah, it's a book. I see. I don't have it.
In itself, ROP is pretty challenging (CP + pull ups). Then, if you want to combine with S&S, you are more or less "obliged" to reduce weight for one of the two programs, due to recovery issues.Why not do the RoP routine with heavy TGUs on the variety days?
Wait a minute: I did not say combine RoP with S&S. I said do the TGU's on the 2 variety days that are part of RoP. Because that is actually an option from the book ETK:In itself, ROP is pretty challenging (CP + pull ups). Then, if you want to combine with S&S, you are more or less "obliged" to reduce weight for one of the two programs, due to recovery issues.
Do 5 x 5 loaded cleans alternated with 5 x 1 get-ups with a kettlebell heavier than the one you are doing ladders with. Rest for a few minutes between sets.
I don't understand what you are trying to say? If this is related to my post could you explain what you mean? SorryBesides, if we only consider GU (and no S&S), it is not a explosive move, contrary to the Clean. Shoulder ROM is different between a press and a GU. ROP is basically a pull and press program. S&S is not.
