Until a few weeks ago, I was doing a rather minimalist program of bodyweight training (with Tom Furman's "Armor of War") and very brisk walking (Z2 cardio basically). However, winter is in full swing here and temperatures have dropped quite a bit. Usually I'd just soldier on, but me and my...

Hello fellow forum members, I had a question regarding the two-handed kettlebell swings. For my kickboxing, I adopted the two-handed kettlebell swings as my main source for ''external'' cardio since I'm too heavy to run for my joints and I don't really have space at home to jump rope. I found...

I just received a question and I'm not sure how to answer it. This is someone with no access to kettlebells and the question revolves around conditioning. My default recommendation is always rucking, but I said I would ask the forum: "What do I do for Zone 2 cardio until I start working again...

I'm considering buying a Weighted Vest. When I put up a poll of possible cardio training methods for someone with knee issues, Weighted Vest Walks were the clear winner. With almost double the number of votes of second and third place combined. However, I've never bought a WV before. Could...

Hello all, I'm thinking of getting back to doing the 50/20 Bryce Lane program I was doing sometime ago. For those that don't know what 50/20 is, fear not: Bryce Lane 50/20 Program Twice a week I do 20 minutes of sandbag clean and press or sandbag shoulder and press. The other two days a week I...

Hello all, I've been working out using complexes for a bit now. It's been very invigorating, I really love using them. The issue is that I wonder if doing cardio (burpees and jump rope) alongside my complexes is too much work in a week. My question is if the conditioning/GPP that complexes...

Hi! Wanted to hear all of you guys amazing thoughts on something I've been working on for awhile now. I have a passion for endurance training and am running a half marathon every month (which is a new challenge for me). I am also slowly looking to attain mastery of the kettlebell press...

Hey everyone! This is my first post on the forum but I've had the pleasure of going to a Strongfirst event (Kettlebell course) last year in my home city of Sydney, Australia. I'm a novice/white belt BJJ competitor who is now balancing BJJ and boxing with some S&C fit in where I can. Over the...

Hey everyone, this is my first post on the forum. I just finished Pavel’s interview with joe rogan and I’m extremely interested in learning more and adapting my training. I saw that Pavel has taught marines training styles and that’s the branch i’ll be going into through an officer program. I...

I am on the S&S protocol and love it. I try to do it 2-4 times a week. Once a week I play "floorball" (innebandy). Its a Swedish land hockey game. There are lots of sprints and running. That day and the day after I don´t do any Kettlebells. Do you think I should try to do my kettlebells also...

Lately, I've been very interested in getting a good footbike for everyday use in the city (instead of public transport for 0.5km - 6km distances). I'm looking to buy a model like this Why not just buy a bike? - In Switzerland (where I live), a footbiker is legally a "pedestrian holding a toy"...

I know many recommend and do cardio in addition to S&S. I´m curious how you organize it and if you liked the results. Below a quote from Pavel, posted by @Bret S. : "Here is the rule of thumb of aerobic training before or after strength training. if you are focusing on neural adaptations, do...
