conditioning

There is a Crossfit WOD called Shawn that I've been interested in doing since I first heard about it. Basically, you run 5 miles, but after each 5-minute interval you have to do 50 pushups and 50 air squats. I've trained for strength for many years. I've also run 10 miles before, but never...

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...

Hello, When discussing training programs, are the terms conditioning and endurance synonymous? Thank you

Morning, During the pandemic I worked through Simple and Sinister. At this point I can comfortable complete all 100 swings and 10 TGUs with a 24 KG bell, and clean and press my 16 KG for reps. I’m still working on taming the arc and completing the workout for time. And at this time I only...

Hi all, https://bjjfanatics.com/collections/daily-deals/products/kettlebell-strong-first-by-pavel-tsatsouline I bought this a few months ago and read through the attached PDF. I am in favor of this plan as a BJJ practitioner and I plan to do it once I finish Kettlebell STRONG phase 2. The...

I apologise in advance if this has already been posted on here. I searched online but could not find a direct answer. I currently follow the programming of Ross Enamait. It basically looks like this: Day 1: Strength (Maximal Strength) Day 2: Interval Running and Core Training. Day 3...

Hi all, I've only got a 24kg Kettlebell. Been experimenting with Q+D (3 days a week) and really enjoying, I do it early morning and rest for 10 or so mins before doing some interval based/anerobic cardio from Tactical Barbell. I also do some Barbell training on the other 3 days. My question is...

Hey everyone, Apologies as I'm sure this has been covered many times before. I've just started a linear cycle, basic 2×5, utilizing sumo deads and standard bench. I'd like to throw in some conditioning so that I can keep my heart fit for the eventual cycle back to kettlebell. I was thinking of...

If you train a sport that requires conditioning what is the best way to develop that conditioning? 1) Train your sport to develop conditioning and then train only strength in the gym to allow your conditioning systems to recover more optimally for sports training or 2) to train both strength...

Hi everybody, it's my first post here, so at the beginning a thank you to everyone who contributed here. Knowledge I gained here is invaluable. I'm an amateur muay thai/k1 fighter who got interested in the concept of A+A. There's no one coherent body of text about this type of programming, so...

I'm doing the standard GSLP program which focuses on bench, OHP, squats, and deadlifts. I do a minimum amount of plug-ins (accessory lifts) per the program. Specifically, alternating each workout lying tricep extension and rows/CG Bench and assisted chin ups. All done 3 x 5-8. I want to get...

I recently acquired a barbell and am taking my first steps towards PTTP, however I want to ensure that I can at least maintain the conditioning I built on S&S. My current plan is to practise the PTTP lifts (deadlifts and floor presses, in my case) up to four times a week and do S&S twice a week...

So, I listened to the episode of the StrongFirst Podcast with Brett Jones (@Brett Jones ) and was interested with his discussion of the "Strength Aerobics" routine: Strength Aerobics: A Powerful Alternative to HIIT | StrongFirst I'm going to give the kettlebell circuit a try sometime this week...

I've been working a lot with kettlebell snatches lately and making great progress but it's tearing my hands up pretty good. I've learned to take things easy when I notice my callouses prematurely tearing but every now and then I'll get a nasty tear that can derail my training for a week or more...

Is there a standard for time gaps for rungs of a given ladder? From the materials I've read there is a lot of stuff written on resting between the ladders themselves, but the individual rungs--not so much. For example, I have been working my way through 803B & usually using 5 breaths between...

Excellent podcast with Firas Zahabi (coach of Georges St-Pierre). In the course of the podcast, they talk a fair amount about strength and conditioning as well as fight training and the threads of "easy strength" are pressed throughout. The ending is a little pedantic with weird philosophy talk...

Hi everyone, After more than year of dedicated kettlebell lifting, I decided to switch to barbell and slowly prepare myself for SFL. Unfortunately, I am not really experienced when it comes to barbell programming so I would gladly accept any pieces of advice I can get. But first few things...

Hey team, I just hit "Simple" yesterday and it went pretty darn well. Primarily because I spent so long practicing with 28kgs before a 32kg bell without a grip that tore my hands apart on the swings showed up that I was probably overdue to hit it. Anyway, I'm looking for what to do going...

Hello everyone. Posted a few things in this "Body weight" forum lately. Really glad to have found a group of people who can help me with my questions regarding TNW. I am 6'1, 154 pound male. Body fat about 12% (could be wrong, that's what it looks like compared to pictures though) No injuries...
