program

Hey ya'll! I've been divining into Heavy Club training these last few years, mostly do to Mark Wildman. I've really enjoyed this style of training but I've noticed there isn't a lot of free programs written out there. Mark has it all laid out in videos but you have to dig a bit to find them. So...

Hi all, I have both the Quick & Dead and the Kettlebell Strong First and I intend to do both back to back for 12 weeks each. I am wondering, if I had only one pair of 24 kg kettlebells, which program should I start with to get the most out of both programs? (like in milking / owning the bell...

This is something I've been experimenting with after doing a number of programs that require more brain power than I have to spare (ladders, complexes etc). Here it is short and simple: Workout A Warmup (I do kettlebell pushups 3x10) Double Clean & Press 5x5 Chin-Ups 5x5 Workout B Warmup (I do...

Hi. A few years ago I started practising Girevoy sport. It led me to Pavels books which led me to months and months of S&S training. After reaching Simple (Unconfirmed and most likely in questionable form), I purchased a barbell to learn Olympic weightlifting and added heavy DL's/BS to my...

I recently finished "The Way To Live" and man, what a read! If you haven't read it, I highly recommend you pick it up. One thing I don't really grasp yet is the workouts prescribed in there, though. In the book he outlines the "best training method", prescribes daily, twice a day, for all...

Hi all, I just wrapped up a month with @Geoff Neupert ’s KB Burn Extreme program and thought I’d share my experience and results for anyone else considering doing it. As with everything, YMMV. Why should you care: Let's start with the top-line results Weight loss: 17.5 pounds (199.5 -> 182)...

Good evening everyone! I'm not on here much but I found some old programs I wrote so I figured that I would share. The push-up plans were inspired by the original fighter pull-up program but after testing out this stuff with dozens of people, the numbers had to be modified. This was especially...

Hey! In about 15 months i will be trying out for my home country’s parachute regiment. This is a SOF unit with a really hard selection! At selection I will need to: Run 7km with a 22kg ruck in 35min Do 50 pushups Do 20 pull-ups And swim 400m in 10min If I manage this I will have to endure 7-10...

I have been training with the Faleev program for a bit but I want to switch it up. I’m thinking I want to do a program that focuses on accessories to the Big 3 that will transfer over. That being said I’m lifting at home so I don’t have access to machines. I have barbells, squat rack(with...

Hello StrongFirst Community ! Short introduction: I started kettlebelling last year and reached Simple last week. I am quite happy with that but I am also happy that I can continue with something different aswell. After internalizing Dan Johns phrase “Sitting on a whale, fishing for minnows”...

Or should I just do the 6 weeks then switch to a different program after?

Programs are like recipes -- you should try them as written if you want the promised results. Everyone knows that. But once my wife follows a new soup recipe, she'll almost certainly modify it next time. In fact, given her experience, she might modify it the first time. And she gets good...

Hi there guys! I've been training for about 3 years now, mostly crossfit and weightlifting. I started from being just a computer nerd into pulling 190kg deadlift and 160kg squat within 2 years. But, after that I could never go higher, and now I have problems lifting that weight aswell...

Hello all! With the new year comes new goals and resolutions, and I was excited to see "get stronger" on my girlfriend's list. I became a kettlebell proselytizer when I began my practice at the beginning of covid lockdown, so naturally my immediate reaction to her 2021 goal of strength...

Hi everyone! This is my first post to SF and wouldn't normally start a post unless I really needed some answers. I am a junior in high school and recently started lifting (past four months) consistently in an attempt to become better at the two sports that I do. Soccer as well as track and...

Hi all, this is my first post and I hope I put it in the right place. First off, I am a soldier and am required to pass a fitness test of high rep push ups and sit ups. I am using Grease the groove to up my number of reps for this event. I had read that GtG only works for 2-3 weeks until...

Which is better ??? A) choosing one program and running it over and over till you no longer see progress eg choosing PTTP or DDD or S&S and committing to that program for the next few years B) running one cycle of each program in a form of periodisation of programs. Eg running one cycle of...

Hello everyone! I wanted to share a simple program I created to help me get back in shape and fight the winter blues. It's fairly minimal and can be done quickly, but it works through 5 major movement patterns and can be pretty challenging! For this workout you'll need a mace and one or two...

So after reading some recommendations here I decided that Greyskull LP program suits best to my needs and liking as a novice. There is only one concern I have - the recommendation to use microplates to jump 2.5 lbs in upper body lifts. I am a product of Pavel's books and videos and firmly...
