  1. Kettlebell Snatch protocol Kettlebell 201 - a clarification question

    I am training with the snatch progression indicated in the program given to me in the workshop kettlebell 201. Progression involves running a certain range of series and repetitions until the average session time required to complete the given amount of work improves for two weeks. 20 x 5 =...
  2. Adding snatches to DFW

    Hi all I really like Geoff Neuperts Dry Fighting Weight program it’s really caused me to fall in love with kettlebells but I was wondering if there was a way to add snatches into the program. Thanks
  3. Kettlebell Kettlebell swing question

    Hello Strongfirst, I am new to this forum and also kettlebells. I recently got a 53lb one, and will be starting swings and push ups. I’m just wondering if hardstyle swings involve/strengthen the quads to any degree at all? I am adding squats for my quads, but just curious if swings target them...
  4. Off-Topic Why do you need a big chest?

    From my understanding, the other great apes use their impressive pecs to move around while hanging from trees. Its main function lies in adduction and internal rotation of the arm on the shoulder joint, hence it's big working connection with the lats. I can't think of any sports or real-life...
  5. Kettlebell Double kettlebell work question

    When working with double bells, should you tilt both kettlebells back towards you before the hike pass like you would for a regular 2 hand swing?
  6. PlanStrong/BuiltStrong Fabio Zonin's Bult Strong Program -Where to get it?

    If I'm not missing anything, even if I'm just a layman/enthusiast not interested on becoming a certified coach, the only way I can get it is by attending the next seminar? Its not available in ebook or customized paid plan? I mean, I have no problem with someone as knowledgeable and...
  7. Off-Topic Are periodic WHM rounds as effective as subsequent WHM rounds?

    I find it sometimes difficult to do the WHM breathing rounds back to back like the method is taught and I much prefer to do the rounds spaced out over 30-45 minutes. I’m concerned I’m sacrificing some of the effectiveness of the exercise by not doing the rounds back to back. From what I...

  9. Kettlebell Question about the hip hinge

    just double checking if I understand the hip hinge So during the hinge for kettlebell swings, deadlifts, etc. you push your hips straight back rather than down correct? Do you lower your hips down even a little, or is it only straight back to the rear?

    Kettlebell Q&D - Monthly Chalenge?

    I have read Q&D once and ran through a 6 week of 033 a while back. I returned to do a new cycle this week and I've been skimming the book again. I seem to remember reading a section where Pavel discusses challenging yourself to a tough activity once a month. However I've skimmed through multiple...

    Kettlebell How to get back on track with TGU

    When the gym closed, I made a "kettlebell" to continue training and kept doing the swings but I couldn't do TGUs due to the sharp corners. So now that my gym is open I can do the swings with 32kg but the Get Ups ara really hard to do, really unstable after the first rep on each arm. What do you...

    Barbell PTTP with 10lb increments?

    I have a weird problem. I am doing PTTP and the gym I go to has several barbells and lots of plates. However, for some strange reason they only have four (!) 2.5lb plates. Usually this is not an issue at all - I only need two at most on any given session and I am always the first one at the gym...

    Other/Mixed Whether a 50% reps is a 50% of effort ? "GTG"

    Whether a 50% of the maximum number of repeating is a 50% of maximum effort ? It is about "GTG" method I'm confused about something. For example: I tested my max in One arm push ups (legs together) I got 4 reps in good form so I decided to do everyday a few sets of 2 reps (50% of max reps)...
