Kettlebell Dry Fighting Weight

[IonRod]

Pretty sure, you will nail a single with 1x24

I could already do 2 presses on my left and 3 on my right with the 24. I really hope to come closer to 5RM after this.

I plan starting a cycle of DFW, but i can only lift twice a week, should I still proceed with it or look for another program?

also from my understanding, should I clean the bell every rep of the double front squat, or just one clean then proceed to do the reps?

I would say 2x is not ideal, but you could cut the Friday (so keep Monday ladders and Wednesday lower-rep sets).

Just one clean for front squat sets.

How looks week 5, day 1?

3x3 or ladders. 1, 2, 3, 4, (5)?

Week 5:
Day 1: Perform 3×3.

But in article:

Week 5, Day 1, you’ll see “Ladders. 1, 2, 3, 4, (5).” That means if you feel like you can do a set, or sets of 5, then do so. If you don’t think you can, then don’t.

@taro 3 sets of 3:

• Clean and press x 3, rest
• Front squat x 3, rest
• Repeat 2 more times

Ok, thank you!

I think it should be Week 4, Day 1, you’ll see “Ladders. 1, 2, 3, 4, (5).”


I understood the 3x3 on Week 5, Day 1 to be a bit of a deload before testing your new max.


So Week 4, Day 1, do ladders of up to 5. Or only to 4 if you can't get to 5.


And on Week 5, Day 1, do 3 sets of 3, as a light day.


edit - @Sean M beat me to it. What he said.


At least that's how I read it.
