Hi all
I have been following the even easier program for six days and have a question. I am 46, 6’, a chubby 205 lbs, and have been lifting weights on and off for 30 years. Here are my lifts for the program.
Bench (max 210) working with 135 to 170
Row (max 185) working with 115 to 135
Squat (max 250) working with 155 to 185
Ab wheel. 10 reps.
100 Swings with 40lb kettlebell (heaviest the gym has) - takes about 8 minutes
Loaded carries with trap bar @205 for 150 yards
My question is does This look correct for even easier strength? The main lifts are, well, easy. But the swings and loaded carries have me grunting and huffing and puffing. Especially the carries I’m drenched I sweat after those.
I’m worried that I’m going to hard on the last two and it will affect strength. Should swings and carries be like that or should they be easy too?
Many thanks for any input.
