Do people think you can run the Giant more or less indefinitely?
In my experience, there’s enough variation in the Giant programs to run them for a long time (assuming you have good technique to avoid overuse or possible strains).
Here’s my experience so far:
Starting RM Test: Dbl KB C+P 2x28kg x 10 RM
Week 1-4: Giant 1.0 - 2x28kg
Week 5-8: Giant 2.0 - 2x28kg
Week 9-12: Giant 1.1 - 2x28kg
Week 13-16: Giant 1.2 - 2x28kg
Post-RM Test: Dbl KB C+P 2x28kg x 16 RM
Starting RM Test: Dbl KB C+PP 2x36kg x 6 RM
Week 17-21: Giant 3.0 - Dbl C+PP 2x36kg
Post-RM Test: Dbl KB C+PP 2x36kg x 10 RM, 2x40kg x 3 RM
I also finally hit a 10 RM for 2x32kg for strict Dbl C+P which is a huge milestone for me.
I’m currently running the Giant 3.0 with a single 36kg kettlebell for strict presses.
