After about 5 months of Geoffrey Neupert's kettlebell WOD (5 days a week), I decided to take a break from the grind and only do kettlebells 2 days a week (Dan John style).
A few weeks in, I did a 40k TGU with ease. I've done it before but it was very shakey and probably a dangerous waste of time. This time, it felt like the 32, which I feel pretty comfortable and strong with. I'd been doing mostly double carries and double clean and jerks twice a week. I added TGU's recently.
(I've been doing TGU's for years. I've done a lot of them, but I hadn't done one for probably a month).
How did this happen? Why? Can anyone explain the principle behind this? Anyone ever have a similar experience? Would there be a benefit in doing these heavy TGU's only one day a week?
