You should probably do rite of passage instead. It’s a program for when you have one kettlebell that’s your 6-8rm

Sorry gang...got another newbie question...I'm onto The Giant 1.2 and after Giant 3.0 will start Strong.

When I'm doing a set of 3 reps of Clean and Press in the Strong program is it:

A. Clean, Press, Clean, Press, Clean & Press or is it
B. Clean, Press, Press, Press.

Thanks

I cannot speak for this program specifically, but around here "press" means one clean and multiple presses while "clean and press" means a clean before each press. So 3 C&P means your choice A while your choice B would just be "Press."

It's "A."

Otherwise it would be designated "Press."

 

[Steve Freides]

It's "B."

Now I'm confused, @Geoff Neupert.

.....I'm kind of thinking Geoff had a typo of some sort.....I'm pretty certain having done many of Geoff's clean and press programs that it's a clean before each press when clean and presses are specified.

Apparently I was too.

Just made the edit.

Thanks, @Steve Freides.

All's well that ends well, Geoff.

Did anyone do the StrongEndurance version of this article? And more importantly, what was the outcome?

Brutally Strong With Double Bells

Hi there
Did anyone finish the Strong with only KB FSquats?
How did it go?

 

[Halfakneecap]

I tried but Giant 3.0 ( similar, kind of )and got humbled. That was not long after I switched to kettlebells so underestimated them. I’d love to do it again or something similar but I think I’d stick to phase 1 only and see how it went.

Currently doing Maximorum and the combo of C&P&FSQ is gold.

So I recently got diagnosed with atrial fibrillation (AF) and have been feeling really weak since the hospital trip… decided to take a step back and start strong phase 2 with my 2x24kg and slowly build my strength back up. First two workouts done snd felt nice and easy although not super easy (which is good!)

Anyone ever complete strong with a barbell squat or press?

i believe it could but it is better suited to kettlebells as they are a fixed weight. I feel a standard 5x5 approach is better suited

Thanks I use fixed loading for barbell blocks often. That’s why I was wondering.

And not a fan of typical 5x5 routines. But appreciate the .02

Did it with Dumbbell clean and press about 3 years ago. Program delivered.

Thank you sir. I appreciate the feedback.
I might give it a go after I run through my current progression again.
