I got through Phase 2 4-5 years ago with 2x24kg (which unlocked 2x32kg x 1), but didn’t have a second 28kg to go back and proceed with 2x28kg. Time to remedy that!
Completed week 1 of Phase 1 last week with 2x24kg. Training M-T-R-F with M/R being the “working set” days and T/F being the x-1 set days (which are done OTM for now).
I’ve learned I’m too neurotic for autoregulation (I am too in my head about what is or isn’t the right amount of rest) and too much of a punk for “as many rounds as possible” (I am just not able to push myself without an external motivator). I like the “kaleidoscope” logical progression of Strong.
I would be happy with myself (mentally and physically) being able to work up to 2x32kg for sets of 5-6. Since the first time I did it, I now have 2 12-32kg adjustable comp bells, so I can do intermediate Phase 1 rounds with 26, 30kg etc. if needed.
