First Post
Hello All,
This is my first post so I will quickly introduce myself.
I am 32 year old 5'11 165 pounder. I have no physical issues but stiff neck after my 8 hours in the office in front of the computer. Since I was around 10 I trained something. Be it basketball or karate. Recent few years I spent training according to cross fit bro-science in the gym. I lacked results but liked kettlebell training. So I decided to read Pavel's "Simple and Sinister" book and give it a go.
I started training on Jan 6th, 2018. Moved to 24 kg TGU after two weeks. Started using 32 kg bell around Feb 20th (and got to performing all the sets with it in about two weeks). I accomplished simple goal on April 5th and repeated the feat on April 6th and 7th.
In the meantime I read few other Pavel books ("Naked Warrior", "Enter the Kettlebell" and "Superjoints"). Then I went for Paul Wade, Ashley Kalym and Dan John books. It was enlightening to learn how Today's gym bro-science is far away from truth.
Now I am looking for new challenge and would like to take up "Rite of Passage" training. I have couple of questions in that regard:
1. Should I keep swinging 32kg bell or rather reduce it to 24kg for starters?
2. What do you recommend for variety days? I was thinking about including 32kg TGU to retain the skills I've gained in the PM . What besides that not to interfere with but rather supplement RoP?
Regards,
Jakub
