Kettlebell Q&D - 2 times a week and delta principle

[Brutaal]

Hello,
Looking for some advice. If your using Q&D (mostly 033 protocol) as a standalone program and need to scale back to 2 times a week, would it be wise to drop/eliminate the two series from your dice roll? And just rotate through 3, 4, or 5 series (just to keep the volume up)?

Appreciate any input.

When I was going through a rough time, I ran 044 2 or 3 series 2x week.

That volume, it turned out, was a good maintenance loading.

I would only do the 2 series after a session of 5 series and still felt sore/tired...

I would focus on 3,4,5 series like you stated

Yes!

Appreciate this @Adachi. I will keep this in mind when October hits (my wife and are expecting twins).

Thanks @renegadenate and @james_1127, appreciate the input. I’ll run it like this for the next few weeks and then reassess.

Other than adding the occasional 3rd day and using a heavier bell at times, the volume is mostly made up 3,4, and 5 series.
