Hey SFers. I’d like some opinions on whether I stand to notably lose progress with my current plan.
Approximately 8 months ago, after a enjoying predominantly barbell training for a year or two, I decided to revisit my kettlebells and simple and sinister. I re-achieved the Simple standard, and then decided to revisit Right of Passage after.
I completed a round of the program with the 24 kg for c&p, 20kg for snatches, 32 kg for swings. I did Q&D on my off days, twice a week.
After the final week, I started another round with 28kg for presses, 20kg again for snatches, and 36kg for swings. Instead of Q&D, I ran and practiced pistol squats. I completed my final “hard day” today.
I haven’t yet tested my max reps with 32kg for presses.
My plan was to return to S&S to start chopping away toward Sinister, either going all the way or stopping mid way to ROP some more with the 32.
My question is, if I return to S&S to begin working toward Sinister, will I experience a notable decline in my pressing strength, compromising my potential ability to reproach ROP with the 32?
I understand principal of training, but I’d like to ultimately press 40kg, approximately half my bodyweight. I also think I need a break from ROP after two sequential cycles.
