I have been alternating 044 with KBSF double Long Cycles for the last 6 months. Good stuff. But I have wanted to try using the "Long Cycle Viking Push Press" in both programs, so I am going to commit the next six months to it.
So it's snatch to lock-out, VPP, re-snatch to lock-out, VPP,..repeat until strong, powerful, and enduring.
Both the snatch and VPP are approved Q&D movements, so they (obviously the snatch part) should work for A+A as well. It will fit into the KBSF Long Cycle plan, both A and B, just fine, and offers the opportunity for a lot of same but different variability in Q&D. Using it for both plans should enhance skill development. The only potential issue I see is it being too much for the shoulder. Patient progress should (should) mitigate that.
Plus I really just enjoy doing them, which always helps.
What could go wrong? I'll let you know, early next year.
