Kettlebell - July, 2023
This is correct! Ladders are confusing at first but now you know how to read them. Have fun and let me know how everything goes.
Thanks. What I can tell you is that the DKCJ conditioning from March 2024 is brutal - I'll leave my feedback on that page...
Sounds great brother! I’ll look up which program you’re referring to.
Hi John and thank you for offering this month of free training as it's your birthday month!
Training Session A / A1. MED Kettlebell Chains A / Double Kettlebell Clean + Press + Squat
How do the ladders work please? E.g. heavy is it 3 x rounds of 1 + 2 + 3 reps e.g. 1 + 1 + 1 / 2 + 2 + 2 / 3 + 3 + 3 = rest as required?
No. Clean + Press + Squat with 3 Ladders of 1, 2, 3 rungs means this:
First Rung: Clean + Press + Squat
Second Rung: Clean + Press + Squat + Clean + Press + Squat
Third Rung: Clean + Press + Squat + Clean + Press + Squat + Clean + Press + Squat
Then repeat the ladder two more times.
If there is a number after the ladder in parenthesis (ie; 3), you'd do an extra set of
Clean + Press + Squat + Clean + Press + Squat + Clean + Press + Squat
OK I think I've got. There is no number after the ladder on this MED chain though?
Medium weight would be:
First rung: 2 unbroken rounds of Clean + Press + Squat
Rest as required / fast loose
Second: 3 unbroken rounds of Clean + Press + Squat
Third: 5 unbroken rounds of Clean + Press + Squat
Repeat 2 x more times?
