climber511 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 Starting S&S. Appreciate any thoughts or feedback from those who might have done it already. The only addition I plan to add is my "Breath Holding" training and some additional stretching as is in the S&S book - I have a goal to hold my breath 3 minutes (or longer) again like when a younger man. CO2 and O2 tables shouldn't add too much. I've used KBs as a part of my other training but this will be my first actual "program" of only KBs. I have been taught proper technique by a couple RKC certified friends so I'm not uneducated entirely. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blacksmith513 Posted October 17, 2022 Share Posted October 17, 2022 I've been doing it off and on.. Just started back up a month ago.. Its a nice addition to my grip/bending for someone with not a lot of time. I don't care about bench/dead or squat.. I just like grip/bending and being relatively fit. Additional stretching is always good. Its been great for someone in construction.. I'm up and down all the time, I fall sometimes, I climb, dig, bend over, carrying stuff over head.. Some days I don't have a lot of time/energy so I blast through it with light bells, or 1 arm swings with lighter bell, or go heavy and do less swings.. With TGUs, when I get to a new weight I do 1 rep left, 1 rep right. As I get stronger I try to do more in a row for the TUT. I'd like to go till i get up to 100lbs kb tgu. Which if I went at it aggressively I bet I could get there in under 6 months. But grip is where i'm giving all my attention too right now.
