This Is How A Kettlebell Expert Plans His Weekly Training Schedule - (SO YOU CAN TOO!) 

Good channel most definitely...I'm a negative guy most of the time but this is good channel❤️

Swings are a great accessory exercise for tea parties

Glad you think so!

FYI: it's what body building / weight training are called in French: "culture physique", also called "musculation".

@@sfermigier Russians use that word too

Unbelievable that you can lift so heavy loads but can not lift 32kg clean and press I always thought how strong Kettlebell training really makes you I think it's because it's a free weight and difficult to hold and stabilise ?

@@ru8775 yes, definitely. I had to work on in and now it much better. But most of it, posture got better so do lifts. Everything is connected

Ha , very good idea 😄👍 I think it's a great idea actually and I have to try it 😄 I wonder why no one has commented in 10 months ? This sounds like a DIY style of old time strongmen barbell Where you have to improvise and use your brain to lift it 😁 Thank you man I read it in pavel tsatsoulines books but never thought about it , because I always thought the kettlebells would fall down instantly But with a lock they can not 😂🙈 Gute Idee 👍

Exactly , with bar plates you can not do alot except holding them to train your trip With kettlebells you can do alot Now it seems almost everything 😂🌠 Its 3:30am and I'm commenting This is a really good time for ideas 😂

@@ru8775 thanks man let me know how it goes!

@@Smackbox I will 👍

i recommend you check tennis elbow article on setforset blog

@@MohamedAmine-nq5rj thank you !!!!!!

Hi! Thanks for sharing your way of doing things. Wanted to ask; what bell size you use for floor press? It's basically narrow grip ish bench...isn't it? My bench was around 125kg, never had consistent program. Pressing from floor the 32kg for 5 reps feels good but I wonder where's my bench at now? 110? Or even lower? Last year I benched maybe twice.

@@ShapochkinKirill i use the kettlebell floor press more like a dumbbell bench alternative for adding extra volume. My bench was 115kg so naturally i tried going straight to the 32 kg which was too heavy for my left side (old injury) so i switch between 28 and 24 kg for my heavy and light workouts! Aim is to be able to work up to the 48kg on each side which i score at being (kinda) equal to a 100kg benchpress!

@@bogiOH Thanks for answering my question Bogdan... Godgiven 😊. I think that 48kg is equal to narrow grip bench. When I did 5s with 110kg the 32kg was still kinda difficult because if I remember correctly my narrow bench was around 90kg.

@@ShapochkinKirill if you are looking for something for the inner pecs try a heavy two handed club or mace press! #fun

@@bogiOH Thanks for suggestion! I have 6kg and 10kg clubs. Plus 6kg old school hammer with looooong handle.

The TGU is an outright slow grind exercise. The proper way to do a TGU is for 5 reps each side and not as part as a HIT. Also, they're are ways to challenge the existing weight first before moving up to the next weight and how you move up is important as well which I have showed below. But first, if you think you have mastered the 10kg for 5 reps each side, you can use the 10kg and add difficulty to the exercise to prep you for the 16kg. You can do a longer pause at each segment. That's one way to build more strength with the same bell. Or you can add a press at different segments of the movement. That's another. Or a very nice way is that you can aim to try to do the 5 reps without putting the kettlebell down...now that's a serious challenge. But you have to do the TGU in reverse for this and leave out the fetal position at the bottom. You start at the top and work to the bottom but don't go to the fetal position when flat on your back....you come back up straightaway again and at the top clean it onto the other arm and repeat. Search Mark Wildman videos for the demo. It's a total different experience altogether and tough challenge. If you can do 5 reps each side of that...you'll be ready for the 16kg no sweat. Also, another way if you have time in the work session is to add more reps. Instead of 5 reps being a target....work up to 8 or 10 reps each side. Then you'll be ready for the 16kg. Lots of possibilities before moving up in weight. Also, you don't introduce the next weight up (I presume the 16kg?) to the whole session. You introduce the 16kg one rep at a time per session. Example is: First session 10kg 1st rep 10kg 2nd rep *16kg* 3rd rep 10kg 4th rep 10kg 5th rep. You work on that no matter how many sessions it takes to totally master that single 16kg rep. When you have....introduce a second 16kg rep and maybe on the 4th or 2nd reps and repeat. Then keep going until slowly over time you can master all 5 reps with the 16kg. Then you can introduce the difficulty tactic again that I showed above before having to buy a bigger bell.

@@patrickokeeffe4787 This has been super helpful. Thank you so much. I guess i fall into the category of knowing just info to do significant damage XD I listened to Pavlov talking about the russian step approach when they wouldn't follow the western method of progressive overload but instead, continue to use the weight they have mastered for an extended period of time and then they will make a significant jump. Apparently this helps "Secure" the muscle gained at weight X before moving to weight Y. Again, thank you so much for taking the time to write your response. I hope you have a great day!

@@danielwatt3464 No problem it was my pleasure. Dont get fixated on the weight. If you have read Pavel then you will know that its all about the mastery of the movement and breathing. Steve Cotter is the same. The weight is only a second consideration. Treat the TGU like mediation...giving it your full attention to every aspect of the move. That's why it's not a suited exercise for HIT and an exercise designed to be done slowly. I would set aside a special day for it...maybe incorporate the swing like the "Simple and Sinister" program. You get both worlds then...a cardio HIT with the Swing and a slow grind strength challenge with the TGU all in the one session. That's why the program is popular.

Standard competition size.

I do bands to. Kettlebells aren't really designed for isolation work. Bands shore up that. Also you can use them with the bells. You can loop them on the bell on a goblet squat or deadlift to increase resistance of the bell.

You never thought of just doing KB rows, high pulls, raises, etc? Get an adjustable one and it does what a DB set would and more. Or even bodyweight rows

@@patrickokeeffe4787 what's stopping you from doing single joint movements with a KB like you would a DB?

@@InvisibleHotdog 1. The Kettlebells I have are two heavy for side laterals and bands are better anyway with the way they apply the tension to that exercise. 2. Same applys for curls. Tension is better at the top of movement. 3. You can't exercise in the horizontal plane with kettlebells. You can't chest press or row a kettlebell standing and get the same core activation and leg activation. 4. You can't micro load if you don't have an adjustable kettlebell or adjust tension on the fly like bands. 5. You can't do exercises like face pulls, rotor cuff exercises, triceps pull downs, lat pull downs and other nice exercises with kettlebells. 6. Bands are more portable 7. Bands are better to assist with mobility work in my opinion. 8. Bands can assist you in exercises like pull ups if you can't do them or..... 9. ....they can make push ups harder. These are a few of my thoughts and opinions. I like kettlebells, but they are only just a tool and it's a strange mouse that sticks to the same hole! 😉

@@InvisibleHotdog I have a pair of star lock adjustable dumbbells that bought 20 years ago before I started kettlebells with about 35 pounds per side and I can put my fat grips on them . adjustable kettlebells are junk and fixed weight bells have too great of weight jumps between bells where I can make smaller incremental jumps on my adjustable dumbbells !

absolutely agree with you
