Hi have just read up on this last night on t-nation, thought i would give it a solid month as i have been doing lots of crossfit style workouts over the past 2 months. I varied the rests a little in order to incorporate a heavier weight (22.5kg/49lbs), i am using a single powerblock adjustable dumbbell, holding onto the bottom two thick bars for more grip strength. I wanted to give push/pull strength exercises between my swings a go, here is how my first day went this morning:
Warmup: Light boxing (on a body opponent bag) - 3 mins
2 trigger dynamic stretching for 2 mins (glutes, hams, quads, hip flexors, shoulders)
Prehab: TRX bridge/reverse leg curl for hip mobility x 2
TRX Hip and shoulder stretch (Both sides) x 2
Workout: 10 Swings (22.5kg/49lbs)
3 Pressups (controlled)
15 Swings
4 Pressups
25 Swings
5 Pressups
- 30 second rest
50 Swings
3 mins rest ( yes i know it is a long rest but it meant i was fully ready to blast the next set)
Repeat 4 times (5 Total)
Cooldown: Foam roll 3-4 mins (calves, hams, glutes, IT band, quads, middle/upper back)
I should note that i never changed the weight. Also after the first 2 sets (of 100 swings each) i started dropping the rest time of 3 mins to 2.5 and 2 as it didnt feel like i needed it after getting properly warmed up during the first couple sets.
Will keep posting my results
