Sergio Merino:
Great article Todd!
ctstrengthcoach:
@BX2VA - Glad to be of help to you! When I began training exclusively with kettlebells for the RKC in the fall of 2012, I was surprised to see that the 3 month lay off did not negatively impact my training and while I don't train with them exclusively anymore, I continue to utilize them in both my own and my athletes training programs.
ctstrengthcoach:
@GraniteJack - I completely agree especially if you are well versed in training with kettlebells. For a novice/intermediate lifter or someone who has never used kettlebells in their training before, I do not feel progressive overload is the only means to increase size and strength. Most people would do well with simply training for the goal of reaching the Rite of Passage (5 ladders of 5 reps with double 24's) which would achieve progressive overload through volume and not resistance or load.
ctstrengthcoach:
@spoony02 - that was definitely a typo, I'm not even sure there are 24 lb kettlebells. Thanks for the notice!
ctstrengthcoach:
cont... whether it be a change in load, exercise tempo, volume, rest, etc... Look at the quick lifts as a new stimulus for increasing mass.
ctstrengthcoach:
@lunk - If you minimize eccentric stress, you minimize DOMS which will allow for a greater training frequency leading to more load and time under tension throughout the week. While the eccentric component cannot be slowed down, that does not mean that there is no eccentric component. Utilizing the lifts in "block training" would be my suggestion. 2-3 weeks of grinds (presses and squats) and 2-3 weeks of ballistics (clean and snatch). Most trainees always benefit from sort of new stimulus....
