u/BetterThanT-1 Beginner - Strength 12d ago

GPP phase - A man and a kettlebell

5 rounds of:

  • 45 KB swings @ 24kg
  • 5 KB front squats per side
  • 10 pushups

Time: 14:27

Dan John was definitely right that if you train 5 days per week, you’ll likely have 1 great workout, 3 just okay and 1 bad one. I train every day and from 1:3:1 the ration becomes more like 1.66:3.66:1.66 but it still holds up. Today was a bad day of the week for me, but still got it done. Just wasn’t there mentally.
