Light DLs, MPs, and Pull-ups

This week I begin to focus on MVO2 using a close hybrid of Master RKC Kenneth Jay's "Viking Warrior Conditioning". Monday and Wednesday will be light-medium strength practice. Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday is MVO2. Rest for Sunday and Friday. Every other week I'll replace Thursday's MVO2 with some light TGUs and medium-heavy swings.

DL:
200lb x 5 x 2

MP:
24kg x 5 x 2

Pull-up:
BW x 5 wide grip
BW x 5 chin-ups

Rest was 1 1/2 - 2 minutes between each set.

ETK Rite Of Passage (ROP)

ETK ROP: 24kg C&P + Pull Ladders

5 ladders
3 Rungs

All pulls were under the chin:
1 Thumbless pull-up
2 Close-grip pull ups
3 Chin-ups

Snatch:
10L&R
Rest 1 min.
3.5 rounds = 70 Snatches

After three days off from using the kettlebell,

I decided to test my C&P with a 24kg because of no pressing progress with the 32kg. I was only able to get 12 reps left and right without failure, which tells me I need more time off to rest and travel the road of the 24kg ROP. I have progressed with the 32kg swings and TGU's, except the C&P. I am guessing that my preparation for the RKC built more endurance relative to strength and I need to regain my form and strength with a weight I am better able to control with better form, the 24kg. I will practice C&Ps with the 32kg, and decide after more testing whether I am ready to move up with it after a few more weeks or months. So, with very little practicing and much more resting next week, I will begin my journey again.

King TUT (Time Under Tension)

I intend to raise the time under tension for my TGU training because after a couple C&P tests, my strength is just not there yet. My goal is to get at least 3 'easy' C&P reps before proceeding to the Rite of Passage. I know I need more sleep, etc. So, I will aim for a solid 8 hours.

Training for ETK Program Minimum - Week 3, Day 4:

Wall Squats, Halos, & Pump x 10 reps x 2

32kg:
TGU for < 7 min = 4L&R, but who's counting? TUT is King!
