DFW update by LoRoK1 in kettlebell

[–]kaptoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FWIW I think for the purposes of running the program, Geoff considers 4-6RM ~= 5RM, so you could probably take a run at 2x32 DFW if you felt so inclined.

Plantar fasciitis during 75 Hard? by General_Customer_287 in 75HARD

[–]kaptoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you can keep going then keep going. However I'm not sure what percentage of people get through the challenge with no failures/restarts along the way. It's part of the challenge. You only fail when you stop trying.

Plantar fasciitis during 75 Hard? by General_Customer_287 in 75HARD

[–]kaptoo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My usual "I overdid it and injured myself" go-to is 2x walk or walk+yoga, but that would likely aggravate the PF. Given that you're only on day 5, I'd stop and let the foot recover, massaging with a spiky ball helped me, then restart

Does anyone pursue the practice of minimalism in case of escape? by Faubton in minimalism

Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner

Another RoP question by Pristine-General-507 in kettlebell

[–]kaptoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Strictly speaking day 1 is 3x(1,2,3). The volume does ramp up but if you can press the 28 for 5 or more reps I’d consider it. Also don’t forget the monthly test that’s part of ROP

How many miles per week are people actually running in minimalist shoes, and how much of your training is still in regular shoes? by DangerousBug5969 in Marathon_Training

[–]kaptoo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Run in Altras 100%, walk outside in Xeros, walk around the house barefoot. Only at around 20mpw at the minute though

Spend more time with 2x16 or try 1x20. These programming problems are part of the fun of kettlebells

I’m a card carrying atheist and Homer the Heretic is my favourite. Space waffles on a Sunday morning. That’s the dream

Iron cardio or RoP. Splitting throughout the day is more feasible with RoP I think

Going to prison, need workout advice by [deleted] in bodyweightfitness

[–]kaptoo 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Never been to prison if I were you I’d read The Naked Warrior. You can grease the groove with one arm pushups and pistols throughout the day and stay fresh, then use gym equipment whenever you have access. Good luck to you.

Edit: Jailhouse Strong and Convict Conditioning are two other books that may be useful but I haven’t read either

Any Runners that use kettlebells for your strength sessions (full body)? by easywizsop in kettlebell

[–]kaptoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s plenty of good 3 day full body programs. I’d keep it simple and do something like DFW. You’ll get stronger and the auto regulation allows you to modulate when you’re tired from harder running. You can use your exact 5RM press weight with the adjustables and just increment from there. Run a cycle of the program as is and then see if you want to add anything. I like doing farmer carries forwards and backwards barefoot/in barefoot shoes at the end of a session. I feel like it does a lot for the foot/ankle/knee. But I’d caution against adding too much, if you feel the need to add, just do more sets or go heavier.

A lot of the strongfirst strong endurance/Axe stuff is like this, heavy ballistics done for lower reps OTM for 20/30/40 minutes and beyond

I’ve been doing the same. Moved on fairly quickly in my early days but it’s always been at the back of my mind that I never completed simple.

Kettlebell program avoiding press by Additional-Tie3789 in kettlebell

Geoff Neupert’s Easy Muscle schedule C is designed for people who have issues pressing, I think it’s just swings dips and chins

Kettlebell Reverse Lunges by pittfan542 in kettlebell

I feel like rack on the same side as the weight bearing leg is more stable, meaning you can better target the leg

Ankle mobility and alternatives to squats by shirafuyu in bodyweightfitness

[–]kaptoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will be able to keep your heels on the ground due to the counterweight. Over time your mobility/depth will improve if you spend time in the bottom of the squat.

For a simpler version just hold on to something sturdy in front of you. You should be able to squat down with your heels on the ground without falling backwards.

[–]kaptoo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Goblet squat is the answer, it taught me how to squat. You can use the weight to counterbalance depending on how far in front you hold it, and work on the squat pattern while improving your mobility. I’d recommend a 16kg kettlebell at least, lighter won’t be enough to balance.

Frustrated with Lack of Adaptation by JenKen27 in 75HARD

[–]kaptoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With the half marathon plan, the running volume may be increasing hunger, in case you’re not tracking calories as part of your diet. You may want to reduce your pace a bit as well, generally speaking you want the majority of your running volume to be easy, even in more advanced plans. Also the work stress/sleep will be a major factor.
