my wood got all bloody Member 1001, 5711 posts SQ 240, BP 160, DL 272.5672.5 kgs @ 102.5kgs UnEq | Lunch Time Conditioning Glute Activation x 3 minutes I spent some time coaching a colleague on chin ups and she managed to get her first one. Then bashed out 5 more (singles). That's 2 women I've coached to their first chin up. Burpees x 10 Broad Jumps x 10 Tuck Jumps x 10 Sprint 50m Walk Back 5 Circuits 50 burpees is becoming the norm these days for a conditioning circuit. That doesn't mean they are getting easier though. I can fight for longer now so this conditioning work is doing it's job. | ||

Am considering picking one up but can't afford both. Cheers Jon. They're both good bars and well worth the investment. If I had to pick I'd choose the trap bar. Depends what you want from it. I find the trap bar hits my legs harder than other DL variants. The SSB hits my back and abs harder than a squat. From what I've heard the SSB has the most carryover to other lifts. Hope that helps. | ||

Imagine it all helps with the KM!? That said some of it looks disgusting, especially burpees Good work Ha ha cheers mate, it is pretty nasty. Conditioning is certainly helping but I don't make any progress unless I really push hard. It's taken weeks but I'm starting to see the benefit at KM. I can now use my power for much longer. I'm also used as an assistant to demo the drills to the rest of the class so I must be getting better. | ||

Good trap bar lifting too, plenty of reps with a good weight and wise decision stopping before form breaks down. Conditioning work looks good, well actually looks horrid, but I imagine it will be doing you a lot of good. | ||

my wood got all bloody Member 1001, 5711 posts SQ 240, BP 160, DL 272.5672.5 kgs @ 102.5kgs UnEq | Cheers lads. Conditioning is awful, I hate it with a passion. It is giving result though and strength levels are coping well. It was a concern that strength would suffer of I upped my conditioning. I've still got a fair tub of jelly around the midsection but it's not quite as wobbly these days. My goals are; to be able to qualify for GBPF finals (in terms of weight, I'm no powerlifter and don't intend to be) while maintaining the agility and conditioning of a much smaller athlete. It's working well so far. On Wednesday at KM the summary drill had to completed in under 2 minutes and involved a combination of strikes then 5 sprawl, another combo, 4 sprawls, another combo etc down to zero. I finished within 30 seconds and managed good powerful strikes the entire time. This is exactly where I want to be. | ||

It was a good choice. Lunch Time conditioning The usually mobility and agility stuff plus a countless hip thrusts. Burpees x 30 seconds Jumping Jacks x 30 seconds Split Jumps x 30 seconds Burpees x 30 seconds Jumping Jacks x 30 seconds Mountain climbers x 30 seconds Rest x 30 seconds 5 Circuits. Doing this circuit made me question my life choices, it was horrid. I did manage to keep pace with the guy I was doing it with and he's a full 7st lighter. Skinny little runt. | ||
