Kettlebell Swings and Deadlifts

What is your goal for a max deadlift?

1 Like

Just as much as possible haha

I tried the AMRAP deadlift set training, it felt amazing. My low back felt better after then before, it suprised me. The back pump feels great and healing.

Ive decided on this routine, this time it’s different, I don’t think I will change this since it’s so fun.

My routine now:

Each day Double Kettlebell Clean and Press and Pullups training whenever I feel like

And every Wednesday AMRAP Deadlift 1 set ( I think every 2-3 days is impossible to do all out like this so each week i decided )

On this wednesday I got 180 kg for 7, I’m bad at high rep deadlifts so I think this is a great way for me to improve

When I get to 12 to 15 reps with 180 kg I will test my max again

I noticed in your last max DL you didnt appear to have a belt on. Do you always DL without a belt? My back aches thinking about it.

Good article. He was doing some VERY heavy KBs, but then again he DLs over 1000lbs. I had worked up to 3x12 at 110 (50kg) before my DL of 500. Have a handle for KB that you can use Olympic plates on, pretty slick set-up. My gym only has KBs up to 55lbs. Think the swings, along with heavy hip thrusts ( up to 375x3 for me), were crucial.

Yeah, the swings are great

But this is crazy, I started doing pushups again, and my physique completely changed within a day

I will keep doing pushups and swings and Deadlift each wednesday.

Swings 32 kg x 50

I’m going to start training at the gym again after long time of training at home

I am still figuring out a routine

edit:

This is what I have written down right now for my gym routine, it might change a lot

Monday, wednesday, friday

Highbar Squat 5 x 5
Incline Bench 5 x 5
Pendlay Row 5 x 5
Pullups 3 x -
Kettlebell Swings 3 x 30+

Ive never been good at squatting, so I think I can make great gains if I focus on it

What do you guys think about this routine?

Ah nevermind ill keep continue training at home

My mind feels a bit scrambled haha

Still cutting? And how much are you walking per day?

1 Like

Yeah I am trying to cut

I’m not sure how much I walk, but it’s a lot. But I eat too much.

Now ive been focusing on bodybuilding at home with pushups, goblet curls, kettlebell swings and pullups

Im 83 kg now which I feel is too heavy for me, Ive been steady gaining weight since quitting abilify

It feels like my appetite has been doubled.

I’m trying to cut at the moment but my weight keeps going up after quitting abilify. Glad I quit it but this is one downside I guess I don’t know how long this will last

I miss my old physique from last year even though I am stronger now

Im back to doing Kettlebell Swings and Pushups like I was back then, but now im way heavier
