STRENGTH WEEK: #4
Hi TXT Community, Here’s Week 4 of your 10-week Kettlebell Strength & Conditioning programming. Week 4 is the “Power & Control” week: reinforcing technique under fatigue and introducing explosive movement patterns. It is also the last week before we got to lower reps and heavier weights.
Have a great time with class and may the wods be ever in your favor,
Christa B

Tip:
Vertical pulling is about more than just getting your chin over a bar—it’s about owning your scapular position, mastering control, and developing true back strength.

4 Sets x 4 reps Pull-Up Negatives or Banded Pull-Downs. Tempo is 3 sec down, then a controlled up or assisted pull up. Rest 45 seconds after each set

11/17/25 - 11/22/25
STRENGTH WEEK: #1
HEY TXT COMMUNITY!!
Our strengths this week will be longer time and our WOD’s will be shorter. I’m trying to maximize our time focusing on strength. The warm up times will be shorter too.
We are BACK to week one of our strength calendar. And we all know what that means, volume & tempo movements plus speed & cardio in our metcons (metabolic conditioners.) The KX’s are lighter too. I hope you enjoy!
Have a wonderful week!
Christa

  • Have clients find their 3-5 rep max on the Dbl KB Dead Lift.  Repeat at top weight for 3 sets.  Between those 3 sets, have clients perform 8 KB swings with one bell (50% d-lift weight) focusing on max power, by pulling the bell back down quickly on their own using their anterior muscle chain.  Feel free to push their bell back down during the swing. The idea here is to have rapid deceleration followed by maximum acceleration.  Make sure they get plenty of rest between sets.
