25 October 2019

1. 16 kg TGU - 3 per arm. Shoulders hurt.

2. 17 kg KB OA press: 5 x 2 per arm

3. MegaRep pushups. 2 green bands, 100 reps, 7 minutes.

I have the impression that double KB jerks help with shoulder pain.

Amendments to the program

Aiming at six sets from the first go was hard. I decided to introduce the progression to the program. It is similar to Pavel's press ladders, increasing the number of repeats first, then increasing the number of sets in one repeat.

One set - 5 reps of double KB jerks
Rest between sets - 10 - 15 seconds
Rest between repeats - 3 minutes.

So the progression steps would look like that.


  • 3 sets x 3 
  • 3 sets x 4
  • 3 sets x 5
  • 3 sets x 6 
  • 4 sets x 6
  • 5 sets x 6
  • 6 sets x 6
  • Increase the weight.
