Subversive Fitness: Day 270 of 360

Move deliberately and aggressively, and attempt no rest outside the short, designated duration in each round.

Written by Greg Walsh Last updated on Oct 20, 2021

Day 270 of 360

Deadlift: 5 x 3 @ 85% + of 2RM

Rest as needed between sets. Move as close to recent 2RM as possible for positionally sound, uninterrupted sets.

Reminder: Even when lifting heavy, position, organized execution, and a full range of motion always govern weight.

Today:

Perform 10 push-up and
10 kettlebell swing @ max 35lb. W,
55lb. M immediately following each set of deadlift.

Day 270 of 360

Deadlift: 5 x 3 @ 85% + of 2RM

Rest as needed between sets. Move as close to recent 2RM as possible for positionally sound, uninterrupted sets.

Reminder: Even when lifting heavy, position, organized execution, and a full range of motion always govern weight.

Today:

Perform 10 push-up and
10 kettlebell swing @ max 35lb. W,
55lb. M immediately following each set of deadlift.

Rest as needed once the three movements are complete.

Then:

Kettlebell row: 5 x 3L, 3R @ as heavy as possible in each set

Ambitious, powerful, uninterrupted sets. Rest as needed between. When scheme is listed as “5 x 3L, 3R”, it always refers to “Sets” x “Reps”.

And then, as quickly as possible,

3 rounds of:

30 1-arm kettlebell swing @ (up to) ⅓ BW
20 Abmat sit-up @ same
10 Burpee
5 breaths rest (no more than :20 sec.)

Move deliberately and aggressively, and attempt no rest outside the short, designated duration in each round. If position breaks or set requires interruption at the chosen weight, adjust one interval and continue.

Keep kettlebell anchored at the solar plexus or above in each and every rep of Abmat sit-up.

Reminder: Pace does not (or, should not) alter position/ execution.

And finally, “Time under tension”:

Underhand bodyweight row hold (Use barbell + chin-up grip for hold) +
minimum 20 calories Airdyne @ cool-down pace

Work to “True” failure (loss of physical positioning) not “Relative” failure (loss of mental endurance). If time reaches two minutes in hold, you may stop if desired. If time is under two minutes, do it again, and accumulate at least two total minutes.

About Greg Walsh

Greg Walsh is a product of counter-culture, and remains immersed in it to this day. The discovery of BMX bike riding and hardcore music in early adolescence opened a door of questioning and critical-thinking that has paved the way for everything since. Action sports, hardcore music, martial arts, and strength and conditioning have all proven to be lifesavers, not simply pastimes, and contributing to each in the best ways humanly possible is Greg’s daily mission.

Wolf Brigade is headquartered in Rochester, New York, and is the product of Greg's lengthy training experience and varied physical backgrounds. Their website chronicles and details daily training, and contains hundreds of videos, pictures, quotes, and pieces of writing. Greg’s non-fitness writing website, War of Attrition, accepts subscribers and his first novel, Theft of the Age, will be available everywhere in the fall of 2015.
