MV02 - Lat & 15:15...

I went back to the LaT protocol this morning again with the 20kg bell. I have not done it in two weeks and it kicked my ass.

The protocol calls for 32 reps done in a minute (total) with a two minutes rest after each set. I did 8 reps per arm twice for the 32 total and then rested for two minutes.

My training looked like this:

LaT - 20kg bell - 3 sets of 32 - 96 reps total
 
Then I did timed snatches with the 16kg bell. I did sets of 8 with each arm with approximately 15 second rest between hand switch. I did 20 sets of 8 in 9 minutes and 45 seconds.

Snatch - 16kg bell - 2 sets of 8 - 160 reps
 
I finished with: Hanging Pikes (toes to hands) - 25 reps
 
My snatch total was - 96(20kg) + 160(16kg) = 256

VWC - LaT Protocol - 10 Sets of 32...

I did the LaT protocol this morning again with the 20kg bell.

According to Kenneth Jay's book - "you will be striving for something called cardiovascular specialized variety. Enter the LaT protocol for upping your lactic acid tolerance (LaT)"!

The protocol calls for 32 reps done in a minute (total) with a two minutes rest after each set. I did 8 reps per arm twice for the 32 total and then rested for two minutes.

My training looked like this:
LaT - 20kg bell - 10 sets of 32 - 320 reps total
 
This was HARD! My breathing was fine but my strength gets zapped at around 8 sets. The lactic acid is a killer. Getting to 15 sets is going to be a bear! But. I will get there.

VWC - LaT Protocol - First Attempt...

I decided to start the LaT protocol this morning with the 20kg bell.

According to Kenneth Jay's book - "you will be striving for something called cardiovascular specialized variety. Enter the LaT protocol for upping your lactic acid tolerance (LaT)"!

The protocol calls for 32 reps done in a minute (total) with a two minutes rest after each set. I did 8 reps per arm twice for the 32 total and then rested for two minutes.

My training looked like this:

LaT - 20kg bell - 5 sets of 32 - 160 reps total

I finished with: Hanging Leg Raises - 50 reps

I plan on sticking with the LaT. I want to eventually get to 15 sets of 32 before I reduce the rest to 1 1/2 minutes and then try to get to 15 sets again. Then I hope to move up to the 24kg bell! This was a great departure from the 15:15 and hopefully it takes my strength-endurance to a new level.
