EDT has worked so well for years. Charles created it out of a thought experiment and very slowly, after many years, more and more science backs it up. It's hella fun, too.
cool concept! So a famous kettlebell program DFW (dry fighting weight) is literally a type of this program. 30 min of as many sets of 2 exercises (clean and press and front squats) for define small number of reps
Have been doing the program for a few weeks & loving it! Question for you: when counting the reps up to 60, do you count all the reps in a superset or do you count them separately? (In other words, if I do 5 reps of one exercise and 4 of another in a superset does that count as 9/60 or 5/60 & 4/60?)
Thanks for the great video. I have 2 short questions: 1. What is the rest time between supersets (or even between exercises)? Blocks? should this be performed in an EMOM kind of way or continuously until you reach the designated amount of reps in a block) 2. How to incoporate conditioning like running @75% max heart rate? Thanks again.
@@HardstyleKettlebellPro Thanks! Also, what about using 3 exercises per block (for instance adding some abs/core work, or another muscle group that does not relate to the other 2)?
Hi Louka, can you make an example for the A and B program that you suggest here. 3 blocks in each?! 3 Different super sets (6exercises). That makes a total of 12 exercises in an A,B template? Would be cool to clearify 🙏
Great explanation, thanks! I'd like to ask, what do you think is the reason for the enormous difference between Strongfirst and almost can say the whole remaining part of the fitness industry in the principle of proximity to failure. Almost all experts have been praying for decades that being close to failure is the no1 key to hypertrophy. On the other hand, Fabio Zonin says totally the other way. Do you also think staying most of the time in the alactic zone also plays a huge role in this system's success as Zonin says?
Both systems work for sure, although they stand in opposite philosophy. Training to failure was popularized by bodybuilding. Training short of failure or sub-max sets is a strongman mindset that he will never miss a rep. IMO , the second, has more benefits. Less injury and more perfect reps 💪🏻
Thank you for the awesome explanation. 2 questions for you I'm curious about from your experience: 1. Is this an all-or-nothing approach to take? I am following a hypertrophy program right now (LULU Split) and wanted to add some EDT into the program, maybe 1 or 2 blocks per workout. 2. Have you used EDT with young athletes in high-performance sport?
1. Try adding 1 block and see how your body reacts. Then try maybe a second one. You'll know right away if you're overtraining. 2. Works well with everyone
"Force x Mass = Acceleration"??? Wow! Isaac Newton is rolling over in his grave - over & over again!!🤣🤣🤣 And, how exactly is this fancy-name training style different from periodized AMRAP-style training?? Seems quite similar, or even the same... Even AMRAP-style is a density style/kind of training...
It’d actually different in variety of ways - Soviet lifters used it in different ways. Well known strength coach Ethan Reeves has used it in various forms and as mentioned in the video Charles Staley popularized it in the early two thousands. The principles of EDT can also be used beyond strength training - Charlie Francis used similar principles while working with elite sprinters. If you want specifics you can start researching those folks.
You are right about 2nd Newton's law: F=m X a so Acceleration= F / m But, despite this mistake, the program is well explained and it is efficient, worth to try.
@@milangrzin5353 Oh, I realise/understand that was just an inadvertent error, hence my joke! Also, yes, the programme is good. I actually want(ed) to understand the difference(s) between this & the standard/usual AMRAP style periodized, progressive overload programming/programme...To me, this seems pretty similar...
It seems very similar, but it is different, subtly. This has been studied in a few indirect ways, but the gist is this: When I go to failure on a set, rest, repeat, and then time it from the first rep to the last rep, I can get a reps/second value. If I do the same but avoid failure until the end, the reps/second is surprisingly close but a bit greater in value. So that is surprisingly close to the same. But, what is different is the fatigue. I can do EDT for greater weekly volume by either doing greater volume in the session, or I can reduce the frequency due to less fatigue to recover from. This last bit is not as well studied; it's primarily anecdotal. But what is true, for many folks, is it is more fun, less draining, and it works as well. In the end, results won't likely be different, but the experience can be, for some better.
My favorite way to train. Simple, efficient, effective. Checks both the strength and conditioning boxes
Great Video!

top quality as always

Yes! Many of Geoff Neupert's programs are density based
I enjoy the wall pics of the moves.

Second answer. 60 reps per exercise

Do not rush the clock, but go when you feel ready. Use autoregulation. You will get a cardio effect if it's done properly

Lots of options here.
Think Push/ Pull, Squat/PULL, Hinge/push, upper/ lower...many options. Even can mix ABS and Ballistics in there. Enjoy

Coach why we should doing left then right swing but left and left snatch in quick and dead programs by pavel ? Why we don't do snatch same as swings ?
Because those are two different protocols with different objectives
Sorry for the lack of understanding but would a unilateral exercise be 60 each side or 30 each side?
60 per side
Hi, does 60 reps in total mean 60 reps for the entire superset or 30 reps of each exercise? Thx
60 reps each exercise
Trainig 3 days a week, what should you do the rest of days? Just cardio? Walk?
Walking is great combined with mobility work
Total 60 reps individual or? 60 Deadlifts , 60 pushups?
60 reps each exercise
