Kettlebell Opus – Newsletter #13
A basic tenet of weight training is progressive
overload. Progressive overload can involve many factors
such as total amount of weight lifted, number of sets
and reps completed, and amount of time a
workout\exercise takes to complete.
*EDT training automatically tracks and records all of the
above. The time frame is pre set. You already have a
pre-existing record of the previous workout’s sets and
reps. You know exactly how much weight and how many
times a specific weight was lifted. Your goal in the
next workout is to exceed the volume of work completed
in the previous workout. In other words you are clearly
defining your goals and progressions leaving nothing to
chance.
The beauty of
*EDT training lies in its simplicity. Applying *EDT to
your kettlebell training will provide you with
challenging, progressive workouts. Check out *EDT
