Combining that with every minute on the minute and having 3 exercises listed is where I am getting confused I think. <br /><br />I'm guessing that the 5x5 notation is mentioned somewhere in the RMAX stuff and I just missed the reference, because otherwise it looks like a fairly normal RMAX or other timed workout where you do this much stuff every minute when the clock strikes.<br /><br />Out of curiosity, how many total minutes did you work the clubbells?morazihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04825168016145822200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180871091582994226.post-84761743838757669692010-09-11T07:50:21.172-04:002010-09-11T07:50:21.172-04:00Morazi, the 5x5 is not the density training.

I will give you an example of the density cycle. It starts off 4 reps every minute on the minute for 20 minutes if I am not mistaken as I don't have the book in front of me. Then the progression changes every cycle (Mod, High days). When everything is said and done your last high day is 100 continues swipes in 10 minutes I believe.<br /><br />The Primer is very nice to have and I am excited to really dive into it. It is a great thing to have to build a strong foundation in Prasara.<br /><br />If you have any other questions please feel free to ask.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00630973290270943877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180871091582994226.post-89763329766450148402010-09-10T22:08:13.514-04:002010-09-10T22:08:13.514-04:00Is the 5x5 the density training from Ryan?

I may have missed the format in my scan through of the Big Book.<br /><br />Glad you like the Primer so far. I really like how well it breaks down all the flows into really digestible pieces for people just starting out like me.<br /><br />Sounds like a great workout!morazihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04825168016145822200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180871091582994226.post-76376888938399983492010-09-10T07:14:11.580-04:002010-09-10T07:14:11.580-04:00Dean, the forearms were burning but I could have g...Dean, the forearms were burning but I could have gotten some more work in. I felt more fluent in the movements then I thought but that's a good thing.<br /><br />P-Primer is great I have gone through it more and I think it was $70 well spent I could see myself using it for a long time to come. I think it's going to do wonders for my flexibility.Brianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00630973290270943877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4180871091582994226.post-79274946541015330842010-09-09T16:56:59.109-04:002010-09-09T16:56:59.109-04:00So how did your forearms feel after your first CB ...So how did your forearms feel after your first CB session? I can remember all sorts of burning going on there! I uhhh have some extra time now to do the things I want to do. P-Primer is on my to do list. I need to revisit a lot of the basics.Deanmchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15778742792937081046noreply@blogger.com
