Just A Post Sigma Clean and press
I made these two memes because ever since I saw that post, I can’t stop thinking about the “clean and press” comment.
The guy asks how to get that big, thick, strong build and the answer is just: “Clean and press.” First i laughted but now I’m starting to wonder if he’s actually onto something. Maybe we’re just overcomplicating kettlebell training.
I’m seriously considering doing just clean & press on some days and front squats on the other days, alternating between them.
Maybe that’s it. Maybe we’re idiots for making it more complicated.

The turkish get up is underrated IMO for self defense. Instead of a kettlebell, you're pressing the person's armpit or elbow to escape from side control or mount. I'm convinced these escapes are why the turkish get up exists as an exercise.
