Need help incorporating deadlifts for strength into my kettlebell/bodyweight program

[eagentebuddy90]

Hi everyone,

I've recently starting a program for conditioning and power that looks something like this: Monday and Friday: (soft style)Kettlebell swing and push press for 6 min, then 3 circuits of beyond-the-range push ups, pull ups, and weighted sit-ups, doing each exercise close to failure. I would like to incorporate deadlifts for raw strength say on Wednesday, but I don't know how many sets and reps to do considering I would only be doing deadlifts once a week and as part of a program that is very different in terms of how it hits the body. I'm still a novice in terms of strength and athleticism and my program is basic M-W-F routine, if that helps.

Just do something simply like 5/3/1. A quick google search will give you the basics.

Definitely go with this one. Google is your friend.
My advice to you is to try out some "intuitive lifting". Or in other words feel out your reps and sets, and see what you feel like could bring you the best results for what your goals are. Hope that helps a smidgen brotha, good luck and have fun!

Don't you find that calisthenics(pullups, pushups, situps etc) leaves you too fatigued and affects your form when doing girevoy sport?

Deadlifts for raw strength? I thought people did deadlifts because they wanted big forearms.

Well I do my 6(instead of 10 so I can do more weight) minute swing and press first, and then do 3 rounds of calisthenics.

Haha, yeah I hadn't really thought about the redundancy.

Thanks for the advice fellas. I'll google the 5/3/1 for sure.
