Skip the Plan? Why You Might Not Need a Program Yet

In this episode of Kettlebell Corner, coaches Jeremiah Waylon and Rogers Parks break down the role of programming in kettlebell training for you. They challenge the idea that everyone needs a strict program from day one, emphasizing the value of skill development, consistency, and understanding the context of your training.

You will learn:

•When to follow a structured kettlebell program (and when not to)

•The difference between programming and progression

•How to recognize true readiness to level up your training

•Common pitfalls of overly complex or random workout programming

•Why patience and repetition often matter more than random variety

•The importance of recovery and seeking second opinions on your routine

Whether you’re new to kettlebells or coaching others, this conversation sheds light on what really moves the needle in your training.
