What would you consider as the most important reason to include kicking in your workouts?
Also, what do you see as the main difference and purpose between the exercises kicking with a board and kicking without a board?
Most lifters and strength coaches feel that a strength program must be changed periodically (periodization) due to the body adjusting to the stimulus. This is a very complicated subject.
In order to know you would have to isolate one method do weights but stop kicking or vice versa.
I don't really periodize all that much. But as an ADD diva, :), I change things up all the time at the gym.
I'm not willing to stop kicking, not a remote chance, so that experiment is a non-starter.
I am willing to shift from heavy weights/low reps to a different kind of strength training though. My only hesitation in doing that is that it will cause havoc in comparing my times from 2009 (in B70) and 2010 (likely no B70 :bitching:). If I change the strength training regimen, then the comparison gets complicated and there are too many confounding variables. Oh well.
