Out of curiosity why would anyone do S&S over DMPM?
Can it have something to do with the "testing" aspect mentioned earlier?
I was intrigued by Pavel’s three minimalist programs consisting two exercises, one BB, another KB, and a BW program. It really got me thinking about how much is really needed and effective, and how much is extraneous. I’ve never run one because it seems that just two exercises isn’t quite enough to hit the basic human movements. Though DL and a press is pretty close.
As for S&S, I want to run it, but the TGU holds me back. And whenever I think about it, it just seems like the DMPM is better and more complete. I will run it during a summer race season as maintenance and for fun either alone, or in combination with the DMPM. I think the testing to achieve a standard is part of its appeal. I also think the weights are a little high. I think 24 for Simple nd 32 for Sinister better represents a basic GPP standard.
