Advice needed.

74kg homosapien Male 33 yrs old USA.

YouTube: KBDANDO

I just finished my first year of kettlebell sport training. I like it and will continue training this year.

For the first 8 months, I did lone-wolf long cycle training. Lone-wolf means I trained without a coach, it’s not some new/recycled kb complex.

For the last 4 months, I hired a good but pricey coach and competed in 2 x 28kg long cycle. I completed 44 reps in my first competition (Rank 1 Score). I am somewhat satisfied with my result, but did not meet my goal of surviving the full set. I trained exclusively LC during this cycle.

I will rest this week and start a new cycle next week. As of now I don’t have a coach hired. Coaching year round is too expensive and I may train alone again for this next cycle.

Here’s my question: What Discipline/ weight should I do for the next cycle? Is it important to alternate disciplines or focus on just one?

FYI my focus is still on LC. But my Jerk sucks and my clean falls apart late in 28kg sets. My youtube videos can attest to that, if anyone cares.

Basically, I’m looking for free advice. If you want me to pay, feel free to court me and I may hire you as a coach.

Cheers.
