Suggestion: change SL/PE1 mastery to 15r.

In this sticky post , the guidline  for counting repetitions of iM elements reads "For elements which alternate directions, eg) RC/PE4>iM, complete the total rep count on each side (unless explicitly indicated, as in sPL/PE2>iM). That is, left + right = one complete repetition."

 

That would indicate that mastery at the new SL/PE1 involves touching each side 30 times:

left + right, 1

left + right, 2

...

left + right, 30

 

However, you posted "15r per side is brutal enough" indicating you intended each touch to be considered a rep:

left, 1

right, 2

left, 3

right, 4

...

right, 30. 

 

So this change is simply for the sake of being consistent in your instructions; it doesn't change the amount of work required for mastery!

 

Thank you,

It could also be stated more clearly in the instructions for these alternating sides exercises, that the reps should be "per side" etc. Some of them do, some of them do not.

Actually the way the courses word it is correct, it's the stickied FAQ worded imcorrectly

30 reps total (15 per direction) 

 

You will get the most out the exercise if you really focus on using just your core muscles to lift and rotate your upper body as you hold onto the weight of you with a loose grip.
