Do you know if these pullups on fgx gets your axel deads and/or RT up?

Not sure yet. It may be too early to tell. Looking back in my log my last RT max was 160# on August 3rd and I had just started using fgx for pullups about 2 weeks before that. I've also been using a 3" rolling handle and I have two weeks left on that program so what I'll do is finish that, keep hitting the fgx and now 3.0 Ironbull pullups then drop both for a week and test to see if anything worked. Even a 5# PR on the RT would be worth it.

Good workout. I think the thickbar bp max out I did yesterday fatigued my forearms pretty bad. What i think I'll do this week is drop out Fgx pullups, no fgx shrugs, not bend on saturday, and hit that heavy 2.5 after taking it easy on thickbar the rest of this week. See how it goes.

I went up to 35 reps total on that workout but it wasn't all at once. I think that was sets of 4-6 to get up to that. Believe it or not I used to be able to do 405# x 10 reps in the "old days" lol. Keep up the good work bro! Btw what's your bodyweight?

I believe it, and I'll do my best to keep it up. I will start doing volume like that for a few weeks soon paired with some speed work. My bodyweight is 235 walking around, and I usually compete in the 231 class when I do strongman stuff.

10/12/14-Core/Grip

GHR situps: + chain x 10 x 10 sets

GHR back raise:+ chain x 20 x 10 sets

ss w/Grippers

Heavy 2.5 LH: F, F, F

124# 2.5 RH: F, F, F

Coc #2 (109#): max ccs rep out- LH-7 almost 8. Big rep PR!. RH- 5 off hand rep PR!

Rolling Thunder: LH- 163#, RH- 140#.

I have a different computer and for some reason it won't upload to YT but I'll work on it. I am really pumped about the coc 2 rep PR. Anyone who remembers when I started my log about 8 months ago I was barely getting that gripper twice with a block set on a good day. i was expecting more out of the RT b/c when i picked it up after using fgx's and the 3" rolling handle it felt like a toy but that wasn't the case. Still a 3# PR works on anything for me. Will keep pushing.

10/15/14-Pullup PR!

Weighted pull-up: up to 150# (393#) total x 1 x 2 sets!

100# x 2-4r up to 25 total

50# x 5 x 5 sets

25# x 5 x 5 sets

Bw x 10, 10, 5 for 100 total

IB3.0's pullups x 2 but then felt pain in L wrist and called it

3" rolling handle: 75# x 15 r/ea

RT: 75% holds for time: 120# LH x 19, 16 seconds, RH x 19, 24 seconds

3" rolling handle: 75# x 12 lh, 10 rh

I've been chasing that 150# weighted pull-up for awhile now. I wasn't going to max today but felt good so I tested and it worked out. My old PR was 135# on the same setup, I had to kick a little bit to get my chin over so it wasn't a perfect pull-up but I'll take it as a gym lift. Also my bw is about 5# heavier than when I did 135# so it's more like a 20# total PR.

This is gripper vid from Sunday I was pumped about. Almost 8 ccd reps on the 109# coc 2.

Awesome bro, congratulations! That is some serious strength.

Thanks brotha! Weather it will have any carryover to grip I don't know but it was fun! I think I'll go for a rep PR next. Maybe 100# x 10 or something.

I can't see how putting nearly 400 lbs of force on the hands wouldn't carry over to grip! Besides, it's important to be functionally strong and well rounded.

Red Nail x 1- felt really strong on this. I'm beginning to use this as a benchmark for how my max attempt will go. Felt good so

175kg IronGrip Bar! x 1 under 2" in about 11:30

I'm still not ready to cert but that is some awesome progress after taking a week off bending. I was wobble failing the 170kg two weeks ago and today I fought the 175kg down under 2" in about half the time.

Those rolling thunder holds smoke the hell out of the forearms! When you train RT, do you cock your wrist, or let the weight hang straight down?

I just let it hang straight down. Hows your RT coming along? I saw you've been training with the fatgripz extremes. I think that they will help a ton with your RT, mine as well. Time will tell.

I don't use the RT as much as I'd like to because it basically renders my forearms useless for the next four days afterward, but my lift has definitely gone up by a decent margin. The extremes were HUGE for my hands and i can definitely see them carrying over to RT as well as block weights!
