RTvG Posted November 16, 2012 Author Share Posted November 16, 2012 Fact 1. Don't set your goals too low, it's bad taste and waisted effort Fact 2. A good set is a good close, or two Fact 3. Lvl 17 mms 2 reps! Aiming for a close on lvl 17 before end of this year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RTvG Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 PR'd on the stub today, 21.3kg Some topz numbers are rising steadily, some are stationary, and some seem to go down.. Hope everything fits when comp is there! http://youtu.be/EJDvNX7GQBY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTvG Posted January 16, 2013 Author Share Posted January 16, 2013 Another topz that upped a bit, from 14.8kg to 15.9! Used various grippers to microload. Ivan mentioned this practical thing once and it's definitely a good advice!

RoCa Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 WD2 black spring,singles level 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10, missed 11 Do you like that WD2? Is that a good workout for your wrists and forearms? I am not a very keen bender but I was planning to buy WD2 and use that as one of the tools to make my forearms stronger... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTvG Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 Hi, Yes, I like the WD. It's a great tool for lower arm / wrist strength. It's a beast though and it takes a small learning / getting used to curve. But the higher levels you can close, the more addictive it becomes!

RTvG Posted January 19, 2013 Author Share Posted January 19, 2013 Shallow hub day today. Good pull on 27.4kg (PR) and got 28kg airborne for about 20cm before it slipped through my fingers. 28kg is possible really soon! http://youtu.be/zzsriMyyt88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTvG Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 Hubbing is progressing nicely. 28kg, might need a cm or two more, might not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoCa Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Hubbing is progressing nicely. 28kg, might need a cm or two more, might not. Very nice! Im way behind you. Started shallow hub yesterday. How much is your IM Hub? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTvG Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 My IM hub is terrible! Slick like an eal. I can lift 20kg plates with large loadingpin and IM hub easily, more gets tricky. Haven't practised it in a long while. Mainly focussing on the topz! Hubbing is progressing nicely. 28kg, might need a cm or two more, might not. Very nice! Im way behind you.

RoCa Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 (edited) Ok, so totally probably around 23-24kg? Im just trying to figure out what I should lift with shallow hub. Last week I lifted 24,05kg (plates+loading pin+ Im hub). So with little practice my shallow hub should be at least that 24,05kg.... My IM hub is terrible! Slick like an eal.

RTvG Posted January 28, 2013 Author Share Posted January 28, 2013 When you hit 24kg on shallow hub at first touch, that's very good. First time I practised with it, i made it to 23 and some. Now almost a year later I hit 28kg for an (almost?) full pull. Just checked the IM hub, with a bit tired fingers still managed 24.5kg total. Youll do great RoCa!

RTvG Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 Submitted a GHP level 7 certification attempt today. Further did vulcan and TSG work Tools used: GHP7, CoC3, Ext handle BBGE and V2. I neglected the TSG's for quite some time, but still came back stronger, especially in the wider set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geralt Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Cool to hear! My logic mind says that if you found it good enough to send in, it's a good one! Than you should be the first Dutchman on the list haha Going to join you soon, I've got my eyes on the CCS first. Need to get it out of my system. Less seems to be more regarding grippers. Should've known that a bit earlier Maybe a double cert in the future! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTvG Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 The CCS is a bridge too far for me yet, but Ill gladly join you in that mission! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
