steve0 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I'm in for giving this a shot. Wondering if doing light gripper work for active recovery would be counter productive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grind Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I'm interested in this program but the link is dead. Does someone have a link or a copy of this program for me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JaredWith1R Posted June 16, 2015 Share Posted June 16, 2015 I didn't check the date on this until halfway through. Bummer there are no results to check out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterSweden Posted June 21, 2015 Share Posted June 21, 2015 I went from around 70kg 1rm to 90kg 1rm with two rounds of this program. Im currently doing another round of this, with slight changes. Trying to beat 100kg on RT this year! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam Trott Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 Could someone who has a copy of the routine post it here or upload it somewhere if possible? I would really like to read it but the link it dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist of Fury Posted May 26, 2016 Share Posted May 26, 2016 I've tried it. it didn't work out so well for me. Baseline strength went up a few kilos but I didn't get a peak. To be honest though, I used kilos instead of pounds and didn't adjust, just went with the numbers and that was probably not so smart, probably overtrained with too much weight that way. I will try it again and do it properly sometime when I feel motivated. If someone want to try it, just send me a PM with your mail and I'll send it to you.

Liam Trott Posted June 23, 2016 Share Posted June 23, 2016 I would like to try it, or at least to read the program for some training ideas. It would be great if you could PM me with it. Sorry for the late response, I didn't tick the notify me of replies box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
db2000 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 (edited) Sorry guys, another bump bringing a long dead thread to life again. I would be very keen to see this program. Anyone on this forum have a copy of it, or clues on who to contact? I was going to contact who I think was the author of it on facebook (as listed in Jedds post)...but I feel a little bit creepy doing so (also I am not sure its him) Also PeterSweden who has used the program hasn't been on here since 2016 From what I can piece together its something like 3 sets of 10 3 times a week with 75% Edited September 20, 2018 by db2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fist of Fury Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Here's the program: https://anonfiles.com/o5l2X7hab8/Rolling_Thunder_htm It's in HTM-format so you can open it with a web browser. All web browsers might not work so try another if it doesn't work for you the first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corefire Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 this is just a simple linear progression like in powerlifting. in case you can adapt every form you can find. most people have good results with classic 108% plans over 8 weeks with starting high frequency medium loads and 1% more load every week to the end with heavy singles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me exactly so, but the very big jump from working loading to single is introduced. I'd make a hazard that this is an example of the linear progression (not the best approach) to be applied for newbie grip athletes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist of Fury Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 The + sets is cardio. I remember when I did this I started with like 50 reps. I just fell to the floor, it totally wiped me out! When I got to the later stage my arms were dead, could definitely not max out, I was weaker than when I started. After a few weeks of rest I tried again and I think I gained around 2-3 kg's on my 1RM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NealB Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 (edited) The rolling thunder has beem killing me for years. I've been stuck for quite some time now. I might give this a try. Edited September 24, 2018 by NealB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
