bruce1337 Posted February 12, 2021 Author Share Posted February 12, 2021 HORSESHOE HAUL Nabbed a bunch of used shoes from a friend. Used shoes have the added bonus of rust and horse poop all over them, plus they're worn out in different areas. Attempted a Werkman Striker 2 (8x22.5mm) which was worn down to 7.2mm at the crux of the bend. Stopped moving close to 90 degrees. Was too tough a shoe for a first timer to attempt. Will try some easier shoes and work my way up to this one again in the future. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slippery Pete Posted February 13, 2021 Share Posted February 13, 2021 Nice to see you bending some shoes! However, people are generally staying away from used shoes since the risk of a surprise snap is bigger. I have no personal experience tough. But might be something to keep in mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad to start bending shoes. I ripped my skin on my left hand and my right hand has tendon pain and inflammation. So id say it was a great first horseshoe session Some are worn down at the crux and others are worn around the legs. And risk of snapping adds more excitement to the bend but ill let you know if any of them try to kill me Edited February 13, 2021 by bruce1337 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce1337 Posted March 1, 2021 Author Share Posted March 1, 2021 Been goofing around with steel bending last couple weeks. Now its time to start training seriously again. Thickbar, SB, pinch, and strict style bending. I will only log my main lifts from now on, cant be bothered writing up the entire workout Inch trainer 53.5kg: 1, 1, 1, 2 43.5kg (wrist curl): 2x2 33.5kg (wrist curl): 3x5 Was very surprised at this lift. My previous max was 52kg so hitting this PR for multiple reps and sets was a huge milestone especially since my thickbar has been lacking 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruce1337 Posted March 23, 2021 Author Share Posted March 23, 2021 7mm x 4.5" nail iso crush finished 2x7mm x 210mm nails taped together DO finished, cheated a little on the kink and after the sweep to get out of awkward positions. My goal will be to complete this properly without assistance. Gave one of my red nails to @David_wigren and he reversed it in singles with what looked like sub maximal effort. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David_wigren Posted March 24, 2021 Share Posted March 24, 2021 Always fun to train with you brother! That double 7mm bend was really impressive! That has to be WAY WAAY harder than a red nail/bastard. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But full size I think only the kink is super hard and awkward. My crush is just weak soon im gonna have to attempt the 8mm stainless again properly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruce1337 Posted March 28, 2021 Author Share Posted March 28, 2021 (edited) Bending Horrido A2 7": Reverse (doubles): 10 degrees. I have a long way to go until I complete this. For now its a great ISO bar One IMP: Small wobble and then my skin tore. I need to do volume with minimal padding (e.g. 1/2 IMPs) to build skin toughness DHWOG 158k (12mm x 19.5"): Barehand attempt, did not move. Was stupid and painful attempt Edited March 28, 2021 by bruce1337 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruce1337 Posted April 13, 2021 Author Share Posted April 13, 2021 Horrido 8.8 snap. I had failed to bend this in the 5 min time limit. So with some rest and technique adjustment I was able to finish it off in another 5 min with much better movement. 8mm x 180mm HRS reverse. 1/4" x 6" Grade 8 (207k Horne) wraps touching attempt. I did this DOH since my reverse is not strong enough to move it at the moment. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
