Weakman Posted November 3, 2020 Author Share Posted November 3, 2020 3/11 Wristroller - 4 set Fatgrip Extreme Curls - 3 set Wristcurls - Hard to find a good size/weighted plate. Also hard to read my notation. LH: 2,5 kg x 15 10 kg x 3 + 2,5 kg x 10 10 kg x 3 + 2,5 kg x 10 10 kg x 3 + 2,5 kg x 10 RH: 2,5 kg x 15 10 kg x 3 + 2,5 kg x 10 10 kg x 3 + 2,5 kg x 10 10 kg x 3 + 2,5 kg x 10 Comments: Mainly conditioning. Also nice to do some wristwork when I´m not currently bending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weakman Posted November 5, 2020 Author Share Posted November 5, 2020 5/11 Plate curls - Finally a nice plate to curl! The size is between a normal 5 kg plate other normal plates (10, 15, 20, 25 kg). Perfect size for me to do more strict curls than usual. A normal sized 10 kg plate will break my wrist. 10 kg x 5 5 5 Fatgrip Extreme Reverse Curls - 3 set Thumb pump - Nice way to hit thumb. My thumb doesnt like thumb screws so this is a perfect way to hit the thumb without going to hard on it. Thanks @mcalpine1986 for inspiration! Comments: Didn´t do grip yesterday so I just had to today. Maybe a bit to hard since my plan was to kill #3 tomorrow. We´ll see what happens. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weakman Posted November 6, 2020 Author Share Posted November 6, 2020 6/11 CoC #3 (152) 20 mm block - Didn't felt 100% today, fatigue and some other awkward feeling but hell yeah I did got some power anyway. Last set was 30 mm block. LH: 1 1 0 1 0 0 RH: 1 1 1 1 1 1 Barbell fingertips 3 set Comments: Hopefully 7 training days this week. I think I'll skip grip tomorrow though and go for some fatbar on sunday. I'll do an effort to find my nails this weekend, maybe not bend but at least find them. Or else I order some new ones, not sure if I go IM again or maybe try FBBC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fave exercise Fits me perfect. I need something dynamic for the thumb/pinch and this did not cause me any pain. Hopefully there is some progress with the plate curls so I can develop some wrist strength. I really need to step up my bending. Not sure if I can keep up with you and pancho though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weakman Posted November 8, 2020 Author Share Posted November 8, 2020 7/11 Wristcurls - Nice with some higher reps but not sure is this is beneficial though. Sometimes a session is not complete if not doing grip. 4 set 8/11 RH - The RH is really going down the drain at the moment. LH: 65 kg x 1 60 kg x 5 5 5 RH: 65 kg x 1 60 kg x 5 5 5 Comments: Very good training week besides todays failure. Found my nails and cleaned of my 155 rgc rated #3. In other words some battles to win next week. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plate curls will help wrist strength for bending although its a different kind of wrist strength. Ive never tried bending but ive seen People who can do amazing bending things cant plate curl a 10kg plate so it is a different kind of stress. Remember with plate curls you need a strong thumb and good bicep strength as well. For my weight my pretty strong on biceps work. Im aiming for 10 reps with the 15kg plate. 6reps so far for me. I need to do 10 to beat a guy on insta. Me and him are in a race to 10 reps. Keep them up though. They are a real money love. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weakman Posted November 9, 2020 Author Share Posted November 9, 2020 9/11 CoC #3 (152) 30 mm block - A bit to bold but, but maybe maybe my 162 rated filled #3 will go down this year. LH: 1 1 0 0 RH: 1 0 0 0 1 H Platepinch (2 x 15 kg) - Too much chicken mentality with RH, so afraid to drop it.

Weakman Posted November 11, 2020 Author Share Posted November 11, 2020 10/11 Wristroller - Forward and reverse 4 set Thumb pump 3 set 11/11 DU - Did not feel good. I think I lost some feel for it when not bending. I will build that up again! Yellow - 2 Blue - 0 Platecurls - RH is close to limit now. LH: 10 kg x 6 6 5 RH: 10 kg x 6 6 5 Comments: Body feels good after 10 training days in a row. Bending did not though. Tomorrow is rest (gripwise at least) and friday its time to kill my 155.

Weakman Posted November 13, 2020 Author Share Posted November 13, 2020 (edited) 12/11 Pronation/Supination Levering - Not done this exercise since my prebending last spring. Feel very alive today. 3 set 13/11 CoC #3 (152) - Lol. Difficulties with grip; Grippers < Gripper with block < Gripfeat on movie. 6 set 1 H Platepinch (2 x 15 kg) - Didn't even get air under the 2 x 20 kg plates. Raged out and doubled up. LH: 10 10 5 RH: 6 7 5 Pronation/Supination Levering - Feels so good. 3 set Comments: Tried to shot a movie to see if I'm ready for the MM0 or if there is anything to work on. The film was shit (you see nothing!) and this totally (bad word) up my gripsession. Lost all focus, no Oscar for me this year.

Weakman Posted November 16, 2020 Author Share Posted November 16, 2020 14/11 1 H Platepinch (3 x 5 kg) - Just playing around. Even though I don't have the strength for 4 x 5 kg yet that width will just kill my thumb. LH: 1 1 1 RH: 1 1 1 15/11 RH - Really good! Lots of air under both 70 kg and 72,5 kg. Not sure of all numbers, this was way out of my comfort zone. Looking forward to see the result of the "Hard to Handle" episodes regarding RH. Both my handles are in the comp so maybe I can do a RT estimate. LH: 70 kg x 1 72,5 kg x 0 0 67,5 kg x 3 2 1 65 kg x X X X RH: 70 kg x 0 0 0 67,5 kg x 2 1 0 65 kg x X X X DO - Still that stupid blue that doesn't move! Yellow x 1 Blue x 0 0 0 16/11 CoC #3 (152) 20 mm block- Common, this was shit! Was actually thinking of doing doubles. LH: 1 0 1 0 0 RH: 1 1 0 0 0 Wristcurl - No reason, just addiction. 3 set Comments: Was about to write something of my magnificent ability to recover but this today didn't go well. Not sure if this was a power failure or just bad settings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weakman Posted November 18, 2020 Author Share Posted November 18, 2020 18/11 Platecurls - Not the usual plate. I think smaller diameter but a really annoying edge. Not as strict as previous session. LH: 10 kg x 5 5 5 RH: 10 kg x 5 5 5 RH - Had some pain in my arm after last RH session so I just wanted to make sure everything is ok. Did not intend to got that hard today. LH: 60 kg x 5 5 5 RH: 60 kg x 2 3 3 Reverse curls 3 set Comments: Training this early kills me but at least I get the job done. Gym seems pretty crowded at night.

LH: 1 1 0 0 0 RH: 1 1 1 1 0 Pronation/Supination Levering - Still exercise pain since last time. 3 set Comments: Think I need a day or two off. Lets see, going for that PR on the RH on sunday!

Weakman Posted November 21, 2020 Author Share Posted November 21, 2020 21/11 RH - Not as good as last week. That 72,5 kg will go up 2020! LH: 72,5 kg x 0 67,5 kg x 3 2 1 65 kg x X X X RH: 70 kg x 0 67,5 kg x 1 1 0 65 kg x X X X DO - Took only 4 sessions to take down that first blue lol. I see people bend 10+ nails per session. Maybe I need to increase volume (double up?) to start progressing? Yellow x 1 Blue x 1 1 1 Reverse curls 3 set Comments: Maybe should have waited one day more or so for the RH. Descent weights anyway. Very low on nails now, need to cut up more steel or order. I fear that order from IM thought will take until after christmas to get.

Weakman Posted November 22, 2020 Author Share Posted November 22, 2020 22/11 IM Blockbuster - Solid lifts except the max lifts. Got air but not really taking off.

Gripwise it will be a couple off days off now, been hitting heavy lifts for almost 25 days in a row. Maybe something to just bleed through the muscles (I think any weightlifting will work as good as light grip work) but no hard workouts. I´ll hit grippers again in the end of week, hopefully with a bit more of success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weakman Posted November 26, 2020 Author Share Posted November 26, 2020 26/11 Wristcurls - Focusing on keeping the fingers close to the plate so I don't get that stress on my fingers. LH: 10 kg x 5 5 5 5 kg x 10 10 10 RH: 10 kg x 5 5 3 5 kg x 10 10 10 RH curls 3 set Reverse curls 3 set Comments: Been resting 3 days so tomorrow I think I´ll go another round on the grippers. Ordered 225 nails as well so now there is no excuse to not step up that bending. Gonna throw up my MM0 pre attempt as well, asap I got an social media account. Not sure if YT or Instagram is to prefer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weakman Posted November 27, 2020 Author Share Posted November 27, 2020 27/11 CoC #3 (155) - Not sure of all closes but for sure no MM set. Touching closing hand/arm with other hand. Not assisting but not ok to pass the MM rules. LH: 1 1 0 1 RH: 0 0 0 0 Comments: No use to use block today since I could feel the power was not there. Hopefully feeling better tomorrow, its time to for IM hub max! With the 155 so hard I think the close of my filed 162 wont happens this year. Anyway, wish list for December; IM Hub +1,25 kg (both hands) - Don't remember last time I tried, this is a black spot. IM Blockbuster + 1,25 kg (both hands) - Got air last time, not feeling 100% so this can actually go. Silarukov 60 mm handle +2,5 kg (both hands) - Changed my grip a bit using the other handle hopefully this is paid of here. CoC #3 (162, filed) (any hand) - Maybe I can recharge my grip with some rest, atm this feat looks very far away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weakman Posted December 3, 2020 Author Share Posted December 3, 2020 3/12 1 H Platepinch (2 x 15 kg) - Was heavy today, tried to go for 5 on RH but dropped plate. LH: 5 5 5 RH: 4 4 4 Wristroller - Was suppose to do levering but the bar was gone! 3 set Comments: Rested yesterday but fingertips are a bit sore, from platecurls I think.

Weakman Posted December 4, 2020 Author Share Posted December 4, 2020 4/12 CoC #3 (152) 30 mm block - Super solid closes! First set with 20 mm others with 30 mm. LH: 1 1 1 1 RH: 1 1 1 1 Comments: Hell yeah, after some bad sessions I might have pulled of my best (rather short though) gripper session ever. I didn't stress the set and the gripper sat very good in my hand. Have had some problems setting the gripper lately, especially in my right hand. The width for set 3 and 4 was way wider than 30 mm, I would say close to or even 40 mm +. Probably due to the nice set the closes where even not really hard. It is sessions like this that make one believe that the cert is actually possible one day in a galaxy far far away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weakman Posted December 6, 2020 Author Share Posted December 6, 2020 5/12 Pronation/Supination Levering - Feels good. Need to work those wrists while waiting for my nails to arrive. 3 set 6/12 IM Blockbuster - Didn't even move 20 kg! Really weak today and after some tries thumb also started to complain. Not a fan of building a scrapyard with hundreds of handles but a 50 mm block could be a nice investment. 3" is just to much to handle, and I don't even have small hands! LH: 20 kg x 0 0 0 16,25 kg x 5 3 RH: 20 kg x 0 0 0 16,25 kg x 5 2 RH - This was war. Was about to write ok then I realized that this was worse than last week. And I called last week disaster lol.

Weakman Posted December 7, 2020 Author Share Posted December 7, 2020 (edited) 7/12 CoC #3 (152) 30 mm block - Good! Same as last week, only 20 mm block on first set. Solid setting, but not the same power and setwidth as in the close as last week. LH: 1 1 1 1 RH: 1 1 1 1 Platepinch (1 x 50 kg) - This was not according to plan but I just had to try a lift. I think RH is good to go also but I was in a rush and doing it on wooden floor so I was a bit careful. One smooth surface and one with an edge. LH: 1 RH: 0 Comments: Struggeling whether I I should go for one or two gripper sessions a week. This month is only about hitting a new pr and there are some possibilities: #3 (152) 20 mm block 3 reps #3 (155) 30 mm block 1 rep #3 (162) filed 1 rep As for the moment I think this is the only pr I'm able to hit this year.

Weakman Posted December 9, 2020 Author Share Posted December 9, 2020 8/12 Thumbpump - Used two different bands, one a bit harder. 6 set 9/12 1H Platepinch (1 x 50 kg) - Finally after some tries it got up. Now I only need to hold it for time. LH: 1 RH: 1 Pronation/Supination Levering - Not very nice, using a bad loading pin that put force on my thumbs. 4 set Comments: Saving up some power for friday, think I'm gonna hit grippers again!
