deaner Posted December 1, 2006 Author Share Posted December 1, 2006 11/30 grippers tx10, #1x5 warmups Rb240n 1/3 right, 0/3 left <-- this is sad but true Rb300n slow neg/ #1 OC Levering madness began and made up for crappy gripper day, my forearms and wrists are fried, maybe try this "slim" style bending next time I do sledgework, I tried a timber tie lightly wrapped at the end of the levering and didn't get it, thats tough, should be able to do at least that, I am really interested in pure wrist bending, the vid of Tommy Heslep getting the g5 with the slim style was f***ing insane, probably coolest bending feat I've ever seen.

deaner Posted December 6, 2006 Author Share Posted December 6, 2006 12/4 Grippers SM failure, Rb240n got 2/3 right, zippo left Levering, Slim style bending 3/16" stuff bent back and forth just working wrist and technique til they broke, did 3 of them Roller 50# 1x3 My grippers need work, but do I really have the desire, they just don't get me all that excited anymore, just plain boring, give me my blocks over them damn grippers anyday. (easy to be negative about something I suck at I guess..) Hope I get that 50# hex soon. 12/5 Shoulder health stuff, played with my kids new "elepant fun" game til exhausted, finished with intense pizza pinches, tearing, and chewing.

deaner Posted December 7, 2006 Author Share Posted December 7, 2006 12/6 blocks 30x5, 35x3, 40 x 2,2,1 rt 1,1,1 left 35 x10 rt/ 9 left 30 cleans x 8 both Thick roller 60 1x3 neckwork Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deaner Posted December 10, 2006 Author Share Posted December 10, 2006 12/10 sunday Blocks 30x5, 35x5, 40 3x1 bends (strict) 3/16 x7, 6 warmups 40d fail, these are tough done this way, too short! 6" TT fail these are tough too, when you're too weak to bend them! Theres a reason 60d bends were at one time world class.. Anyone who thinks that bending reds and beyond proves wrist strength is wrong, here I am failing on timber ties and 40ds! I have never seen a red bent with purely wrists and really doubt that I ever will, this brookfield style maybe, but has anyone ever seen it?

deaner Posted January 2, 2007 Author Share Posted January 2, 2007 1/1/07 Blocks 30# tosses 40#x1, 30#toss, 30# by the face x1 each hand 35# x5, 30# toss I like them tosses a bunch Sledgework xlots of hard sledgework did a few front levers off the floor with 8# sledge (long handle) with fist on floor, don't know what this is called but it is easier than regular front lever, either way I've never got that before and it wasn't real hard for my left, little tough for the right I plan to do the BBB if they accept my asking to join in so my training will reflect it more.

smp76 Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 What no gripper training? You slack ass. I am going to have to come over and borrow some of your many grippers to motivate your arse. Block weights look good though. -Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deaner Posted January 18, 2007 Author Share Posted January 18, 2007 Sean- No grippers, I just can't get motivated for them like blockweights and other stuff, you are welcome to borrow some any time, that way at least they will get used and not just rust up. You got anyone else interested enough for us to have a little informal grip contest sometime? I still wanna have one locally but I just can't get anyone else interested enough. I'd like to see vbar, blockweight farmers walk, and levering as events, and I'd bet you'd want grippers, bending, so theres 5 events, we just gotta get the bodies and some trophies and lots of good beer together. Maybe no trophies, but definately lotsa beer! I might be able to get some beer from Midnight Sun, a sponsor type thing. 1/17 Vbar 155x1, 190x1, 210x1, 225 5x1 Thicker vbar (between standard and loading pin) 100x1, 135x1, 170 3x1 Should have gone higher on vbar, just wanted to do some singles with moderate weight, but my grip on the bar felt so good, but I showed restraint. I like vbar but still doubt if there is any value in it other than a good next day after a good workout workout., but my forearms are sore today so it musta done something.

deaner Posted January 19, 2007 Author Share Posted January 19, 2007 1/19 Blocks: 30# toss, 40# single x3 of each YEAH!! These are great! the alternating of these 2 makes it seem like you are really crushing the block, tosses gotta be the best or real darn close to the best grip excersise out there. Thick DB deads 58x8, 78x5, 89x2, 78x8, 69x11 Front lever/Rear levers + other top secret sledge levering til popeye got jealous and gave me 50 bucks to put the hammer down. And now for 2 days to let the guns grow.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
