lifesnotfair Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Mobster I assume the bar used for the 1HDL is perfectly straight? Because last year I seem to recall you doing 180 without a hook on a more bent bar, and now you're doing less weight with a hook ?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobsterone Posted February 23, 2011 Author Share Posted February 23, 2011 Nah. Same bar as last time. I have a way to go yet. I worked to 220kg on the same bar last year. However, I'm just looking for 200kg on a straight bar come exhibition time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mobsterone Posted March 9, 2011 Author Share Posted March 9, 2011 Insane RT-numbers!!! When are you gonna take the world record away from Felix? Regards from cold Norway. I won't know until nearer the time what my top efforts will be. I WILL exceed 140-kilos on the handle I am using at the mo. Basically I have two. One older and more worn and one newer and more freely spinning. Sam Solimi brought an almost new handle down last year (the one now sold by Ironmind). To buy one here is £90.00 or $160+. I'm not spending that for nothing. Having tried the new handle and pulled 276lbs after warming up (is on youtube) when Mark's best effort on the new handle was 271lbs I feel confident that using my older handle (closer in feel to the latest version) I can do well. However, it's worth adding I'll be working with UltimateGrip all day Saturday closing HG300's and HG350's through the day. I'll also be required to demonstrate, qualify and explain the RT event to those competing on the Sunday. I'll need to be very careful not to have tired my peak level strength out doing all that and look like a wiener come the time to do my best. Wednesday Coached Naz and Jacek. No sign, thus far, of Greg A. Back / Heavy sets on first two movements v sloppy LPD 70-kilos x 10 reps, 110-kilos x 8 reps, swapped to v-handle and did crappy reps so switched back to usual handle and did 150-kilos x 8 ugly reps Low Rows 80-kilos x 8 reps, 105-kilos x 8 reps, piss poor with 140-kilos much better when I wore a belt 140-kilos x 6 reps Straight arm pushdowns 40-kilos x 15 reps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
