And I will pinch you to dust!  :laugh  :rock

:laugh Only if you do more in the upcoming event than you did in Europe. I'm using 80 or so kilos for 3-4 x 1 right now. I want my pinch back to where it was pre this years Iron Grip before I slipped a disc. It's 90-95% back now.

Based on the euros, Franky will out pinch you Mob. In fact he was only a few points behind overall. Maybe Franky will destroy you at the champion of champions...?

I'm quietly confident you'll feel little heat from me on the day. I'll be too far ahead for you to feel the warmth (as I was in the Euro ha ha). Perhap you could be Jim's other arm :tongue

squats: 19x97,5kg

I realized that I haven't done 20 reps after watching the video I took of the set... :trout

I decided to do three penalty reps (so to say) without belt after a short time out :D

So the next weight will be 100kg...

Cool, 20x100kg would be a great accomplishment IMHO considering your BW.

You were lucky I had that accident Mob. You've been spared further embarrassment.

Ask dave how much training I did for the British ;)

Nah. Why not ask how good you could have been if you'd have worked at it? Or why you wasn't allowed to go to Europe... :whistel

Resting from Grip today

Tested a 7,6mm bar DU I got from Christoph (honk):

7.6mm DU

Tried the same bar reverse style but could only kink it to 20°.

Then I went for a G8 and got approx the same kink.

Afterwards some DO bending just for fun.

Bent 5 Reds in a row and it was hard. Took me about 18mins or so.

I'm really off in DO bending right now.

Much to seldom. :blush

Actually I want to do vbar once a week, but with two major competitions coming I have some trouble to do all the events on the same level especially when there are two new events (sledge + OHDL) which need some special care. :erm

How often you training v-bar. The last entry I could find was on the 12th.

09/19/2005 Morning Session

Squats 20x90kg (20x200lb)

Listened carefully to the things I got taught.

So I:

- used no towel

- used a standard oly bar instead of the Apollons Axle (for better bar placement)

- put the bar much further away from the neck

- watched that my head is always up

- focussed on my butt :tongue

besides this I used a power belt this time since the good morning type squats of the last session had hurt my lower back a bit

Furthermore I used mini sets of 3 reps, taking 3 deep breathes between each mini sets.

So the total set duration was 1:50 min.

But:

After watching the vid I saw that many reps weren't as low as they should be even though I thought they were. Maybe due to the power belt? Maybe a mirror could help?

Two competitions? The german championships you mean?

I may just be able to enter it, but Korte told me that i won't place... Hmm, then i will beat you, and i'll be the unofficial german champion! :tongue

Nice squatting! When you get to 100kg, make another to see the improvements..

Thanks Theo!

Yes, I was indeed talking of the germans.

You want to beat me??

Yes I know, there will be no B E N D I N G at the germans. :erm

Please take into account that a strongman system will be applied.

So a dominant vbar isn't a guarantee for a victory.
