Jonathan McMillan Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 Nothing like a bought of fud poisoning, glad to see your on the rebound Jonathan!! I contracted samonella one year and it took over a year before I felt "normal". Ever since I seem to be prone to GI infections.

underdawg Posted January 21, 2005 Author Share Posted January 21, 2005 I'm still not eating like normal, of course that's not necessarily a bad thing. All-in-all I'm as good as new now though, thanks. Samonella would definitely suck. There was an outbreak of it here one time (if ever in NC stay away from the shady-looking BBQ joints), and it screwed a few people up big time. Glad everything's back to normal for you now man.

Jonathan McMillan Posted February 4, 2005 Share Posted February 4, 2005 Jonathan, Can you describe how you perform your negatives on the RT? Thanks!! Jon@han Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underdawg Posted February 6, 2005 Author Share Posted February 6, 2005 No sweat Jonathan. All I do is set up like a normal lift, then wrap my off hand around the hand that's holding the handle (from the opposite side) and lift. Let go with the off hand at the top of the lift. The biggest thing I've found is not to go overboard with the weights. Something that is too heavy and will just rip immediately from your hand defeats the pupose. 10lbs or so above your max is plenty.

underdawg Posted February 8, 2005 Author Share Posted February 8, 2005 About half-way through Sat. my back started killing me. Don't know what I did. It's still a little sore, and I have some soreness in my right buttock. Anyone have any idea what the cause might be? I honestly can't remember doing anything to cause this, and as you can see from my Sat. workout it was far from a heavy back session.

Jonathan McMillan Posted February 9, 2005 Share Posted February 9, 2005 Nice work on the handstand pushups!! Sciatic nerve comes to mind? Are you using a broom handle for your bodyweight goodmornings or are you simply placing your hands behind your head? Jon@han Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underdawg Posted February 9, 2005 Author Share Posted February 9, 2005 Just put my hands behind my hand. Seems to have worked, no more tightness or soreness, but my hammies have been shot for the past couple of days. I'm loving the handstand pushups, I think they're really gonna help my press and I can do them anywhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anson Posted February 11, 2005 Share Posted February 11, 2005 Jonathan, i havn't checked this part of the Board in a while, so i just found this thread. i've really enjoyed reading it, man you've got some great workouts here! great variety. were you able to play those workout videos i made of us a couple months ago? i havn't done much grip work the last week, i got too crazy with my big thumb clamp and kind of hyperextended my thumbs, stupid we gotta workout soon, i want to try doing the handstand pushups on your paralletes. how much does this increase the ROM? keep up the good work, i'll look forward to checking out your workouts from now on.

underdawg Posted February 13, 2005 Author Share Posted February 13, 2005 Thanks Anson. You better heal that thumb up, your Blob is sitting here waiting for you to come lift it. Most of the videos worked. The paralettes allow me to get a full ROM on the handstand push ups.

anson Posted February 13, 2005 Share Posted February 13, 2005 Nice work! How do you do the bear crawl? the thumbs have gotten a lot better, soon i want to start back on the blobs. You must be pretty close to pulling the big one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
underdawg Posted February 14, 2005 Author Share Posted February 14, 2005 Getting closer every day. I did the bear crawls like we used to do them in football practice, just basically moving as fast as I can on my palms and feet. Don't know if this is what most people consider a bear crawl or not.
