DLK Posted December 26, 2004 Author Share Posted December 26, 2004 12-25-04 Decided to mess around. Made a two hand pinch and vertical bar easy. Didn't do anything with the V bar. Stoped with two hand pinch because hards are raw and torn from block earlier in the week and did't want to make it worse. Had alot more in me. Two hand pinch 90-1 105-1 115-1 Farmer walk 205 or 215 in per hand and run with for 30 sec. Haven't doen them in over a year. Since they were made. I don't know exactly what they weight but the weight was easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLK Posted December 28, 2004 Author Share Posted December 28, 2004 12-27-04 Got together with anson and underdawg today. Everything went pretty good and anson took a couple shots at the MM0 cert. Tried to close the #3 and got closer than ever before, I'd say 1/4"-1/3". So pretty good there. Also bent a 3 ft. piece of 5/8" steel, not to bad. Hopefully I can get an elite and a MM replica soon and start KTA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLK Posted December 29, 2004 Author Share Posted December 29, 2004 (edited) 12-28-04 Did some Gms and other stuff earlier today. Worked up to a couple of easy new maxes.

PR Negatives SM-1 SM-1 SM-1 SM-1 Extinsor work Contrast bath I did alot better on the overcrushes and will have to use the ISG for left next time and maybe right. My sweep is really good because with my tries on the SM it felt like nothing and then it was like I hit a wall. The negatives with the #3 also felt alot easier. Maybe with the OC, Negatives, and choker sets I can bring my crush up dramitcally. Edited December 29, 2004 by DLK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DLK Posted January 3, 2005 Author Share Posted January 3, 2005 I fihured I'd give something a try I've seen. Speed. Felt pretty good and kinda refreshed me from yesterday's workout.

pdoire Posted January 3, 2005 Share Posted January 3, 2005 Yeah sometimes active recovery with light grippers and a little volume is just what the doctor ordered to get the kinks out and limber things up. Great job keep it up!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Negatives are feeling better and getting easier I may go up in a week or two. From here on for a week or two I am going to do just OC and negatives and then try the SM and see how easy it is or the #3 and see how far I get that.

I may have to up it again with left hand. Negatives were much easier and can almost hold #3 closed with right hand. Just felt like doing some reps with #2 after all that and still got a PR. Only thing is I think I left out a negative but no matter because 2 days I'll have to do 7 sets each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdoire Posted January 6, 2005 Share Posted January 6, 2005 Looking good DLK...volume and intensity is climbing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLK Posted January 6, 2005 Author Share Posted January 6, 2005 Thanks. I may take it to so many sets and then drop the intensity with less sets and more weight using the ISG. Kinda like Kennely does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OC and negatives are already helping, I can tell within a few workout. Still can't get anything set in my left easy except for the ISG. Hit a big PR for reps with 7 more than last time on the #2. And 25 with #1 for left. Probably couldn't done 30. Just switching it up abit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bencrush Posted January 9, 2005 Share Posted January 9, 2005 DLK, that's a great rep PR with the #2! I'd say you OWN that gripper now. Can you no set close it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLK Posted January 9, 2005 Author Share Posted January 9, 2005 Thanks man. Not sure about the no set. I can grind the handles easily but never mess with no sets, so not to sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try it for a week or 2 and see how it goes. I believe that the way I have it planned I can get more volume into the week and make it easier on me. But we'll have to see. My hands were a little sore from helping Anson's dad move some floorboards but the sets felt good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time with so much volume and it almost killed me. Negatives were easier. Especially the left. The new #2 I got is a beast. Got it from Chris on here and it is a 1992 and all steel. It is maybe a little less than my SM or even the same. Tommorow is more OC with even more sets. Hopefully I can get the job done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty good workout with grippers but starting to feel burnt out. I am trying to decide to continue with this or stop and take some rest. Dedcided to do some reps and got the #1 70 times! Really suprised with this, but I was only opening it up a small amount. But I heard the click of every rep. If I do continue with this volume I'll end up doing another 10 sets of negatives and end up editing this post later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
