Well, I got KTA today and am hoping to start it tomorrow. Looks pretty darn intense but hopefully I can follow through the whole thing and make some darn good gains... :D

J-Man my number #1 Fan :laugh

If you spend 1/10th the time on KTA as you do in the chat room you could close the number 4 in a week. :ohmy

Just kidd'in Buddy,

I would say I wish you Luck, but we both know LUCK is when PREPARATION meets OPPORTUNITY! :rock

Your a dedicated person and have a great passion for all things grip so I am sure you will be grinding that #2 CoC faster than you even imagined and you will be on the quest with the masses - Charging uphill towards the #3.

This log will mostly be for my progress, but after I finish the program I will probably go back to bending and some serious pinching! (yeah right, who am I kidding, my pinch is way to weak now to be considered serious! :yikes)

Did KTA for first time yesterday. IT didn't seem that bad, but it was only the first day. Today was pretty good. I can feel it a little, my hands are tired, but it feels good.

Also decided to do some training blob work with my 17.5lb York... do it while I still can. :D I also did some light levering with my homemade heavy hammer.

KTA is going great so far...of course, its only the 4th day! haha :happy\

Before I did KTA I attempted a 60d nail that I got from Lowe's...I wasn't really that serious about bending it, but it started to kink so I decided to go for it... :yikes

Probably will seriously lay of most everything else except for grippers though. Its been fairly easy so far, but once the volume starts getting added on its gonna get much harder I assume...

Anyways...will keep ya'll updated! ;)

KTA went well today. Im glad tomorrow is rest day. For some reason I decided to bend some today, and it will probably be last the intense bending session for a while.

I bent:

1 1/4" X 6.5" HRS

2 1/4" X 6" HRS

3 Yellow equivalents

7 blue equivalents

Now my hands are kind of sore... :laugh

KTA stands for Kinney Training Adapted. It is curious that the acronym isn't spelled out, even though you have to pay for the damn program! Ah, well...

Ok, so many of you know I F'ed up with KTA. I missed week 2 and was planning on starting over last week, but decided to focus on bending for a little while. Today I did some bending. A 60d session. I bent all the 60d common nails I had. 14 of them. I put a pic of all of them in the gallery.

Anyways, next session I plan on either cutting some down to 5.75" and 5.5" and maybe even a little lower or doing move 60d volume, probably 20-30...you guys give your input. I know some of you like volume and some like less volume and more max bends.

Check the pic in the gallery...
