DuTCH Posted June 9, 2005 Author Share Posted June 9, 2005 Thanks dadams... I thought your name was unknown...? choker set to 2", managed to get 3 closes! That was good, but i had to fight a bit... I will let this stay for awhile in this set.. Lefty is getting better and better.. after the #3, i did no set closes with #1. RH 30 no-set reps with #1 LH 20 no-set reps with #1 i couldn't do the JAG on the #3, so i will put it on #1 for the no-set closes.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DuTCH Posted June 14, 2005 Author Share Posted June 14, 2005 Aah, back to grippers again.. After all the mess that happened with my girl yesterday, i tried to go back at the grippers again.. Still, next week is another meet and i can't go there lookin' like a nancy Like Dan suggested, i opened up the choker.. But, more than 2inch, and the choker slides off, so i thought, why not a credit card set today? Warm up #1-BH 10 reps #2-BH 2 reps #3-RH 2" choker, miss #3- RH CC set, missed (no chalk) (i knew i could if i tried a bit harder) #3-RH CC set, chalked up, closed!!

DuTCH Posted June 19, 2005 Author Share Posted June 19, 2005 (edited) man, you should catch up, because you CAN! Franky, lefty i cam about 1cm away of closing #3. But due to bending my hands are ALWAYS sore lefty..... Can't train as often as i should. Edited June 19, 2005 by DuTCH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dadams Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 dutch what are you currently bending, like blues, or g8's??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuTCH Posted June 20, 2005 Author Share Posted June 20, 2005 dadams, what i am bending? Pfff, i am ashamed to tell you.. I bend 6mmx160mm that is 6mm, is the thickness, and 160mm is around 6,5" in length.. So that is not good. Very bad, to say the least. In my defense, i started around 3 months ago..

DuTCH Posted June 21, 2005 Author Share Posted June 21, 2005 grippers monday: warm up #1 2-4 singles #2 choker set to parallel and di 8 closes Lefty almost there BH a bit of strapholds baby reps with #1: LH 100reps RH 180 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuTCH Posted June 28, 2005 Author Share Posted June 28, 2005 Well, lots of things happening. Just had a good competition in swiss. I almost beat Jim Wylie his V-bar record. I am now 2nd on the list. Grippers i did good, closed the #3, and even did a cc close afterwards. I did the SM righty, almost getting the GM, but not yet... V-bar, went just fine.. Two hand pinch, it was ok. Didn't expect much of it, Franky already had it, before we started.... OH lift, first time. Felt awkward. I think the handle was too high, and had to stand on wooden planks. I think i could do better with some right training. Bending. What's there to say. I suck at it. I will train this hard, but it goes slow. It's just not my cup of tea... Tonight i did some grippers again. Felt ok. 3 creditcard closes RH 5 attempts at the #3 LH I sent a mail to Strossen. It took a week, but he found a witness. Next week i will certify on the #3, at the Strongest Dutchman Contest. The witness will be Marcel Mostert! He is an official at the IFSA strong man contests, and is one of the founders of IFSA..... It's really cool! He invited me to come over, and get certified. I am a bit nervous, because maybe they will have me perform that feat in front of some big guys.... But hey, if they laugh, i will just hand them that #3!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankyBoy Posted June 28, 2005 Share Posted June 28, 2005 Two hand pinch, it was ok. Didn't expect much of it, Franky already had it, before we started.... ← Good luck on your cert. You proved more than once that you own the #3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
burkhardmacht Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 Congrats for Your results in the comp - especially the v-bar! Good luck for the certification (You don't need it)! Your gripper strenght is very impressive! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DuTCH Posted June 29, 2005 Author Share Posted June 29, 2005 well, it's time to get serious, i'll make a plan of attack for the euros... Grippers, i want a 3.0 close left, and a 3.2 or so for RH... Two hand pinch, goal is to get at least 90kg.. I lift on my wooden block 45kg, and that transferred to 77kg last weekend. So on my own thing i should lift at least 60kg Vertical bar, break Jim Wylie his record, get around 170kg. OH lift, i hope to get at least 250-260 both hands... Don't know how to train for it yet, but i'll figure it out.. Bending, well, at home i have some very hard nails, i want to bend at least a hard 6,5mm or so... Grippers every other day Pinch 3 times a week. Almost every other day... Vertical, one time a week, wednesdays.. OH lift, didn't figure it out, but probably once a week Bending, high volume once or twice a week... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
