I just can't win with these people. Sledge levering felt strong. I think I will start doing these again since I can't DU bend because I hurt myself on the 60D's I bent a while back and I'm still not healed up. Grip is getting stronger! Note: the no handed one arm hangs are like the no handed one arm chins at beastskills.com Edited February 11, 2007 by Ivarboneless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivarboneless Posted February 12, 2007 Author Share Posted February 12, 2007 Hard day of training today, I really got after it.

I need to focus more on my L strength and dragon flags will add a high tension addition to my daily routine. I set a new PR in total handstand pushups, it just kind of happened I wasn't really pushing it. I think sometime this summer I will try and break 100 and 200 in a day. Iron Cross really fried the biceps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivarboneless Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 Wes you are a freaky beast doing 2 finger MM1 closes! Armwrestling club today.....undefeated Hand: 10X1 #1 no set 3X3 #1 no set 1X3 inverted #1 no set 1X1 #2 wider // (RH) #2 attempts, missed inverted attempts (LH) 3X1 #1 CCS 1X12 #1 CCS (RH) 1X9 #1 CCS (LH) 1X4 #1 CCS (LH) see armwrestling Armwrestling: Armwrestled for an hour at armwrestling club. Arms are sore now. Took my #2.5 closing friend and everyone else...undefeated. I armwrestled a lot of peeps during school as well, not really too much challenge. One dude suprised me with the strength of his left arm but I held it at about 45degrees, despite his leaning on it, and promptly reversed the direction and pinned him. Pretty much chilling today, I want to have a good gymnastics practice tomorrow. I am growing impatient with this race to the #2, I am going to keep plugging until the end, but I would really rather train climbing, rafters, and other climbing/armwrestling things. Some chick at school grabbed my butt while we were having armwrestling practice, "I like that butt." Almost threw me off....Valentines day is tomorrow girl, wait 24hrs .

lifesnotfair Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Of all your excercises, which one works your butt the most? This is probably the gayest question I'll ever ask, but seriously, what is the best excercise for the butt? Is it enough with deadlifts/squats? Because if I find out that doing something like leg curls is gonna help, I'll include that in my workouts once or twice a week. BTW, 1-arm chins = awesome!!

Ivarboneless Posted February 15, 2007 Author Share Posted February 15, 2007 Life: I think that squats and deads would be enough, when I do lots of squats i deffinately feel it. The best one that I do is the arch holds and reverse leg lifts. Three hours of gymnastics. Hand: 1X3 CCS #1 5X1 CCS #1 other random grip stuff Chilling pretty much. Took it easy at gym, I want to hit it hard tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unseenbeat Posted February 15, 2007 Share Posted February 15, 2007 What about lunges, holding dumbells? (I think that's what they're called). Aren't they good? If you want to hit the glutes hard, I do feel it most in single leg movements. But, I get plenty of work from squat and deadlift variations as well, and sprints and leaping.

lifesnotfair Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 What is leaping? The only reason I have never tried sprinting, is because I have nowere to do it... and I don't wanna do it on the streets! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ivarboneless Posted February 16, 2007 Author Share Posted February 16, 2007 Lunges would deffinately work. At gym lunges and gorilla hops (jumping squats) are pretty brutal on the glutes.

Disappointed in my gripping, the #2 was tough to close and I couldn't manage a close left handed. The planche stuff was really solid, the first hold was probably more like 5 seconds. I was suprised I got 6 good competable planches done. I have decided to do some planche work on pressing days, but to mix it up so I can work all my goals at the same time. Like today I did planche, dips and handstand pushups, that way I work on all my goals at the same time---and dips/handstand pushups don't hurt the planche. Core stuff felt really strong. Happy with everything except grip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivarboneless Posted February 19, 2007 Author Share Posted February 19, 2007 Feb 18, 2007 Felt warm so I decided to go attempt my project. I gave it two attempts that went nowhere because I forgot the sequence. On the third attempt I figured out the sequence again, but was to tired to really gun for it so I called it a day. Hand: 3X3 #1 No Set 1X10 #1 CCS 3X1 #2 MMS (couldn't close it from any wider than MMS) (RH) 3X1 #2 inverted (LH) 1X1 #2 MMS (LH) 10X1 #1 no set Pinched up some random rocks Planche: clowned around with the straddle planche, but after climbing and lifting up stuff I just didn't have enough gas to hold it very long. Log Lifting: Clean and strict press ~100lb peice of cut down tree Clean and strict press ~110lb peice of cut down tree bearhug lift of ~250lb+ BIG peice of cutdown tree Many throws for height both 1 handed and 2 handed of 25lb little log Cucifix hold with 25lb little log Other shouldering and carrying ect just messing with the logs Abs: 1X150 slow legs raised head to knees situps After walking 2 miles or so to the project and then having such a crappy day, we decided to just lift some stuff. Pretty fun. My friend didn't outlift me this time . Throwing the 25lb log was intresting, I can't believe how high those guys on WSM throw those 60lb kegs or whatever!

I went undefeated at street style armwrestling. I was in a 10 minute or longer match with my 185lb #2.5 closing friend (which I won) we ran through black sabbaths paranoid, highway to the danger zone, and queens another one bites the dust before the match was over! After that we had a 5 or so minute left handed match, and then forced taht one to keep going for equal time. After that we were both so tired that the weaker members of the club were a real challenge and that made for an intresting day. Many long matches. Abs: 1X150 slow legs raised head to knees situps 1 mile walk Handstand: Many press handstands on desks and chairs and stuff at school. Arms are wasted from armwrestling club. I was suprised that the thickbar went so well after all that. I finally managed to do something that impresses my #2.5 closing friend! Apparently he is not impressed with one arm chins, flag levers, handstand pushups, front levers, or the straddle planche, BUT as soon as I dipped with my 130lb sister hanging from my legs he gave me mad props . I think I am going to try to get a double bodyweight dip (BW + BW hanging off of me). I am pretty close and I think I can get it if I train dips and tricep stuff more.

Ivarboneless Posted February 22, 2007 Author Share Posted February 22, 2007 (edited) Lifesnotfair: I just walked in from gym and read this topic. So, right after gymnastics and before eating anything, wearing a wife beater (it's a mullet thing ) & pants but no shoes I weighed in at: 151.1lbs Three hours of gymnastics today. THIS DID NOT FEEL GOOD! After armwrestling club yesterday and thickbar I am so sore it's crazy. Good hard day at gym. The only strength stuff really worth mentioning that happened at gym was my rope climbing and front levers. I climbed the rope up and down three times without using my feet or touching the ground. I was a bit dissapointed, I really hoped to be able to do five but I think four would be my absolute limit if I was perfectly fresh. Rope climb: 1X3 trips up and down no feet (15ft rope) Front lever: 5X5sec pull to straddle front lever Decent day. I was really tired and sore, too tired and sore to do anything very well and my coach was not happy. Armwrestling is not sitting well with my gymnastics coach. I got another "you are phenominal, you are everything I ever wanted to be" compliment today, that made me feel a little better after having such a horrid day at gym.

Ivarboneless Posted February 24, 2007 Author Share Posted February 24, 2007 Feb 23, 2007 Gymnastics meet. At the meet: 1X1 one arm chin 1X2 one arm chins (pretty easily!!! possibly could have made 3) Parallel bars: 4th Rings: 6th Pommel horse: 4th All Around: 3rd Good meet for me. Tough competition there! I had hoped to get top 5 on rings, but even with a solid routine and stuck dismount I only got 6th. There were a lot of specialists there, guys who don't compete all events, so my all around placing is a little misleading. Really happy with my parallel bars routine. Everything was with excellent form and I stuck my dismount rock solid. I attempted to compete the straddle planche on the floor, but I felt really weak because I didn't have anything to eat since lunch and we were competing at around 8:30. I threw it anyway, but I'm sure I took deductions on it . Next meet. Lots of guys not holding their strength skills long enough on rings. I held mine for a solid 5sec so that my skills stood out.

Ivarboneless Posted February 26, 2007 Author Share Posted February 26, 2007 I decided to go ahead and train through the pain of abs. Hand: some climbing training Mantel: Trained mantels for a good long while, really pumped up my forearms and gave my back and legs a good workout. Planche: 3X10sec advanced tuck planche lots of messing around in planches 6X10sec planche leans Handstand: Lots of handstanding 1X1 walk up one stair in handstand 1X5 handstand pushups Abs: 1X150 slow legs raised head to knees situps 1X300 legs raised elbows across knees situps 1X250 legs raised elbows across knees situps 1X250 V-ups 1X3:00 hollow hold Walked 3 miles. My friends and I went to CiCi's pizza and had a pizza eating contest. I walked there and back so as to burn at least a little of the massive amount of calories I was sure to consume. I got 2nd place. My #2.5 closing friend took home the gold with 1st place. I ate 30 slices. My friend beat me with 33 fricking slices. I could have probably downed 35, but at 33 he looked like he could make 40 if he pushed so I decided to admit defeat and take 2nd. 1st place: 33 slices 2nd place (me): 30 slices 3rd place: 28 slices 4th place: 15 slices 5th-8th: less than 15 slices My #2.5 closing friend is an eating machine, I didn't know he could put away so much food!

lifesnotfair Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 And you're 150lbs? Jeez..... Life's not fair. I once tried and couldn't even reach 20. I guess I'm not such a big eater. Yet I gain fat so easily! ARGH!!!!

Grippers must have carried over to rafters (or my chest just got stronger), because previously I could not chin on the 3" thick rafters 16" apart, I could just hang in the middle position. Rafter stuff really felt strong, despite the fact that my hands were tired and my upper body was tired from all the front levers and such.
