Stew,

I'll put your bend on my list. Well done!

William,

There is a time limit of 30 secs for reverse bending. It certainly looked like you had over the 45 degrees bend by 30 secs, but of course I can't be sure. Anyway, you'll easy get another one to 45 degrees, or even better a 5.5" G5. Rules are in the above link.

Yes, I almost got the impression that he was going after a 90 degree kink. At the end the hands went below the waist line.

Thanks David, I was unaware of the time limits. I will review the rules and give it a go my next workout. I was trying to bend everything to 90 degrees man 45 sure sounds a lot easier :tongue

Even more so when you get to the shorter stuff. ;)

Finally some bending strength back.

Still can't do any pressing, but the Schwinn Airdyne bike using arms only each day is helping my shoulder strength and flexibilty greatly. Of course also the rehab exercises.

1. Bent a 230k Challenge bar to 80 degrees.

2. Bent a Grade 8 x 6" bolt to 63 degrees.

Very pleased, best since the surgery by far.

Other grip and bending machine to finish.

I think a couple of months you will be putting a red away just tape some 1/8" and then 3/16"crs bars to the g8s and you will get there so the same with the 1/4"squire steel.

Felt strong today, and also having less pain with the shoulder daily and hence more confidence that it won't blow on me. Course my physio would probably have a heart attack if she knew what I was doing. But hell I'm doing all her rehab stuff! :tongue

Anyway, did a lot of pinch, grippers and stuff early. But was a bit pissed off tonight so decided to vent my anger on some steel from John Beatty.

1. Bent a FBBC 7" Bastard bar to 17 degrees.

Was very pleased with this, and feel if I'd had confidence to go through the pain I may have got it.

I think all the work I was doing one handed really strengthened my right hand, and maybe even kept the left from withering away. Also did some crazy stuff earlier in the day as well - but that was pinching!

Bending machine to finish.

Wanted to have another go at the 7" bastard bar. Just had to be brave!

1. Bent a FBBC 7" Bastard bar to 45 degrees.

The video will be shown to John for his certs.

I'm so pleased I did that One Hand Bending after my shoulder surgery, because I actually feel stronger in my right hand, and when my left arm/shoulder strengthens up I should be damaging some serious steel.

All for now, from a happy,

David

:mosher That is just sick and wrong...and that's a compliment. Congrats on a well earned goal. Once again I hear the steel screaming :help I'm sure that has to be very rewarding. Congrats again. Looking forward to seeing what you accomplish in the next few months. "All things are possible to him that believes."
