Hey dude, that injury sucks. Be patient, you'll be back soon!

Thanks. Rehab is going well mate, improving now by the hour! The rolling thunder is proving excellent for rehab.

Definately work on that rehab and heal up fast...your log is inspiring.

Good luck man.

thanks buddy. Your training is looking good at the moment, keep it up!

Thanks Chris, bro.

To be honest i only do beyond the range singles. I have done the weight of the inch (77.5kg) standing on 2 benches so that the handle is just above my feet, as this is the best way to duplicate the inch lift i could think of! I will try a normal single after my millenium attempt and i expect over 90kg.

I know you should really start supplementing your grippers with other forms of grip work like supporting grip as i am doing here (the benefits will be great). What i am doing is seeing how much i cna hold in my hands over a 2'' range of movement.

MARKR - thanks bro. I haven't tried. I reckon 70-75kg is doable for me, the weight of the inch though would probably be a little too much at this time.

lifesnotfair - most people , i'm assuming you've looked at my vids: i do look a lot older than i am. having a goatee and being 30lbs overweight doesn't help. ;)

I have never seen any of your vids, and I thought for some reason that you where like in your thirties too. :blush You just seem older somehow. :tongue

filed #2: 1 rep each hand

filed #3: achieved 2 reps with the left today and a bunch of easy singles. Right is still missing it by about the width of a piece of paper. Also did some reps holding the spring and banged out 8 with the left. Did a few sets of negs with the right hand.

a good attempt with 2 fingers with the left hand. Still not closed, but getting there.

HG400: 9 reps with right, 10 reps with left, 2 finger closes with both hands (very easy). I then attempted shutting this using just my index finger and a deep set but got own3d

filed #2

a few speed singles

2 finger closes

also got it pretty close with 1 finger and a deep set!

a few inverted reps

#1

6 reps each hand with index finger only. (very easy)

closes with ring/pinky fingers only

100 reps each hand in one go to cooldown my hands

pinch work

21kg on 6'' pinch tonight with both hands - easy PR.

assorted stuff with the pinch blocks

i need to try the blob!

bent a 60d nail.

did some chest crushes with the #1 but my pec delt insertion is still injured so i stopped.

stretching

notes

non filed #3 is doable now with 2 fingers

will start negs with the #4again next week, recently i have had a break from negs and have just worked a few reps on the #3 and individual finger stuff.

pinch is getting better i reckon 25kg+ on 1 6'' pinch block will ensure i could lift the blob. This is what sucks about living in the Uk and the back end of nowhere there is no equipment around here!!!!!!!

Do you know this provider http://www.heavygriptools.ch.vu/ ? I think they're located in Germany, might be much cheaper to ship than from the States.

Thanks.

I asked them for a quote on an inch and a 55blob a while back. Service was great, but the postage is still massive. I'll have to wait until next year.
