Alawadhi Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 (edited) You already won the race Very strong bend for sure Did you attempted your mag bastard that's stuck at 85 degrees? I bet you can finish it. Edited March 18, 2008 by Alawadhi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule92 Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 You already won the race Very strong bend for sure Did you attempted your mag bastard that's stuck at 85 degrees? I bet you can finish it. Yeah like David said it wasn't really worth the race, but we're on for the Huge I'll probably attempt a Mag from start in the coming weeks, but that short crap is so damned awkward I don't know if I can get it past 90, but if I can it'll go. Thanks a lot Ben!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingsrule92 Posted March 19, 2008 Author Share Posted March 19, 2008 After I got my Combat Core Strength Ebook from Diesel I had to give some of the exercises in the Abdominal exercise index a go. These are the basic ones and I'll get into the advanced stuff in the coming weeks, this was simply conditioning since my abs are so undertrained. I didn't do anything timed or write any of it down, I was just doing stuff to almost failure. I did a lot of Planks, Windshield Wipers, Hanging Leg raises with twists, complete hanging leg raises, one leg decline situps, etc. This is fun stuff and I've just barely scratched the surface. I HIGHLY recommend everyone buys this ebook while it still includes all of the amazing bonuses (kettlebell ebook, Sledgehammer training, Abdominal exercise index, and other suff) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I know dude I'm scared too, but Friday IT DIES!!!! :rock I'm gonna go for the big shiny with IMP as I planned, but I will go for the huge with all that the bending rules allows, double leather pads and crushdown pads. I like to have a lot of different goals at the same time to keep things interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alawadhi Posted March 22, 2008 Share Posted March 22, 2008 Very well done Derek Do you do anything besides bending? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule92 Posted March 22, 2008 Author Share Posted March 22, 2008 Very well done Derek Do you do anything besides bending? At this point in time, just the occasional dumbbell/kettlebell supplemental work and I'm going to start a core program with the info from Combat Core. I believe that if I focus on something I'll get better gains on it then trying to cram everything in like I was last time and since I ahve no comp to worry about I can do this freely.

vikingsrule92 Posted March 27, 2008 Author Share Posted March 27, 2008 Training session with Rex and Aaron today, did my first work other then bending in over a month. Some gripper work, got a #2.5 LH for a PR, but couldn't get anything significant righty, got close to TNSing the #2.5 though. Random pinch stuff, a few long negs with the blob Bending: Grand Golden taken to 3" pretty quickly, but then it froze. PR (of sorts) Didn't really do much significant today, I don't like working out at 7, part of my energys gone by then, but it was still cool working out with the guys. Oh and Rex OBLITERATED two Reds like they were coathangers. Congrats bro!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, I fought it a couple mins and then gave up It wasn't going anywhere though. I think I'll get it soon, maybe I should go after it fresh the next time though. Thanks Ben!!

Something tells me I shouldn't have gone for the 9th set but I couldn't resist. My goal coming in to today was 120 but something in me just woulodn't stop, I'm going to regret it tomorrow but I'm really happy with this number. I have 3-4 blisters on each hand and my hands were in pain by the last set but it was all worth it .....

HA!! I beat you Zach!! 3/8" x 11" Square HRS PR I expected this to be insanely tough since the 11.5" was such a struggle, but it absolutely melted. I got it to about 1", WAY past parallel where the 11.5" was at 2 1/4" (although a little on the flat) 5/8" x 46" Square HRS PR Tough to start but then it melted, easier then I expected, I'm starting to get a hang of this braced stuff 3/8" x 9" FBBC G2 to 30ish degrees PR (I think?) Tough!!My legs were completely jello and I couldn't thigh crush to save my life, I'll get this when fresh Great day today!! But I took some NO-Xplode before and I absolutely crashed from the caffeine afterward, i had to go on a long walk to try to gt it to go away Edited April 1, 2008 by vikingsrule92 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
