odin Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 I'll try to make it as well. I've worked a lot of extra hours this week, but hope everything is settled down by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jasonotto Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Sounds like this is going to be another great practice. I am looking forward to it. See you guys Saturday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odin Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Scott George came to the AW practice tonight and spent most of his time at the AW table and was doing really well. The "Phenom" could not make it (he's a fairly young guy and it was a Saturday night after all). There was only one table tonight and I was feeling pretty beat up from the grip work, so I didn't do any pulling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madss Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 It was good times! I am sore today but feel pretty good. I might not be able to make it to Sat. 14 practice because I am attending a Olympic lifting class with Anson. It ends at 4 so I'll call and see if you guys are still practicing and I'll swing by if not I'll see you on the 21th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Retarides Posted February 10, 2009 Author Share Posted February 10, 2009 That's okay Scott. We will be back at our normal time on Saturday, 2pm. If you want to come by afterward, we'll probably be training until 6:30 or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want to come by afterward, we'll probably be training until 6:30 or so. I'll see you tomorrow. Be there by 2:30.. My Dad will be there of course. I'll bring the other 25lbs plate, although I doubt any of us can pinch three 25lbs plates.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm planning to do reps with the Rolling Thunder and some Blob/ blockweight work. See you guys tomorrow. Is Danny coming?

James Retarides Posted February 14, 2009 Author Share Posted February 14, 2009 I don't know. I know Paul said he might not make it but last indication was that Danny would be back this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odin Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 (edited) I felt a bit weak today but had fun. The guys are showing improvement in pinch each week and showed a lot of potential in the Rolling Thunder today. James broke 190 off the ground with my old handle a couple times and a couple of the other guys showed promise as well. I did get some feedback that the pinch does help in establishing hand position during AW, so that was good to hear. I think we'll get a couple of Gripmas contestants from this group. Was Scott able to make it after his seminar? Edited February 15, 2009 by odin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgiannelli Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 (edited) I didn't do much grip work this afternoon, but felt really good after AW practice tonight. I'd say my best day yet. I appreciate the stuff you've shown me Bob... Grip work does make a difference when it comes to the table. I want to pinch six 10's soon.. its one of my goals.

Was Scott able to make it after his seminar? Yea I made but did not pull, mainly watched and soaked up knowledge. I was way to sore and no fuel in the tank after 7 hours of Oly lifting. Next Sat I'll get back on the table. I did leave my axle and the new RT for James to play with this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Retarides Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 Thanks for coming guys. I figure we'll start practice next week at 6pm. After that, 2pm every day. Bob a few of us are going up to Gripmas as it stands now. We have time to get better. A lot of guys at practice are ahead of me in this stuff, but I will eventually be holding my own.
