Ross Love Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Today was the first time ive ever focused on the RT.. I deadlifted with Straps first then went straight to the RT due to limited time in the gym today. Was very happy. Hit 232 with both hands then 242 with my right pretty easily.. got 252 off the ground but could not quite hold onto it. I suppose 250+ is right around the corner. Ive decided that after my Strongman Competiton on Feb 19th im actually going to make Grip my focus for a while and all of my other lifts will be my accessory. My body is feeling rather beaten up and id like to make a run at this grip stuff for a while. So I guess Grip and Throwing will be my main focuses. Very excited to get up to Ft Worth and train grip with Paul in a couple weeks.. 232 Both Hands 242 Right Hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geralt Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 Great work! Strong hands you've got man. We'll be hearing more from you I guess. Are you also doing pinchwork and grippers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Love Posted January 28, 2011 Author Share Posted January 28, 2011 Great work! Strong hands you've got man. We'll be hearing more from you I guess. Are you also doing pinchwork and grippers? Geralt, yes I am doing all of the above.. I did my first grip comp 2 weeks ago and believe it or not my hands, wrists and foreamrs are still recovering lol. As soon as im back to normal I plan to practice my pinch and crush more often. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
