Juha Harju Posted December 18, 2015 Author Share Posted December 18, 2015 Thanks. I'm luckily because my injury was not bad. I did some squats today and without pain. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juha Harju Posted December 21, 2015 Author Share Posted December 21, 2015 Yesterday was full recovery day and I ate lot of calories and prepared for today´s grip. As many my grip friends knows I have done one hand bottom up clean lift (left and right) with 20kg monster kettlebell (diameter 146.65mm) but NEVER double clean with those. My hands are only 20.5cm. Today was THE DAY and BOOOOMMMM!!! I nailed those bastards at my FIRST ATTEMPT! Very cool! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juha Harju Posted December 22, 2015 Author Share Posted December 22, 2015 Cheers. It's 1000 times harder than double blob50 clean. Sometimes I really think this is too difficult for my size hands. Now I pulled those very carefully, not too fast and explosive starting position. It works! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry to say but my hand is too little. I has tried hundred times but my fingers are too short. Haha, I feel with You - no way I'll ever able to lift it this way either! I'm even unable to lift the 45# Blob and the 40# is the absolute limit! Edited December 22, 2015 by Burkhard Macht 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odin Posted December 22, 2015 Share Posted December 22, 2015 Juha, you must have a limited hand span (distance from thumb tip to little finger tip) in comparison to the normal hand measurement we use here, or your thumb is not flexible.I trained towards the 50 lb. Blob lift by the face for a while, but it is really tough to get my hand in a position where it seem remotely possible-have to use just the tip of my thumb (which is very flexible, fortunately) in order to get part of my fingertips touching, but have to rotate my hand at an uncomfortable angle to get even that much purchase/grip on it. Worked up to lifting the 47.5# blob w/ a 1.25 platemate attached and dropped it at the top w/ 2.5# in platemates. It's on my youtube channel if you want to see it. Will probably mess around with it again once some other goals are taken care of. You are so strong, I'd think you could lift the 50 by the face if you can even get two fingertips and your thumbtip to reach. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avasatu Posted December 23, 2015 Share Posted December 23, 2015 What do you mean when you say your hand is only 20.5 cm? That's over 8 inches which i would consider pretty big. Do you mean span or length? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juha Harju Posted January 2, 2016 Author Share Posted January 2, 2016 1 RM lifts are cool and all people likes to do those. But how you can get more and more power for bigger lifts? One way is to do more reps and sets with "right zone" 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
