savagewood Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 When I use the TTK I tend to roll my wrist inward at the close of the movement. To help draw a mental picture imagine you're holding a bottle in your hand and you turn it to the side to pour it out. This is the motion I make with my wrist when using heavy weights. If I don't do the twist the weight is so light it only feels hard at the close and nowhere else along the ROM. I was just wondering if I was cheating myself. Any suggestions?

HAMMERHEAD Posted October 30, 2003 Share Posted October 30, 2003 Are you doing the wrist roll to make it harder? I don't think I could comment unless I saw what your doing. I've noticed the TTK is very different depending on how you use it. Even the height of the table you put it on makes a difference, and that's if you use a table. I showed Tommy H. the TTK and he really liked it. He noticed that if you lift the back up a bit (the part your holding on to) and squeeze it takes away any unintentional cheating. It's a great tool, especially for heavy negatives. -HH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
