Isn’t that funny how that works. Sometimes the best work outs are the ones we think are going to suck going into it 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Je pense que je tirerai le meilleur parti de cet appareil si je le règle à ~ 20 mm (donc pour le MMS) avec mon autre main. Comme dans la vidéo ci-jointe. Pas entièrement (comme une pince étranglée) , mais élimine en quelque sorte la partie réglage de la clôture. - Réglé sur RGC ~ 147 RH : 3x2 J'ai manqué une des deuxièmes répétitions. LH : 3x1 autant que je pouvais, j'étais vraiment proche. J'en ai peut-être fermé un, mais je ne suis pas sûr, donc cela ne comptera pas. - Réglé sur RGC ~ 137 RH : 3x2 J'ai à peine raté une deuxième répétition. LH : 3x1 J’en ai raté un. - GD Iron 90, niveau 5, écartement étroit, petits doigts au milieu de l'extension, poignées touchant RH/LH : 4x4 Cela m'a semblé beaucoup plus facile avec mon LH, j'ai en fait raté une 3ème répétition avec RH et j'ai dû réinitialiser la pince pour terminer le ensemble. Probablement parce que ma RH fonctionnait plus que ma LH jusqu'à présent. - Quelques séries de boucles de poignet inversées à haute répétition et de déviations ulnaires avec des bandes lumineuses. C'est juste pour la récupération. thank you for your grip advice 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been suggested to me, and has helped a lot. 53 minutes ago, matek said: Thanks! What is the "criteria" of Ostlund exactly? No rubber bands + taco IMPs? The rules are using ironmind pads folded into thirds, then taco over the bar. No rubber bands. The bend starts DU, but ends in an overhand crush to the full 2". It's actually a way to cert the red nail currently. I like it, as it's a traditional style. You can look at some of my videos for reference, or view David ostlund's bend of the red. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I always watch your bends, but I wasn't sure if the crush was required for the Ostlund or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, for the style it doesn't stop at DU, but you should reach at least 45° or more before switching over to overhand/crush. You don't need a strong overhand, you could just keep it chest level and succeed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vous n'avez pas besoin d'un fort pronation, vous pouvez simplement le garder au niveau de la poitrine et réussir. I looked and it may help me in the future I have to look a little at how it works thank you it's a good tool 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matek Posted May 26 Author Share Posted May 26 RH - grippers 20mm block set - 3x3 Standard Adjustable Ti, RGC 137 I decided to go with no pauses/holds this time.
