Bob Lipinski Posted April 17, 2004 Author Share Posted April 17, 2004 Hah, no shit guys. I bent today after a gripper workout, then after 6 beers. I knew deep insode that I would suck bad both times, but I had to try anyway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clay Edgin Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 I always bend better after I've had a couple kamikaze doubleshots. Maybe it's the increased blood flow throughout my body I've bent 4 out of 7 days this week and my lower arms are toasted still. I lifted tonight and hurt like hell after set, even those that didn't require grip strength. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Beatty Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 I bent 4 days in a row, knowing I needed some time off. The last day was the easiest, but definitely the most painful. I caught this from you guys..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thorfinn Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 I have only been bending since April 5 and have only taken two days off thus far (including today). I will move to 2-3 days week starting mon. though. I think planned overreaching is good for you. I think it makes adaptation kick-in a bit faster. I was getting weaker and weaker so, I'm hoping on mon. I will get some good bends (for me) although I'm going to hold back til Wed. or Fri. I will measure it by speed of my bends. My wrists and thumb pads are burnt. This bending stuff is awesome. -Keith- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Walker Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 For what its worth: When I tore my pec, I was bending with alcohol in my system. Did it stop me from enjoying adult beverages? Hell No! Did it stop me from attempting any strength feats while intoxicated? Most certainly: Hell Yeah! Be carefull...booze doesnt mix well with anything except card games, pool, and tailgates.
