I hate grip training. It just seems like so little reward for the effort. Gotta do it though.

nope.. got a few reps with it before I started all that grip vid stuff and tried to take a video of it after the fact and couldn't get the handles to touch so it didn't count for a certification. sucks. I'll get it soon enough.

I used to do this all the time because I didnt have boards (at 24 hour fitness). I took the foam rolller and zipped it up in my hoodie so it didnt roll away. People looked at me a little funny.

haha the one i tried..the whole roller was too thick with little give. The gym I was at at the time had one cut in half so the flat of it sat perfectly on my chest and didn't budge during the pressing. I'm thinking we all need to make one!

ME lower body

trap bar deadlift (85lb trap bar)

175x6x1
355x6x1
535x3x1
625x3x1
715x3x1
765x2x1 HUGE DOUBLE AND HUGE PR!!! I've got the lift on video. Olympic Track and Field athlete doc patton was gracious enough to video it for me. I can't wait to check it out! There was so much weight on the bar we had to use a band to hold it on because the collars wouldn't fit. Felt damn good to pull this weight!

reverse hypers

3 sets of 20

On these heavier days, I'm doubling up on my atlarge nutrition results supplement intake both the day before and the day of the lift. I've noticed a huge difference in recovery and power during my lifts doing this. It can get kinda expensive but if you load up a little more, there seems to be alot of carry over.

JESUS! Huge DL!

Is that a trap bar with the higher handles or normal height? Either way, impressive!

Zach Trowbridge · « **Reply #1512 on:** December 16, 2008, 06:08:56 PM »

Fucking A. Is that strapped or unstrapped? Either way that's a fucking beast of a pull.

thewickedtruth · « **Reply #1513 on:** December 17, 2008, 05:53:54 AM »

this one has the higher handles. It was 3" over the top of the level ones and it was strapless. not perfect...but i had to get out of my damn head on the pulls lately and it seemed to have worked.

Stubborn · « **Reply #1514 on:** December 17, 2008, 12:20:38 PM »

GREAT WORK! Keep it up, we expect big things from you in the future.
