Your pretty modest for a gripster so strong, you could enter a contest with the likes of Woodall, Johnson, Corcorran, etc, etc and hold your own quite well without a doubt, if not place higher than one or two of them.

Matt Brouse Posted December 1, 2007 Author Share Posted December 1, 2007 (edited) Friday November 30th - Bodyweight 266lbs. Grippers Tx10x2, #1x10, #2x5, #2x5 Second Holds Double Overhand Axle Deadlifts 115xsome, 205xsome, 305x1, 355x1, x1, x1, x1 Yep. Grippers are to be done after the lifting for the warm-up, this was terrible. Also, the grip stuff slowed a bit with the nearing of Strongman Nationals but I should be getting back into the groove again. Gotta get my garage heated as I like lifting there...

Matt Brouse Posted January 10, 2008 Author Share Posted January 10, 2008 Wednesday January 9th, 2008 DO Axle Deads 305x3, 335x1, 355x1, 305x5 DO Axle Power Clean 125x5, 185x5, 215x5 Some Random Gripper Closes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Brouse Posted February 15, 2008 Author Share Posted February 15, 2008 (edited) A lot of my grip stuff has been limited to the strongman events (which aint a bad policy). Recent stuff: 305 Farmer's Walk for 80 with our tougher handles. PR on these handles. 287lbs. Power Clean on the Axle. Press it also. Have experimented with sled dragging with an RT for the handle...still not sure of it's worth.

Matt Brouse Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 307 x 10 Axle Deadlifts Double over hand. 2 Rep PR. Dropped 11 on lockout. I should really get back to training the other grip events, eh? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chuck Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Damn, and I thought my 255x10 earlier this week was good. Nice Axle work! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Brouse Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 Thanks Chuck! Did some RT today worked to a single® at 210. A triple at 170 which is a PR. Also poewr cleaned 315 for the first time in years. Not necessarily too weak but just haven't done heavy stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big nasty Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Wow nice lift's on both Matt crackin 200 on the R/T is cool!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Brouse Posted February 25, 2008 Author Share Posted February 25, 2008 I think my best pull is 215 or 220 but it was nice to pull up around 200 with no training on it and feel comfortable with the weight. A lot of Axle cleans, deads, presses is easily top 3 best overall grip builders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Brouse Posted March 12, 2008 Author Share Posted March 12, 2008 So, I took another random stab at the RT and hit a few more PRs a few days back. 185x5 Right 195x3 Right 185x3 Left 195x1 Left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Brouse Posted March 12, 2008 Author Share Posted March 12, 2008 Did some wrist rolls and static hangs today, just feeling it out. I'm going to slowly working back into it. Here's my basic training layout. You can seen the grip stuff will be centered around the Axle work and the FW. As it should be. Monday: Cleans, Axle work, Deads, Upper Back stuff - Grippers or levering Tuesday: Cardio, light grip work - Wrist rolls Wednesday: Dynamic Pressing (log, bar, axle) Jerks, Push Presses - Thursday: Cardio, light Grip - nothing static or eccentric Friday: Mobile Events - FW, Yoke, Tire, Squats as assistants when time permits - Usually some RT pulls or Vbar Saturday: Strict Pressing, same implements, some push pressing for reps, DB work, arm work Sunday: Off, maybe some grip or cardio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
