Skic Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gThrf2xf8rM Just did this in a workout tonight. I want that square 7 inch double under, should I go out toward the ends more, or try and kill it dead center? I have hit these DU's like a break in Martial arts turning my hands in a bit and using the point at the bottom of my fat fist to drive. I want that grade 8 DU also, soooo close on that.

That was a nice MODIFIED DU bend. True DU(strict form) is minimal padding and pinkies touching the CENTER of the bar. Watch Gazza's video's for how to perform DU strict style. It is MUCH more difficult and more a test of grip/wrist strength. I am not criticizing the bend, only answering your original question Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumpster Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Nice bend! I don't have any advice for getting the 7" square or G8 in DU style...still working towards those myself. I like the Booyah wrapping style though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David_wigren Posted May 23, 2009 Share Posted May 23, 2009 Great bend! Yes you're using the modified DU, the strongest adaptation of the DU form. So just keep working hard and both the G8 and 7" square will fall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skic Posted May 26, 2009 Author Share Posted May 26, 2009 Visit My Website Visit My Website Ohh snap, I did not know there were different DU styles. Should I grip closer or do these count for a cert? I assume modified is out on the bar farther and strict is fist to fist, I will try the other and see how I do. I thought knuckles up DU period, but I like the coaching and just bending in any way. I am pretty good at the vertical bend JJ showed in the Diesel E-Book does that fall under reserve or just it's own thing? Skic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any style will get you the cert. One is just considered to be strict by most people because it's an older techniqe which is harder and involves more wrists. Cert in the mannor you wish but work on all the styles and you will get stronger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
