When I say mini-reps, I mean really mini reps. Like 1/32" gap between reps, and doing them really fast. I love the 5/8" handles. They're easier to set, but once you get to the 1/2" mark, you can really feel the BTR setting in. I'll be buying the GM and SE on my next order in 5/8".

lukeamdman Posted July 24, 2009 Author Share Posted July 24, 2009 Got a quick workout in with dad. I have another workout on Sunday so I didn't want to fry myself. Grippers hg150x10x2 #3x1 Tried twice to TNS the #3. Got it down to about 1/8" each time. Warmup - 1HP with hamptons 50x2 70x1 Blob50 For the first time in months, I was able to get a DL in RH. LH hovered it all four attempts, RH got all four to a full DL. 2.5" Crusher 111x1 121x1 131x1 141x1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lukeamdman Posted July 27, 2009 Author Share Posted July 27, 2009 Had a huge workout with Matt yesterday. Did a ton of closes with #3's and 5/8" SM/GM. LH still couldn't close the 169lb #3.5. I did get 205lb almost to a full DL for 2hp. I think it comps the pole has to reach 18"? If so, I exceeded that by a good amount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lukeamdman Posted August 14, 2009 Author Share Posted August 14, 2009 My right elbow has some pretty serious tendinitis...I'm very angry about this. My left elbow has had it on and off for a year and a half. After softball is over in a couple week, I'm going to take 6-8 weeks off from all training to let it heal...dang it! Grippers RH was able to TNS my #3 twice. I'll get it on video next week.

lukeamdman Posted August 14, 2009 Author Share Posted August 14, 2009 What's the tendinitis from?Nice TNSing Arm wrestling a buddy at work...I destroyed him, but it wasn't worth it! About 5 years ago I arm wrestled by brother in law. Beat him with either hand, but I woke up the next morning with tendinitis in both elbows. I should have remembered that!
