Thanks. It wasn't the nicest thing I've done but someone had to do it. I've since found out the guy was my neighbours brother. Her place has been crawling with coppers ever since. | ||

I literally just thought hey lets give the #3 a go so this is the only gripper rep I've done today (apart from the one I did with the left hand as well ). | ||

my wood got all bloody Member 1001, 5711 posts SQ 240, BP 160, DL 272.5672.5 kgs @ 102.5kgs UnEq | I've had an idea to bloat out my sandbag a bit more. I have the odd bent up nail knocking about the place. I intend to cut them up using bold croppers in "shots" and make mini 1kg inner bags. These can either be added to the sandbag or used to replace the existing sand filler. Eventually this should yield a heavier bag of roughly the same dimensions. Seems a good idea in theory. The first step is to go for an extra 5kg. I so want to shoulder 140kg. This should allow for slow steady increments while encouraging me to bend more nails. | ||

my wood got all bloody Member 1001, 5711 posts SQ 240, BP 160, DL 272.5672.5 kgs @ 102.5kgs UnEq | Tuesday 09th July 2013 --WARM UP-- KB Swings 7.5kg x 50 Reps Band Face Pulls x50 reps x50 reps Axle Complex 60kg Deadlift x 3 reps + BOR x 3 reps + Power Clean x 3 reps + Military Press x 3 reps + Squats x 3 reps + BTN Push Press x 1 rep EZ Curls 30kg x 10 reps 40kg x 10 reps 25kg x 10 reps --Reverse --MAIN WORK-- Press 60kg x 5 reps 75kg x 5 reps 90kg x 5 reps --Brought my grip in a touch. Made quite a difference, the bar no longer wanted to rest on my clavicles but rather wanted to hover about an inch above. If I tried to force it down it simply sprang back up. Weird but felt a lot better on the press, very smooth. Push Press 90kg x 5 reps 100kg x 5 rep Axle BOR 100kg x 10 reps 100kg x 10 reps 100kg x 10 reps 100kg x 10 reps 100kg x 6 reps --Changed my grip to be a little wider. It's now somewhere between my regular row width and snatch width. Makes a huge difference to my back, much much harder but I really like it. This grip also forces my thumbs to work harder, again this is another plus. --EXTRA'S-- Chin Ups x 6 reps x 6 reps x 6 reps x 6 reps x 6 reps x 5 reps 1 x DB Z-Press 40kg x 3 reps (Each Side) 40kg x 3 reps (Each Side) 40kg x 3 reps (Each Side) 40kg x 3 reps (Each Side) 40kg x 3 reps (Each Side) 40kg x 2 reps (Each Side) --So close to an increment, just wish I had some event smaller plates to go up by. 40.5kg would be good. Hmm should I start writing PB on these since every time I do Z-Press I get a total volume PB. Feels a little cheap. I had considered a few more extra bits but I'm completely fried now. A weekend of bad food has left me a little out of sorts. Should be all clear by tomorrow. | ||

Cheers mate. Grip width is a funny thing and it really can make a difference. I've not mixed it up with rows and overheads. I think today's experiments were very good. | ||

I messed up my alarm and missed my training window. Not a great way to start a comp build up. --EXTRA'S-- Work is busy as hell today so couldn't get much done in terms of extras either. Kneeling Rollouts x 20 reps x 20 reps x 20 reps --A much better rep range, I can actually feel something. Sledgehammer Levers x 10 reps --Rear x 10 reps --Front x 3 reps -- Side/Twist x 2 reps -- Side/Twist --I'm much further down the shaft now on all levers. I could even get to the end on the rear version soon. Close Grip Pull Ups --Slightly closer grip this time. 1 thumb length between hands. x 3 reps x 3 reps x 3 reps COC #1.5 x 35 reps (Each Hand) x 15 reps (Each Hand) --Improvement, It took 3 sets to get to 50 reps last time. x 6 reps (Each Hand) --Inverted | ||
