 A World class farmer Member 576, 3429 posts SQ 350, BP 200, DL 400950.0 kgs @ 136kgs UnEq | jt said:forget the guns massive grip is where it is at Agreed! But going into the gym and saying "yeah i'm gonna hit my flexor carpi radialis, flexor carpi ulnaris and Brachioradialis" usually results in many blank faces and people disliking you  In all seriousness though dwarf, use this time to develop a man-like grip. | ||

 King of the impossible Member 3130, 2082 posts SQ 310, BP 200, DL 310820.0 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq | Cheers lads and don't worry I have been doing a lot of grip training actually, trying to develop a man grip instead of my pathetic boy grip. Tuesday 17/1 Trained in the new powerbase gym in Loughborough today. Expected big things from this gym and was very disappointed. It's aesthetically pleasing but has gone so commercial and is not built for performance or strength althletes anymore, it's just bodybuilder heaven. Anyway the show must go on! Seated strict military press Bar x6 (2sets) 60kg x6 (2sets) 70kg x3 80kg x3 85kg x3 90kg x3 85kg x3 80kg x3 70kg x3 60kg x6 (2sets) BTN strict military 60kg x4 70kg x4 (3sets) Seated strict lockout 60kg x6 80kg x6 90kg x6 (3sets) Flat bench press 60kg x6 100kg x3 120kg x1 135kg x3 140kg x3 (2sets) Decline bench 60kg x6 100kg x6 120kg x6 130kg x6 (2sets) Incline Bench 60kg x6 100kg x4 (3sets) Cable crossover (3sets) Really happy with how my pressing is developing at the moment. Will hopefully transfer to my log, axel and dumbell when I start lifting properly again once my injury has gone. FIN! | ||

Cheers mate, not sounding big headed but it was quite comfortable. Hoping to get 145 x3 net week and then look at repping 150 before my arse is fixed. And not quite 80k at the min, more like 84/85 | ||

King of the impossible Member 3130, 2082 posts SQ 310, BP 200, DL 310820.0 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq | Monday 23/1 Seated Log Press Thought with the new gym set up this would work. However with the placings of the pins on the new racks and the sie of the log it was difficult to get any rythem or get the log set properly in order to press it. Then after I had t**tted about with it for about an hour and the given up, I realised I should have just sat the bench inbetween the jerk blocks and done it there. I have now learnt for wednesday. Anyway on with the session. 42kg x5 (2sets) 62kg x5 (2sets) 72kg x3 82kg x3 (2sets) 82kg x1 82kg x3 87kg x3 (2sets) 87kg x1 87kg x3 - as you can see from the amount of times I messed about with it, I couldnt get it set right. with the rack the weights wouldnt fit on and then when I pressed it they were banging into the sides etc. But as said above will do it from jerk blocks on wednesday. Seated Strict Press 60kg x3 80kg x3 90kg x1  90kg x3 - no idea what happened above 92.5kg x2 f3 BTN seated srict 60kg x6 (3sets) Seated Pin Lockouts - eye height 60kg x3 90kg x3 moved up to just over my forehead height to hammer the triceps 100kg x6 110kg x6 120kg x6 60kg x12 Flat Bench Press - normal grip 60kg x3 100kg x3 120kg x1 130kg x3 145kg x3 - Rep PB! (2sets) Very happy to do this and even happier to do it for 2 sets. Decline Bench 60kg x6 100kg x6 (3sets) had to leave it there coz my triceps were battered Incline Bench 60kg x6 90kg x6 (3sets) 60kg x10 - Tricep death Cable Crossover - 3sets Standing weighted abs - works the core and also a stretch given to me to help my glute by the physio. Everyones a winner baby! FIN! | ||

Next week gonna try some standing strict work and some banded squats and see how it feels. Then its game on to get ready and in tip top shape for the season. Also, I liked your post about the Midlands comp, gutted I cant be there. Gonna ask Rob if I can do the southern one though. Hows your training going then? Looks like its coming back QUICK in your log. Looking forward to seeing the rep machine in action soon. | ||
