Saturday - grip work
Plate pinches (hold until failure):
2 10's ~30 secs
2 10's ~ 30 secs
2 10's ~ 30 secs
2 10's, 1 5 ~ 2 secs
2 10's, 1 2.5 ~ 6 secs
2 10's, 1 2.5 ~ 6 secs
Held the plates together so the smooth sides were facing out. The 2 10s weren't bad. The 2 10s with the 1 5lber was real tough. Did these with each hand.
DB Holds (til failure):
75 ~ 20 secs
75 ~ 20 secs
75 ~ 25 secs
60 ~ 25 secs
Rack deads hold (til failure):
185 ~ 25 secs
185 ~ 20 secs
185 ~ 15 secs
I alternated my deads grip on this. It was very evident that my when my left hand is overhand, it is very weak (not the way I usually do deads).
Forearm BB curls:
40x15
40x15
50x10
Reverse DB curls:
10x10
10x10
Behind the back BB curls:
40x15
50x20
Love these.
COC Gripper (trainer):
3 reps negatives (hold til failure)
3 reps squueze and hold (til failure)
Reps:
x12
x10
Tearing cards:
10
Tearing cards is a lot harder than you would think! Especially with the friggin glossy texture of these damn cards.
All in all - great fucking workout! Loved every second of it. And I was never one to get "the pump" that peeps talk so much about. Until today. After the DB holds, my forearms felt like they were going to explode!
