I havent trained at a gym in almost 2 years, but yea I have an entire KB set, getting the beast (48kg) for xmas

Its hard to find a gym that will let you bring them, WoW and GOLD's said no... i wasn't suprised but if I wanted I could just train at my BJJ gym. They have about 100 of them

That was yesterday's session

Fingertip pullups
6,5,5,4,3 x bw

This was todays.

I miscounted again like a schmuck

ah well no harm no foul

I was scheduled for swings today, but i opened my gifts last night and messed around with the 40 and 48kg KB's for a good hour or two. Did a couple get ups each arm with the 48kg (which is ridiculously large, cleaning it is a bitch) I can do push presses with the 40kg easily, as well as swings and snatches. I also did a pullup with 32kg of resistance, pretty easily after I did my fingertip pullups.

I also got this CoC sign that holds all my grippers. Its real sturdy and looks cool too. Gotta get some pics of my gym.

I'm pissed I didn't do swings today, I was on a roll but I digress. Tomorrow I think I will do just get up's and pullups because its back to BJJ this week. Swings thursday, hmmmm maybe some jump rope??

Damn. I am sleep deprived and malnourished, but I got through it! And I counted correctly!

I have finally gotten the hang of PNF stretching and it is doing wonders for my hip flexors, hamstrings and overall flexibility. Stretching is now something I look forward to and gains are coming quickly.... this will help my ground game for sure.

I moved up to the 32kg KB for my swings today and did them 2 handed, it was harder and thus I did less volume. My technique is getting MUCH tighter.

Pullups were a bitch when I got to 4 reps. My forearms and grip were taxed by the time I got done with TGU's

I am setting a new goal for TGU's, 15minutes with the 40kg KB and 10minutes with the 48kg KB.

I will get 15minutes in 2 weeks max, I have done singles with the 48kg but never for time.

I also have a short term swing goal with the 32kg, and that is 300 swings per week. I will have this in 2 weeks

My fingertip pullup goal is 9,9,8,7,6 in 3 weeks.

Havent trained much in the past week. Back on track today...nailed my 15 minute TGU goal. I was in the zone.

I had alot of energy in the gym today, So I did some very fast paced snatches

Swings tomorrow.

Killed it with the swings, definately a personal best.

I had nothing left after the swings, nailed the first two sets of pullups but it just wasn't happening. I will go back 2 pullup workouts and work from there

stretch
wt. 200

Ok, first off, great workout. I underestimated myself and was able to Get up with the 48kg (106lbs) for 7 minutes before my grip and form broke down. Next workout 10:00 will be cake. When your doing getups with the beast, it becomes more of a goal of not dropping the bell on your face than completing the rep, however achieving one usually comes with the other.

Breezed through the snatches, tightened up my technique. Tried some pullups but again it just wasn't happening so now I'm taking 3 days off before I re-start my pullup program.

so are you doing TGU's non stop for 15 minutes without break?

soxmuscle · 01-07-2008, 07:58 PM

Is there a website where ignorant people like myself can see vids of these types of unconventional exercises?

tallcall · 01-08-2008, 08:31 AM

Jeez, 106 lbs?!? Next time you just need to grab a training partner and hoist them up and down for those TGUs for 7-8 minutes (preferably while they're fighting back).

fUnc17 · 01-08-2008, 11:55 AM

Fufu... Ya the only breaks I'm getting are when I switch arms

sox... youtube, dumbass

tallcall...

33sun33 · 01-08-2008, 03:53 PM

Wow, thats a very interesting workout there. Im too ignorant to know half the stuff you are doing!

Is there a reason you do the Turkish get ups by time instead of by reps? Or is that how you are supposed to do them. I do them by reps, but the rep number always seems nonconsequential. I usually stop when my body/form starts to fail.

The goal of the TGU as an exercise is TUT (time under tension). Counting reps just encourages one to go through the motions quicker, minimizing TUT.
