Nice work, DOMS.

Dexter ep 2....just keeps getting better. Pick up book 3 yet?

No, I haven't had the time. :(

However, the third episode of the season comes out next week. I saw the 1st and 2nd episodes about a month ago, so I'm really looking forward to it.

great comeback man:thumbs:!

so is this a new routine you're testing out?
Click to expand...

Nope. This is just testing for my 1 rep max on a bunch of exercises.

I don't have the details in front of me, but the new routine uses two different alternating days of workouts, two rep ranges (8x3 and 4x6), and 70 second or 60 second RIs.

I'm really looking forward to it. After I finish the routine in a month or so, I'm going to retest and see how I did.

I almost forgot to mention that another important variable is the percentage of my 1 RM. That's why I'm doing all the testing. The first week's weights are 80% of my 1 RM. Each week adds 2% to that. So that, during week four, I'll be doing 88% of my 1 RM.

If you've ever failed on a Skull-crusher, you'd understand that Skull-fuckers are also a very appropriate name.

But I will never, and I mean never, call them French Presses. That's like calling an A-1 Abrams a Happy Fun Cart. It's just not right!

Damn straight!
 
Even More Testing

This is my second to last testing workout. I've one more leg testing session to do.

I'm not sure why, but I did very shitty on the Standing Calf Raises. I've done almost 300 in the past.

I did one whole Chin-up. Granted, I've never done them before, but that hurts the pride. :dwnthumb:

I ran out of plates on the Decline DB Presses. I'm guessing my 1 RM is between 80 and 90, so I'll call it 85.

I forgot to mention that I purchased two Captains of Crush. I purchased the 80 pound model. I can close this thing all day long, but I had no idea where to start. So I ordered the #1 (140 pounds), which should be here on Friday or Monday.

Nice workout DOMS. Don't feel bad about the calf raising, that's good numbers, and DB presses are very impressive.

What's a captain of crush? Sounds like a supervillan.

Thanks for the nice words, goob! I still feel shitty about the Calves though.

Captains of Crush are a series of hand grippers. Only about 110 people have been able to close the #3 (280 pounds), and only one person has closed the #4 (365 pounds). The #1 is only 140 pounds.

Here's the forearm of a guy that can "only" close a #3.

I'm using these to improve my grip. I'm also going to try and add some grip work during my next routine if it doesn't interfere.

I have to admit though, the abbreviation of CoC bothers me. I don't like saying "I like CoC". :no:
 
Holy fuck, a 140lb gripper????? That's waaaayyy beyond my feeble grip.

Handy thing to have, help you're big lifts like deadlifts, I was always losing grip on the heaviest ones I did. Good investment.

I'm not even sure I can close it yet. I really looking forward to seeing how I'll do. I'd be happy if I can get to the point where I can close a #2 (195 pounds).

At $26 (which includes shipping), they're pretty cheap. The folks at IronMind also ship very quickly. Even with standard shipping, I got my first gripper in four days. I ordered the second one on Tuesday, and I'll get it tomorrow (they email the tracking number).

No, im saying all i do is masturbate, and it does nothing for me in the way of forearm size.

DOMS just likes to watch.

If you haven't watched, go rent it.

Some quotes:

"I could've been a rock singer, if only I hadn't been banned from MTV. Long story. But anyway, I only know that one song. Well, I do a mean "Puff the Magic Dragon," but only in the nude. Longer story."

[Looking at a corpse's breasts] "Damn, baby, I hope you signed some organ donor cards."

Lt. Amos: Two words. "Disco Express."
Ford Fairlane: Disco Express? They blew dog. And that lead singer, he kinda looked like...
Lt. Amos: Like ME, right?
Ford Fairlane: Yeah. I was gonna say he looked like shit, but... he looked like you.

yea, the COC's are the shit. i just got my #2 last night.. fuckin a that things tough
 
nope, cant close it yet.. i can close the number one a good 8-10 x's though.

they say when you can close a #3 thats when you can crush a raw potato, or a full can of soda with one hand :eek:

No shit :eek:!

Did you see the video where Mudge pops a full can of soda with his hands?

I wonder how much pressure it would take to snap a person's wrist? It only takes 68 pounds of pressure to crush a person's throat.
 
yea, i saw that vid.. but he used 2 hands. i used to have a vid of a guy doing it with one, but i dont know where it is now.

i have wondered that too, if you were strong enough to just grab someones arm and break it.. think if you were in mma and were that strong.. you could go in everytime and fuck people up
 
If he can close 140 then imagine what he can statically hold.
 
Thats some scary grip strength. Ive seen vids of people crushing apples and potatos and things with one hand. Looks awesome, but when you try it yourself its just not pretty.

Gotta get me some grippers...
