funny I get asked that allot. I do grip for every warmup and usually one extra day per week. So I go thru this circut maybe 8 to 9 times per week. 3 years ago I had so much pain in my elbows I couldnt do curls. This has fixed it and allowed me to progress. I hope it helps Nate.

Does it hurt when you do standing calf work? What are you doing for you Ham’s? Are you doing any high impact work like box jums etc…?

i was doing box jumping because im on the track team but ill have to stop that, it doesnt hurt to do standing calf work but ive been neglecting the calves because running interferes with that. for hams i do squats (wide stance my quads never grew from these), leg curls, glute hams and romanians. Also we do ladders
Wow that is allot. Have you felt any better since stopping the Jumps?
Your definatly doing enough for you hams. Usually that is the cause of allot Knee issues. (not doing enough) I would substitute strait leg deads for the Glute hams and be sure to ice after every workout.

sounds good, my knees feeling better since i started biking instead of running or jumping, im seeing a strength coach to get an assessment for any miss alignments
Kind of a funny deal this week end. For the past couple weeks Ive noticed my right hand has been going numb when Im typeing for a long period of time. (just the last two fingers) So Im kinda feeling around my arm and elbow and I notice a really big indentation in my trisep. So I check it out in the mirror and there is a huge muscle tear in my left tri. Its like a ball of muscle compared to the left side when I felex it. Doesnt hurt, no bruseing and it doesnt really affect my performance. So not going to worry about it. Maybe more stretching and ice just in case. No idea when I did it but it must have been a few weeks ago. I thought it was kinda funny.
good warm up. Grip bies and tries.

What do you think your raw max is? I have heard guys are getting 200lbs out of that shirt, is that similar to what you are seeing? TIA.

Wow. Do you feel that working with the heavier weights in the shirt has helped your raw bench?
Thanks again bro.

Yes for sure. Right now Im a little down though. I always hit raw each workout also and Im sure that is helping too. My raw has dropped some but my shirted bench has continued to go up. After a little recoup I planning hitting more raw stuff to get it back.
