I tried shrugging today, and its completely undoable without straps. I did 140kgx5x9, and like 70x30 but had to stop because my hands just couldn't hand it. I can see myself doing 300x10x10 with straps. Still, great way to train grip. Also tried reverse barbell curls, another good way to strength grip. Gonna do it after deadlifts on saturdays.

PS: Decaf quit rugby, become klokov.

Just noticed this post, good thing you posted it, I've been losing grip strength like a motherfucker and have droped a lot on my DL. Any other good way to train my grip? Except for, you know, deadlifts?


Wendler recommends heavy, high rep, cheating DB rows.

Also rack pulls and farmers walks. and make sure you're doing most of your DLs with double overhand.


Depends on your weakness. Since my pronated (looking down) is always my weak point, reverse barbell curls seems to work for me (plus I never do curls, and bigger biceps that dont tear on deadlifts can help)

I've been giving some thought to being a personal/athletic trainer (long-term future ideas here). I'm not thinking this on a whim but I'm in the putting my feelers out and gathering information stage. Anyone know if there is a more respected certification or program than others? I get the feeling anyone could go out and get something to say they are a personal trainer but I would want to do it right and the best way possible. This would need to be relevant to the US too

I'll post that question at dragondoor.com. Everyone is gonna recommend RKC, but many people there work as PT and have other titles and can tell you which are worth getting.

Looking at my goals set early this year I have 3 months to go from 106kg to 130kg 5rm in the squat and 130kg to 160kg 5rm in the DL. I have previously squatted 120kg for 5, but that was a long time ago.

I will take the rest of this year really serious to try and reach these goals, as my year hasn't been very serious at all.

I have been having a hard time progressing in both the squat and then DL. No matter how hard I force my knees out they still cave in under heavy loads, and I really dont want to do anything with bad form. I don't really know what to do to stop my knees from caving in

Blah I'm only 2kg from my Snatch goal but 10KG from my cj goal. 5 from back squat and 10 from front squat. Time to start squatting seriously until the American open

I've got a month and a week to go until my goal deadlines. Right now, I'm 7.5kg over my squat goal and I plan to add another 7.5kg in the next month so I'm very pleased with that. I've got 15kg to go on deadlift, which will be tough but possible. The real problem comes in with the chest exercises where I first had a wrist injury and then an elbow injury. I've got 12.5kg to go with press which will be very difficult to reach. I also have 20kg to go with bench and 20kg to go with chin-ups, which once again I almost certainly won't make. I guess that's just how it goes.

All in all, I'm still really happy with my first year's progress

Injuries happen and you have to readjust your goals when they do. You're still pretty damn strong so I'd be pretty happy if I were you!

Haha yeah, I'm not too upset. The only lift that's currently annoying me is my bench, which has been stuck on 1xBW for the last 6 months because of a string of small but annoying injuries. I'm happy that I haven't lost any strength in my bench at least, so now that I'm working at it again I'm hoping to make some good gains in the next few months, maybe get to the big 100kg before the end of the year (rather than by 1 November as I had initially hoped).

We'll just have to see how it goes

Good stuff.

My lifts today are looking pretty good. 94% of my DL 5RM and 1 rep on my squat 3RM. And both were with good form and not maximal effort. I feel like in a couple of months, I'll be able to smash through my old PRs and start catching up to you. Watch your back Dai

I offered to borrow him some but apparently the situation has been cleared. Also training biceps is so much fun.
