Building, building, building.....
After some distractions that forced me away from my training, I am so pleased to be back to the gym and focusing on rebuilding and shattering some very specific grip goals in late January 2016. I am eager to rebuild and continue moving forward with competing, being a business owner and enjoying the off season for my minions while they get back into the gym, work with their coaches and make every training day count.
Gripper Warm Up - Guide, 3x10
Deload Week From Regular Lifting Program. Normally I back off of both lifting and grippers but my grip has been feeling really good and I do not feel a need to cut back at this point. Jedd reminded me how important a proper warm up is with my grip training so I kept that in mind. I often try to speed up my work and proper warm ups are the first things to get cut. Overall this week progress is apparent.
Warm Up - Barbell Complex, 3x5, x3
SquatGuide
3x10
SquatGuide Weighted Holds
3x5 second holds
Grippers - 10x1
The rules here are when I close a gripper, I move up to the next higher one. If I miss on a higher one, I drop down. I can miss on heavier grippers twice and finish with lighter singles.
Super progress this week!
