Hey guys, thanks for the replies! It's very appreciated! I managed to do a nice workout of horizontal rows from sternum hight with my straps and handles yesterday and that really seemed to pump some...
Thanks Al! Yeah more rest for sure. Gonna take a week or two off until ALL the soreness is gone hopefully. I think I got into this mess by doing too many ladder-type workouts. I'm also 44 so maybe I...
No, I keep a slight kink. Did the doc mean like specific hang holds? How long did your tendinitis last?
Thanks for you response!
Don't do 'em. Maybe I should....
Hi Guys, I'm trying to up my pullups numbers for the upcoming PCC and I'm really having trouble with my biceps and forearms doing pullups. For a while it was just the right arm but now it's getting...
I think it's a great idea! I would still peruse all the forums but makes sense to me.
Complete step 2 at sternum hight and then add step 3.
No man. Hit sternum hight and then add the vertical pulls. I specifically wrote to Wade about this scenario. He told me to start working vertical pulls (it is a weakness of mine) but still keep doing...
You gotta find away to start at sternum hight. Get a doorway pullup bar and attach shipping straps with homemade PVC handles looped though. Costs ~35 bucks.
Start with feet under the bar and...
Yes I read that Andrew. I like where your coming from. In fact that blog post is what got me to thinking about it! Thanks again man!
Thank you Dennis, Andrew and Chris! This gives me plenty! Much appreciated!
Hi Guys, I know there have been some links posted before. Could someone direct me to a simple program for a guy who hasn't run in years and years? I need to improve my stamina and swinging a KB is...
No I agree man! The order you laid out is how I would do it too. Pullups last is just sinister! But then again, that's probably the point LOL!
Hey Pipes! Well as far as training, I can tell one thing: CC2 grip work is gonna be key. I can do the 20 hanging knee raises. The challenge will be how do I then do 10 pullups with my grip fried? I...
Hi Al! Really looking forward to meeting and learning from you, your brother and Adrienne! One last question: do we have a choice of palms in or out for pullups? I've been working various grips but...
Wow! This seems really interesting. Is this "100" done all reps consecutively? If so, the grip will be fried leg raises through pull-ups.
Also, what depth will the pushups be done to?
After...
Keep up the great work man!
Thanks fellas! Investigating a doc. This is gone on too long...
Hi Guys, I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this. I seem to have strained a tendon that runs from below my elbow up into the bottom right corner of my right bicep. I believe I injured...
People have done different things. Me personally, I used five minute breaks. The whole thing took about 21 minutes for the five sets.
Yep! I can do more chins than pulls but it works for both.
I have all of the DVDs (five released so far) and only on the very first one--the push-up DVD--is timing mentioned. Here is a reasonably exact quote from the narrator (Duchane): "Use the 2-1-2...
Thanks guys! I'm using a 20K presently. I think a few years ago I went too heavy too soon, so I dialed it back to a 16K and decided to buy the 20 before jumping back to the 24.
I'm 5'9" ~175
Hey Comrades, so I'm really into swinging and especially with the one arm swings (thanks Rif!) my back is really feeling better.
I've been doing intervals of 30:30 and working up to about 38:22...
Anybody try this method? Thoughts?
That was a terrific read! Thanks for sharing!
That's gotta be different for everybody. I'm pretty sure I could knock off let's say 40 pushups but no way could I do 13 pull-ups (not yet anyway but I'm getting close to that many chin ups).
50 pushups at CC tempo is stunning to me! Awesome work! Don't know which pullup grip you use Dennis, but I switched to the chin grip and its been a lifesaver. I'll say Wade mentions to pick the most...
Vertical pulls with one arm.
Swings! I've been doing CC (right now limited to pushups and pull-ups. The three movements have been awesome!
