Grip circuit was interesting some of the weights were abit too light but i was more interested in reps.Nice improvement in the hub plate lift, i think i could have gone to 30k if it wasnt for the earlier stuff

Nice work on the hub lifts Mark. What sort of plate did you do the 20 kg lift on? I've got and Ironmind hub lift attachment and none of my plates have a hub anything like it.

Thanks Mark
It was a tool Pullums made for me.Its basically a hub exactly the same as Ironminds but is welded to a plate metal plate with loading pins on each side , so the lift is started from the floor like a regular plate

Powerball 2sets

Superset

Skipping

Used the new 5 k bumpers for the snatch thanks to KingPin for the link for them.The Power snatch and o/head squat combo was tough.It was a good cardio workout and allowed me to practice the power snatch

Nice floor pressing! Do you happen to know where i can get some fat gripz within the UK mate?

Just from the U.S Sam I think, thats where I got mine however the package came from somewhere in the UK so there was no customs charge.Very fast delivery aswell

Thanks Mark. I need to get some for the DBs in the uni gym - i hate 1'' grips.

Sam
Make sure the handles on the dumbbells are more than 5" or they wont fit.They wouldnt fit on my legacy bells

Hypers bwx12,+5k plate x 10

Real good session today.I decided to do some different things for a change.The 98k press went up well which is an improvement and also done with a parallel grip bar which I find harder to press than a straight bar.
Some new Kettlebell PRs aswell with a 56k push press for an easy 2 and finally push pressed the 60k kettlebell easily for 1 ,I could not budge this bell before, I think if i could have racked it better there was maybe 2 reps in me but the size of it makes it difficult.
Also managed for the first time 5 5kg plates pinch loose.I could only do it with my weaker left hand The right would not have it and I only managed to break them from the floor.My hand position with the left felt more comfortable than the right.All in all a good day

Great work on the overhead and loose pinching Mark, have you got any grip goals?

Cheer Aaron. My grip goals are as from tonight a 5x5k pinch with the right hand
I also want a deadlift with the Heavy grip tools middle Inch bell and a blob 50 lift if possible
