Week 1 Day 6

Blob w/ Left - first week down, and definately stronger. My negative hold got closer to 1 sec. So after the workout i did some misc lifting. Then i tried my #45 (half a #90). Before this week my best was 1" off the ground 1 time, thats it. Tonight i did a full DL with a hold at the top. Damn!!! Never before with my left. Basically that tied my PR i had with my right hand. Incredible !!! And that was after the workout. This really works, i ned to send Rick a PM to thank him.

Grippers w/ Right - the tape is really helping my hand, i wish i would have done that from the beginning. And i really think i'll be able to close the #4 for my Negatives. (it would show progress)

Sledge - I tried resting my arm over a chest freezer, considering thats the style for Gripmas. I warmed up with the short 15 lb'r. 2 sets of 5. then i did 2 sets of 1 with the 16 lb'r. No big deal, just wanted to mess around. I'll try and get serious next week and do reps with the 16. And once i get 5 sets of 5 with the 16, i'll bump up to the 20. The biggest thing is i need a spotter because when the sledge it straight up and your arm is resting on something, it is real easy to loose control and i do not want to get injured. (That happens anyway) Bottom line i will do the sledge work like kettlebell presses.
