Training is going great.

I have unpacked my computer and digital cameras. I will be online at the house after the 17th this month. Lots of things to put on this blog when i get it up and running.

I have switched my close stance duck style dead lift to the the round back style, and it has made huge differences in the amount of weight i can lift and the volumes i can work with. I also get much great quad involvement and lat work with it. I finally have found the best leverage for that lift. In the next year i will surpass my old PRs by 50 or more pounds.

I have to set up my squat racks this weekend to get back under the bar. In the mean time i have been using KBs for front squats and weighted pistols.

I have been using the clubbells 4 days a week for arm casts, swipes, flag presses and some torch presses. I think they are really great tools, and every bit as good as Scott Sonnon has said.

Having my heavy KBs is awesome. I very much love my 56kg KB for swings. I use the power bomb technique described in Dieselcrew’s Advanced kettlebell Ebook Vol. II. There is so much power production with that technique.

bending has been better then ever. James Smith from the DieselCrew sent me some high quality leather wraps, and leather wraps are outstanding. Gr8′s used to be very hard using the IM hand pads, now i am slamming them shut in seconds. I have been several red nails in one work out, some 5/16×6″ bolts, and one 70D nail.

Over all things are great, i will post videos to back up my talk in the coming weeks.
