This is what a 165lbs Turkish Get Up looks like

by adam on September 6, 2008

Here are the highlights from todays workout. Plate curls are getting stronger. My neck work is improving every week. I will break the 200lbs ceiling in the get up when this left arm is healed and i can put some real force through the shoulder.

Also, the Strongergrip.com Wrist developer is AWESOME. Email Ryan and tell him to make you one.

Adam,amazing on the get-up!Did you check in to the art therapy?Sent you an email also but not sure if you received it.

Yes my chiro has been breaking me hard on it. I have a lot of the ROM and Strength returnin on the left side. For now i simply do extended get ups with a light KB to flush it with blood and get a solid stretch

Thanks bro

I tell you what Adam, that TGUP was impressive, but the way you just destroyed those Bikes just baffles me.

I was suprised because when i filmed it yesterday the deck popped right out of my hands as i tore them.

I see all these guys Twisting dollar store decks, but hand them bikes and ask them to rip them and they fail.

It really gets down to a critical difference. I am not a “gripguy” i am a strongman. I see a lot of little clowns use some slanderous terms towards real strongmen because they think Grip is the same. It is not. As you begun your own journey, i want you to remember what i told you and consider this part of that conversation.
