Its a 4" PVC pipe I believe, I forget. It works well but when my hands get sweaty it gets hard to use, and i dont always have chalk on hand.

i was thinking putting some kinda of athletic tape around it to give it some 'curling' if anything but i dont know if thats the best option. that or use leather gloves when I wrist roll maybe?

serves me well either way. I forget how strong my hands/forearms are to people who dont train grip at all. A friend who lives nearby benches 20-30kg more than his bodyweight but his forearms and grip are weak. He can only close the CoC Trainer for 2-3 reps. I'm working on making him stronger in that department though, we grip train twice a week together now.

and yes, I was a chunky monkey at 125kg. good lord. I think 85kg will be a good weight for me to compete at when i start rolling again.

i haven't done grip training in a while. in fact, my grip is slowly falling behind my deadlift.

I've kept it up. I was in training for the QLD State BJJ titles before I did my knee in and put on about 5-10kg. So i was always running and my training grip. Kept the grip up after I did my knee as all I could do was really that and upperbody stuff for a few months till I got confirmed that I needed knee surgery. Lots of fun eh.

I want to close the CoC2 once before my birthday next month :S

my b-day is 21st of Sep, so here's hoping haha. It was one of my goals to get it closed by the end of the year.

Anyway

Friday 29th August

Squat

Warmup on bicycle 5 mins

2*5*Bar
3*40kg
3*70kg

5*5*90kg

Yay, I am at bodyweight.

SOHP

Warmup with some shoulder dislocations (may have done too many...)

2*5*Bar
3*35kg

2nd Attempt at 52.5kg

5*52.5kg
4*52.5kg
4*52.5kg
3*52.5kg
2*52.5kg

(last SOHP session was 5/4/5/4/4, this session 5/4/4/3/2)

Don't know what went wrong here. I do feel physically weak/sick today. Was coughing out flem between sets so not a good indication of health. My knee is also a bit infected, gotta go to the doctor today and get some anti-biotics hopefully. *sigh* Hopefully next week's SOHP session will be better.

Deadlift

1*5*155kg

Pullups (felt shit by now)

1*6
1*5
1*4

wanted to leave after the SOHP crap, probably should of had. meh.
