As of early 2013, we are still in the process of rebooting unto the new platform

If you want to keep track of the relaunch you can:

  1. Like us on Facebook
  2. Follow us on Twitter
  3. Send me (Kris) an e-mail and let me know that you'd like to join the new site when it is ready.

Once we are ready to relaunch, we will start spreading the word. Until then, expect silence to mean we are heads down coding. :) The forum is still open for active members, but don't expect a lot of activity here since meets are currently on hold.

14.12.2007:

Front Squat: 3 x 6 @ 90 kg
Bench Press: 2 x 6 @ 110 kg
Pause Squat (ATG, 3-5 sec pause): 3 x 3 @ 60 kg (These feel really good and make you focus on form. Thanks Ryan for the inspiration!)
BB Military Press: 8 x 2 @40 kg
After each Military Press set I walked around the room with the weight overhead, elbows locked. It works a  real good sweat, especially on the second set. There is an article on t-nation.com which I read yesterday that has this in it.

Some virus knocked me out this week. I should be back under the bar tommorow or Sunday. I can't wait, since the training gets now more and more interesting as th intensity increases.

For the March event I will probably run another of this russian cycle ( this time hopefully without interruptions). After that I do like to change some parameters around to adapt the program.

Out of curiosity, are you holding the bar with arms crossed or in your hands weightlifting style? Personally I prefer the arms crossed version, if I drop the bar from there  it is because the floor is approaching my nose fast.  Roll Eyes I got myself a Sting Ray about a year ago, but came to the conclusion that I still like the "RAW"-somewhat-painful way better than the comfy-sting-ray way... Still, it's a really good piece of equipment that does what it promises extremely well.

I do it in the weightlifting style. These really hurt my wrists though. I will try the arms crossed version or the weightlifting style but with the help of 2 towels. I seem to lack some flexibilty, but I do not want to be held back by it.
Thanks for the links. I plan to do front squats next week but then switch to back squats.

I also do mine "weightlifting style" or with a clean-grip and I have the same problem.  For me, really focusing on pushing your elbows toward the ceiling helps.  Plus if you lean forward just the slightest it tends to put more pressure on the wrists.
