Another great week here on Straight to the Bar (my copy of Full Throttle Conditioning arrived last night – review soon). Hitting the headlines :
- Articles : Jedd enjoys some grip training with a replica Inch Dumbbell, Chuck considers the importance of the Perfect Rep and Blaine takes a look at his favourite running forums.
- Videos : Mike enjoys a little kettlebell juggling, the second King of Stones event shows off some superb lifting and the Diesel Crew demonstrates several excellent sandbag training ideas in their Circuit for Grapplers.
- Ideas : Jason points to a couple of great variations on the burpee – the Burpee Backsault and the Burpee Snatch, the Diesel Crew demonstrates several excellent grip exercises – including the Around the World Plate Pinch and just when you thought you’d tried all of the pull-up variations, along comes the Pinch Grip Pull-up. Superb.
- Elsewhere : Betty Brawn is keeping Strongwoman shows very much alive, Rob Pilger is helping to keep boxers in good shape and Sally demonstrates what functional training is all about. Good stuff.
- Bonus : Via Gymnastics Coaching : a compilation from ‘The World’s Greatest Dunker’, France’s Kadoure Ziani. At only 5’11, he claims a 56″ vertical jump. Incredible.
