The Andersson Chronicles

[Daniel Andersson]

After trying them on...I can without a doubt say that they are much better then those I used before...and they support the wrist much better..I could actually use these as wrist support aswell..they are that stable

That was it for today. I got a really good pump and burn in my chest and triceps, And I got really good contact with my back doing the deads and hyperextensions Those new weight lifting straps are awesome
Works good as wriststraps also

 

[PrinceVegeta]

Nice session there DA!! good job man!! glad those wrist straps are doing u good!

 

[Mikew]

Very good deads Daniel. But dont forget to do them without straps as well, otherwise your grip is gonna get weaker and weaker.

I have always got a weak grip...I've busted up my left ringfinger..so I have close to no grip at all.

Last time I tested without straps was 2 weeks ago up to 120kg I think it was..slipping like crazy.

Powerful deaddies sweadie

Getting close to doing BW for reps I see

Why do you use straps for deads?

It feels more comfortable..and I can go heavier cause I dont have to worry about my grip slipping..max I've done without straps is 160kg for 1 rep.
With straps I can do over 10 reps on 160kg. Max with bad straps is 240kg.

I just kept going at 200kg today..I would never have got 5 reps with my old straps...The only reason I stopped at 5 reps todays was cause I was starting to lose the arch in my back

strong deads DA. great session overall

 

[Daniel Andersson]

Thanks man

I feel ya on the weak grip. I've been doing a lot of stuff I used to do with straps strapless, but it's slow-going. Plus you've got that old injury. I still use straps on deads over about 120 kg, and on a few other things, too.

Great deads daniel! Very good use of energy in that session. Your kickin ass brother!

Straps are necessary for me...I just cant lift without them..I've tried to train without them, but it doesn't work

 

[Rocky]

Quality deads. Truly superb. I use straps for the same reason - won't get the reps otherwise and as much as I want toimprove my grip I'd rather do supplementary grip work rather than have my back work suffer.

 

[Daniel Andersson]

Thanks

And Im dead...I dont feel my arms nor shoulders..and my back feels dead too.
Just crossed my mind....I already did deads earlier this week
That explains the loss of "power". I tried Spidercurls today, really good exercise..one I'm going to keep doing for sure. New PB in skullcrushers..even though the last two reps was bad.

 

[Glex]

Yeah you did Those days are good every once in a while, though.

@ the one very failed rep.

Nice job on the PBs

 

[Daniel Andersson]

Thanks Glex

 

[Rocky]

Sweet Lord Almighty!?! Went crazy - just a little. That's a lot of work on big muscle groups to get done in one session - not least getting a PB aswell!

Quality job on the deads even without the fail!
