Hermans had me doing only singles and doubles everyday for the past few weeks. Been going great. And I got on pancakes for cinco de mayo. Will make a post about my experience after qualifier finals
@@Davidlujo im not sure where i started, but i got to 90-95lbs after training it nonstop in the first 7/8 months. then i stopped training it for a while
Hey Brad! I read your comment on overall training strategy. You mentioned focusing on two of three key lifts a day (either pronation, rise, internal rotations). I think we can see your preferred rise lift, but if you had to pick a favorite for both pronation, and internal rotation, what would those exercises be? Thanks very much if you get time to answer!
@@Pat_Burke2323 internal rotation would be similar to the vids i put out with "playing with xxxlbs" , always high cup for me but most hookers focus on cup set with their fingers facing their opponents. Pronation i rarely do now, have replaced it with double strap (hand and wrist) back pressure
I can just explain it here. I do around 30-40 sets a day, everyday. I try to stick to singles and doubles at most, unless I’m training a new movement. The exercises consist of 3 key lifts (pronation, rise, internal rotation). I’ll generally focus on 2 In any given day (ex. 10 reps of int. rot, 30 reps of pronation). The exercise is not always the same. For ex. Some times I will do Zoloev style int. rot. And sometimes I will just do high angled pulley cup to chest. I do accessory work such as pull-ups but that’s mainly to fix some back injuries I have and I don’t think it’s necessary for the program. Since I know I will have to workout the next day, I train accordingly usually lifting anywhere from 80-95% of max for a rep. I generally take 5-15 min between sets which keeps me in the gym around 6-7 hours a day. I also have backup bpc, tb, and peg mgf if I need it but haven’t so far. I drink Glucosamine everyday and it helps a bunch. I got on pancakes for the first time a few days ago so my recovery times are likely to change as they kick in. I think this program is possible completely natural but you have to be very smart about not overtraining , have a lot of free time, and maximize recovery with things like (sleep, fish oil, clean eating, etc).
@@bradgrundy512 Ik I asked a question already but how do you train your pronation through the thumb and if you do do you pronate your hand all the way or just keep it neutral?
@@constantgainz I don't usually train pronation but if i do my arm is neutral then i lift the weight with back pressure as i pronate my forearm about an inch. wrap is around base of thumb pad
@@bradgrundy512 Interesting. Couple of questions if you don't mind: 1. Is that a normal part of your program or was it an experiment? 2. How often do you do that (every day, every other day, ones a week)? 3. What's the intensity for these 40 sets (40%, 50%, 90%, 100% of 1RM)? 4. Do you do these just for static lifts (like that rising) or also for dynamic lifts (like for example the bench press)?
@@T12J7You can find the answers in my reply to another comment on here. i stopped doing it as the lifts didn't 100% translate and cause my technique to deteriorate. But solely for strength gains i had no issues i only do at most 3 exercises
solid!!
Monster 💪🏻
Man I like that setup!
I still come back to this video every now and then and still in Awee… I’m at 83lb… which is a 4lbs increase in months of training hahaha
took me 3 years to go from 100 to 110 💀
@@bradgrundy512 how much improvement in the riser lift did you make on your first 2 years?

Them finals gonna be goooddd, good luck!
Hopefully people show up, heard a bunch of guys aren’t making it

Impressive brother
Can you do a video explaining some of your training style / programming

Wow man ! Impressive. How can you afford spending that much time in the gym ? Are you earning enough from armwrestling ?
@@melinfrancois7683 lol not at all. I'm a student. The army pays for my housing and school so atm I dont need to work.
Cool🤠🥳👍👍👍👍👍
Hey Brad when you do this lift are you rising your knuckles all the way up or just keeping your hand straight
@@constantgainz Hand straight, none of the tension is in the top of the wrist
@@bradgrundy512 alright thank you

Hey Brad, can you go over some of your thoughts about the match you had in Korea with Ji Hyunmin?
Sorry, I just saw the video uploaded prior to this where you mention your thoughts! I'll just go watch that. Thanks
Why have you added the band? So you almost hit a wall as you pull it further and have to max out?
@@hussainmirza10 ran out of weight
I did this lift only 44lbs and my index knuckle hurts after a few days of doing it. Is the pain normal or am I just overdoing it?
If the knuckle hurts your band/belt might be the issue. Mine is super soft, thin, and 2 inches wide. Could always wear gloves
@@bradgrundy512 Oh yeah I haven't thought about that. Thanks man 👍
Brad you lifted 100lbs pure riser?
yeah, plus band
You do 40 sets a day? What?
