    As an aside I did 3 singles with 4-5lbs less than what I think is the official record on the 2" v-bar during my second time of training the lift this very evening... cos I is brutal ha ha. According to the FBBC site it's 289 and I did about 285lbs for 3 x 1 reps

    We have a scaffold bar affixed in our gym so ours are done on a 2" bar. Anything from 30-1 min 30 is cool. 2.5inches, plus 25 and for 1 min is good.

    Among the long list of fucked up shit I did today was a bar hand against another equally heavy (280) guy and I kicked his ass with 1.05. I had LOADS left ha ha. I was even fucking with him as we hung there ha ha.

    good find bro.
    on a side note, I got a piece of 2.25 inch PVC today that was just layin around the gym. SO I am going to cut (2) 6" pieces then attach a rope or chain through each one so I can make a handle.
    Exercise 1 - Attach each one to the cable crossover unit and practice the hercules hold. The stack (with normal handles) is not bad, but I have a feeling with a 2.25" grip it'll get pretty rough.
    Exercise 2 - Practice the one hand deadlift thingy. we already have a pin to load plates on so we just need the handle. (is kind what the rolling thnder is like?)
    Anyway I am pretty excited about the Hercules hold idea. I think it will be challenging with that thick of a grip and if it works well, it will be a cool addition to our annual charity event we do.
    Just doin' my thing.

    Mobster,

    I currently have the COC #1 and can close it for 10-15 reps consistently. I ordered the COC #2 and #3 which should arrive tomorrow. Do you think based on where I am at now, that it would be at all possible (with hard consistent training) to close the COC #3 by August?

    Thanks man! It is much appreciated!
