We discussed Dimel DLs briefly in the Training section not too long ago. 

A Dimel deadlift is the top part of a deadlift. Start the bar at the top and drop down to just below the knees and rebound back up as fast as you can.

RDL - Hips pushed way back, bar never leaves the legs.

Dimel -  Bar at the top and drop down to just below the knees and rebound back up as fast as you can.

Louie does the Dimel as a restorative movement to flush it with blood.  Quick and high (20) reps.  Something if you were to train pulling a few times a week you can do like reverse hype.  He did those when he had the disc problem and still pulled big a meets

So I had a question regarding the reverse band stuff, since you're the king of half reps and making lifts easier. 

When I start doing these, does that also mean that I have to wear the same outfit as my wife like you do?  I mean same shoes, jeans and shirt basically.  At least you guys can just share a closet!

I believe they can be described like so:

Sitting on the end of a flat bench with a pair of dumbbells beside your feet, reach down with straight arms and a neutral spine and lift the dumbbells in one motion to your shoulders.  Set the dumbbells down in their original position and repeat as necessary.

That's what you are talking about, right?

Mark,

What is the purpose of performing the dumbbell bench presses for two continuous minutes?  One minute I get, but two minutes seems like a long time for a thrower at any time of the year.  Also, I assume you trying to get AMRAP in the given time frame and increase that number over time, right?  Otherwise, why use a time period as opposed to a rep number?

How wide ARE your hands apart on the SGDLs anyway?

World record caber toss?  What?

I have received no invite to a caber competition.  Maybe they looked in the database and saw all the people that have had more caber points than I have in that last couple years?  I think they are all named Dan McKim, lol.  This is the first I've heard of it, I must be out of the highland games loop.

I think it is too see how many cabers can be turned at one time.  Dave Garman does it every year at Costa Mesa.  It's actually a good way to get injured.  I think we are doing it at Vegas instead.

I would like to see that as well.

And if that's a legit front, which I assume it is, then there is really no excuse for your WOB.

How tall was the box?  Did you sit on it or just touch it?

DE LOWER
Box squats w. 350# + 2 blue bands on each side..8x2
hang hi pulls worked up to 355 for a bunch of singles
ghr and russian twists

this is where the band tension starts to get sick....it slings you down on the box so u have to fight it down and then explode up...if ur slow at all ur goin right back down to the box....first time ive been sore in the hammys since last year at about this stage.

DE UPPER....KINDA
i did the NFL bench test today just cause ive never tried it got 25 reps. i basically stopped when my chesticles started to burn...probably could have pushed it into the 30s

then i did something very gay...gayer then Kerrys socks or Hadleys skipping in a corner. i did the crossfit 7 mn burpee test for the open on a bet. I did 67 which for a guy who hasnt done a burpee or cardio since high school id say is respectable.

ill b wayyy less gay on tuesday.
