Grip’n Guns

January 28, 2026

Superset

Sissy Squat +25 x 3 x 8r

Kneeling Cable Crunch 120 x 3 x 10r

W3 50/20 press. 

50/20 AD Press 80k x 37r (33/37r last session. Added reps to the first couple of sets then lost reps towards the end due to fatigue. Might be jab residual)

BB Hammer Curl 37.5k x 3 x 10r

Between sets

2-3/8" Wrist Wrench holds 55 x 7 x 0:07 - progressing quickly as grip hasn't been specifically trained in years. Also chalked on a ABS implement isn't ideal

Stopped early. Might try a session tomorrow.
