I want to take a minute to recognize somebody, named Mike Hagios.
I’ve known Mike for over a year now, and I want to give this guy a massive hand.
When I first met him, he was well over 300lbs and he had just recently decided to make changes in his life, his diet, and had just begun lifting seriously.
He just sent me a picture wearing the Diesel 3-Leaf Clover Shirt, and I was truly blown away.
It’s been a while since I’d seen him, and when I saw how trim he was looking, I was so proud of him for all of his dedication and hard work.
This dude not only hits the weights, but he routinely swims and has even started practicing jiu jitsu. Plus, he even has a group of people he trains with, and helps them with their training and weight loss goals, too.
On top of how well he’s doing with his diet and training, this fella ALWAYS has a smile on his face, and I’ve never heard him say a single bad word about anybody.
I feel honored that Mike ordered not 1, but 2 of the Diesel 3-Leaf Clover Shirts.
In fact, I’d say that Mike personifies EXACTLY what this shirt is all about.
You see, Mike doesn’t just “wish for weight loss.” He isn’t seeing his results because he’s “lucky.”
Mike goes after it and makes it happen.
Mike doesn’t need luck to reach his goals, because he puts in the work.
The common belief is a 4-leaf clover is good luck, because it’s rare.
Well, I say people like Mike are rare. Most people want everything handed to them, and they’re unwilling to lay it on the line for their goals.
The back of this shirt says “Who Needs Luck?”
Because, who needs to depend on luck, when your MINDSET, your MEALS, and your TRAINING are all where they need to be?
I know there’s a TON of you out there who approach training, eating and life in this manner, and you can show it with this awesome shirt.
Order yours TODAY and show people that with all you do, all your preparation, your discipline and desire, you don’t need luck to reach your goals!
No Luck Needed
Orange Print with Orange Arm Trim:
Keep up the good work, Mike! Just a little ways to go until you reach your goal, brother – I know you can do it!
All the best in your training, Diesels!

I recently released a new tee-shirt: Crushin’ Grippers Like It’s My Job.
These shirts are printed by a friend I’ve recently met, named Bob Marean.
These are not screen-printed shirts, and are not direct-to-garment.
The process actually involves first printing the design to a sheet of paper using special ink, then placing the sheet on top of of the shirt, and inside a special heated press for about 20 seconds.
The shirts are done in less than 2 minutes.
Below are the colors that are available.
Blizzard Steel Grey
Terra Yellow
Most Tee-Shirts ship within a day. They can take longer if they are out of stock. Getting a shirt back in stock only takes a few days though. Please feel free to email with any questions: jedd dot diesel at gmail dot com.
Thanks, and all the best in your training.

I am getting in a small inventory of new Halloween shirts tomorrow. They are all Black with White Ink and they will ship out on Monday. The phrase above will be on the back. And this will bee on the Front.
PR’s are guaranteed in each shirt, just ask Josh McIntyre, who dominated the Two 45’s Pinch with his Old School Diesel Skull Shirt.
From Josh: “There’s power in these shirts I bought from you.”
Prepare for PR’s if you get these shirts…

If you are not familiar with Hub Lifting, it is a form of Pinch Grip Training where you lift a plate by its center hub with your fingers and thumb in a Claw Grip.
This can be a very fun and beneficial form of training, but it can also be frustrating as hell, too! A lot of whether you can lift a plate by the hub depends on the finish of the paint, moisture in the air, actual shape of the hub, etc.
In addition to lifting plates by their hubs, there are also hub lifting devices that are sold and used in conjunction with loading pins. IronMind sells one that offers a large gripping area.
Also, the Shallow Hub is a lift in some legs of the World’s Strongest Hands Series, shown in the bottom left of the above picture.
The next leg of World’s Strongest Hands is September 10th and I have got plenty of room if you want to compete.
The Shallow Hub is NOT an event at Leg 2, but you can click the link to see what the events are! Worlds Strongest Hands Leg 2
Have a great weekend, DIESELS!

Hello DIESEL’s!
Check out this video of a hardcore Diesel Bending Maniac putting his Diesel threads in ACTION!
This is Carl Donati Jr, and he is putting a serious hurtin’ on an FBBC Golden Bastard with single IMP’s in less than 30 seconds.
Notice the killer Diesel Shirt that Carl is sporting! There’s at least one PR in every shirt, GUARANTEED.
In case you are not familiar with all of the terminology included here, I will explain.
Bastard – 7″ Bar from FBBC. Once bent, you attain the title, Bastard. This bar takes roughly 480=lbs to bend, as measured with the recognized method that was designed (to the best of my knowledge) by Eric Milfeld.
Golden Bastard – 3/8″ Diameter Brass Bastard Bar. Once bent you attain the title Golden Bastard.
IMP’s – Iron Mind Pads (the blue cordura wraps from IronMind Enterprises that must be used for their Red Nail Certification)
Single IMPS’s – This is to show that only one IMP is used per end of the bar. IMP’s are about 12-inches wide and are usually folded in twice before wrapping. Despite this “layering” of these “pads”, they give you very little actual padding – there is still a significant pain factor going on.
As you can see, Carl knocked this out of the park and surely qualified for the certification list at FBBC.
There are actually many, many (MANY) lists that are kept all over the internet for bending, nails, bolts, and various types of steel, stainless, and brass bars, among other things. It’s crazy how much the sport has evolved in the last few years.
Nail Bending isn’t just about wrapping the nail, bar, or bolt with as much padding as possible and bending it. There are many recognized methods, each varying in difficulty, pain tolerance, and other factors.
If you want to get started with Bending like this, then here is how you can do it…
Also, to pick up your own Diesel shirt, check out this post: Diesel Crew Tee Shirts. They actually do come with sleeves. Carl’s guns tore threw them in a previous bending PR and they have since vaporized.
All the best in your training,
Jedd
