Another thing that you will find is a ton of great free video clips. When we develop new exercise variations, we post them. When we perform cool feats of strength, we post them. Keep coming back to see our videos and subscribe to our YouTube Channels.

Speaking of videos,we were one of the first strength training teams to put out videos on the internet. Back before YouTube was taking the internet by storm, we were editing videos and putting them to hard core metal head banging music, and streaming them off our site.

Success in Card Tearing – Barry Gibson

Thursday, July 16th, 2009

Hey everybody, it’s Jedd checking in.

Hey, before I get into this post, does anybody know where I can pick up a pair of boots like this?

frederickwintersduring1904summerolympics-main_full

That is an image of Frederick Winters from the 1904 Summer Olympics. Seems like a crazy get-up for the summer time, but to each his own.

Speaking of summer, I hope everybody’s summer is rolling smooth. We have had a cool and rainy one here in Pennsylvania, but that seems to be turning around now.

Tonight it was so hot in my new garage that sweat was dripping off my head onto everything I was trying to lift in the gym. I was trying to pinch 3-25’s plus weight, but didn’t quite get a full pull and my camera battery was dead so I have no video anyway. It was so hot, even with shorts and a tee shirt on, i still felt like I was wearing ol’ Frederick’s wardrobe shown above.

How Twitter Will Unite the Grip Strength Community

Monday, July 13th, 2009

griptweet

By Shane Swing

Grip strength training can be a lonely endeavor. Unlike team sports, usually a grip strength practitioner undertakes his obsession by himself in a dusty basement surrounded by storage boxes, or in a small portion of the garage that’s just big enough to house a garage gym. When he beats a personal record, the radio and perhaps a pet are the only things around to share in his excitement. When he hears terms like hub lifts, pinch grip, CoC #4, or sledgehammer leveraging, he understands perfectly. When he tries to explain these terms to his friends and family, they rarely understand (or want to for that matter).

Napalm Jedd vs The Iron Tamer

Monday, June 8th, 2009

In the video below, I mentioned that I got the chance to finally meet David Whitley at the Fast Track seminar in New Jersey last weekend.

I never knew that Dave was actually a pro wrestler on the Indy circuit back in the day and we shot the sh*t about that for a while. I learned a bunch of stuff about the wrestling business and how the moves are choreographed. If you were there, you probably saw us doing some collar and elbow tie-ups and some Irish whips. That was cool.

David’s specialty is kettle bells and he is a Senior RKC, but he also does some nail bending and card tearing. Here’s a little video we shot out in the hallway where we bent a 60D nail using a technique that you probably haven’t seen before.

Check it out.

Believe me, it ain’t all fake, brother. My ribs, collar bone, spine and sternum all adjusted on that elbow drop…

I put him over strong this time, but next time it’s gonna be a different story.

Card Tearing Video Testimonial

Sunday, April 5th, 2009

I recently happened upon this video clip on YouTube from Rob Russell. This guy is a strong kettlebeller, and I am very pleased to get this kind of a testimonial from an athlete of his caliber.

The thing about tearing cards is that it seems like you can get it done by just grabbing the deck and twisting, but if you do that, you are going to pop the outside cards and make it hard to maintain your grip on the deck. There are techniques you need to know to make the process easier, and I will show them to you.

Plus, the exercise index features dozens of movements you can easily implement into your current training. You can use equipment you already have and stuff that is lying around in your garage. I’m talking boards, chains, dowel rods – all these things can be used to develop hands that will RIP STUFF UP!

All the best in your training,

-Jedd-

P.S. As you can see in the post below, I am running a special on the eBook this weekend – just $25 for about 24 more hours.
