Whatâs up man? Itâs good to see you posting again. And good to see you doing curls, and wrist curls to prepare for more curls!
I was doing some DB and KB cleans the other day, and my arms were For Sure the weak link. And I figured if I was trying to clean really heavy DBs, I would need way stronger biceps and forearms. I thought of you, and I even thought about tracking you down to talk about it.
Then I looked, and saw you were doing the curls already! Weird!
Anyway, I like your plan.
Dankeschön. Thanks. I need to do prehab in case I get injured bending the harder Powertwister. I have not bought it yet. I got two injuries, a bad wrist injury along with my forearm and bad bicep tendonitis near the shoulder joint . I have recovered now.
I have not been training for a few months due to illness in the family .
Are you still practicing your English daily. It is really good now.
Are you still doing strongman?
Ich sollte mein Deutsch verbessern, ich bin aber zu faul. Es gibt coole Federn in Deutschland, die man biegen kann. Sie sind die chinesischen Federn verschieden .
I hope you can understand my German. It needs a lot to be desired.

Wrist pronations and supinations are good for injury prevention. Thatâs how I moved to next Powertwister level safely. It is a wrist-centric movement.
We can discuss training any time. Cleaning to two dumbbells at the same time is difficult.
I do it strictly hold the DBs by my side.
Some people hold them out in front of themselves, as if they were doing a kettlebell double clean. I have not got the hang of that yet. Others still cheat the dumbbells up with their knees to jerk or press heavier dumbbells than they can clean. I have not tried that yet.
