7AM

45 Degree Hypers, Reverse Hypers

Grip Training

Right - Plate pinching
Left - Blob50 Pinching
Glove work

Finding it increasing difficult to push on. Our Blob replica is meaningless, our
#3 grippers are not "Silvercrush", we do not possess a Grip King sign. We
are slowing coming to the realization that we may never achieve legend status.

The spirit of Bob Hoffman is tormenting our dreams with tauntings that he reserved
anoriginalfatmanyorkblob for one person only. Our hemlock awaits.

The Tex Blob thread can now officially be declared a pig-fuck ;)
We have learned one thing from it. Legends tend to cling to the past.

We will state this again for the newbies:
If you are dominating a York50 or a Blob50 replica, and spend some time with
a old orange patina York blob - YOU WILL LIFT IT.

If you are on the GB Blob list, hold your head high. If you lift alone in your garage
and have achieved the Blob feat, stand proud. You are strong. If someone tells you
different, tell them to get fucked.

Thursday - 5/29

5AM

We gazed upon the shimmering Eastern sky, while encompassing our fragile
soul in solemn humility. We quietly contemplated on what spurious tales of wonder we
will be blessed with today from the keeper of the most holy Fat man Blob.

Well our "legend" is convinced that a "Genuine York Blob" can only be owned by a select few.
We now have jumped on the bandwagon, and have thrown our Blob50's in the trash and we encourage everyone in gripdom to follow suit. ;) We also recommend that the GB remove all honorees from the Blob lists except for certified legends.

After all, most of the lifts were done using Plain York Blobs which are only 65% of the
"Genuine Fatman Legend Blob". We are simply fooling ourselves. ;) ;)

We wonder what some legends secretly think about the MashMonster list? ;)

Sit back and enjoy watching this guy implode as he gets closer to self parody.

Tuesday - 5/27

Took the day off from the weights. Grabbed the dog at 5AM, fired up a La Gloria #5 and went for a quick walk.


It is humerous to see that our "grip legend" has lifted his puny York Blob (we are beginning to think that is is half of a York 90 dumbbell ;) ), and has determined that is is indeed 65% of the
"biglieineedtostayrelevantatallcostsfatmanblob". Funny we do not feel 35% weaker here. ;)

OK - We take a few days off and what happens to our beloved Grip Forum?
The charlatan of grip - Timmy/Samuel/Steels/Colon Cleanse is a member again and
true to form he is posting videos of #4 closer Dave M as is own.

The legend of grip has stated that regular blobs are 65% as hard has the thebiglieFatMan Blob
(pedantic nonsense that one is 65 points the other 100) yet his star pupil can only manage an additional 10 pounds on either blob. We blame the public school system for this horrendous math error.

It's sad, many grip newbies got their start from Brookfield's "Mastery of Hand Strength". We, like most, were left with a sense of awe due to his treatment of this "legend", now all we have is someone trying to stay relevant by discounting others far greater achievements.

The grip-world is a fucking disgrace. ;)

Operational Pause and Blob Lunacy

We are smoking and drinking in parts unknown. The rain was to much of a drag to stay home.

Good to see "legends" continue to demean those unlucky to have a legengary fat man blob.

All blobs vary abit. The one you work with all the time is going to feel different than a strange one. But with time and work the strange one will become familiar. We think that this is the case with the "bigliefatmanblob". We will begin to see that as the bigliefatmanblob receives more attempts, it will just become another blob.

We will stand be past statements - If you are dominating a Blob/Blob50, you are doing fine. Ignore the noise.

We'll make do with just dominating "The Peoples" Blob50 with small hands. ;)
