Great video, very comprehensive on the topic. Top notch.

Hey man, this is Cody from the good old Aiguille days. You randomly popped in my head and I wanted to leave a comment to say I hope all is going well with you these days. Injuries suck; I’ve been suffering from chronic lower back pain for years and had to stop climbing. I’m just now trying to get back into training pull-ups and one arms now. Maybe one day I’ll start climbing again. That’s great news you’re back up to v8! Keep on making content, you seem to enjoy it! Cheers mate and god bless

Thanks!

[@MichaelEckert]

Absolutely! Thanks for the support!! 🎉

[@liamb5791]

Thanks for the content Michael, I’ve been implementing more and more of your training style and Iv gotten a lot stronger, so thanks

[@MichaelEckert]

That’s awesome! So glad to hear it!

[@irenehowe7940]

Great video Michael

[@MichaelEckert]

Thank you!

[@Daegor1405]

Love the video streak!

[@MichaelEckert]

Workin on it!!

[@pmlc9999]

Hi - thanks for the great video. I also train grip and forearm strength. I think of forearm training as being all variations of flexion/extension radial and radial/ulnar and external/internal rotation of the wrist. For radial/ulnar our gym has a single roughly 12 inches long handle that can be attached at one end to cable machine. Wanted to add a photo but by varying where hand is placed and 1 plate or two on cable can vary resistance - was hoping for simplicity to attach photo of this nifty device.

Hey man, love your pull-up stuff. It’s helping me break 20 finally. Could you make a video on similar stuff to get to 100+ push-ups?

[@Fleppo]

Congrats to 20 pull-up barrier! Have you yet managed to pull of the one arm lock off? I’ve been able to do 20 pull ups for some while but the one arm lock off feels like a big mountain to like hold it 90° steady for 5 seconds

[@riverlayne]

This is a great video to prepare the arms when in a pull-up program and avoid tendonitis. Michael, do you plan to add more forearm specific programming to your Playbook App workouts?

[@MichaelEckert]

I might throw some specific exercises in there but it’s difficult to program an entire grip specific training. I’ll work on it though!

[@riverlayne]

That makes sense, these exercises will need speciality gear. Really appreciate this new Vlog series! @@MichaelEckert

How would one rehab a compound wrist fracture being for educational purposes only?

[@dragoph]

where is that wrist roller from?

[@weekendhero7411]

I hand wash my cast iron pots and pans. Wrists and forearms have gotten stronger. Not a rock climber - just some light free and body weight training.

our story goes same*sir!?

[@MichiMeenaMeenaMichi-m3u]

wow world Most handsome gentleman of My heart 💜💜💜💜.

[@I-am-Joe-Po]

19:50 I suppose I stress the same muscles doing exercise with regular plates

[@MichaelEckert]

Like during a wrist curl and a barbell?

[@I-am-Joe-Po]

@@MichaelEckert yeah wrist curl behind the back, no barbell, the palm is flat

[@MichaelEckert]

@@I-am-Joe-Po ohh I see that’s a great way to do a similar exercise. I just personally like to control the resistance as much as possible and with a pulley you can maintain even resistance the whole time. Same kinda principle of using a sledge hammer the weight changes through the range of motion. Either way that’s a great method I didn’t even consider!

[@I-am-Joe-Po]

@@MichaelEckert no pulley so have to find a solution among the things I have, your way is more preferable for sure
