Guarden’s Focused Strength

Just got some jumpstretch in different sizes. What an amazing training device, makes it possible to train for the One-Arm pullup, in my oppinion the most impressive feat for upper body athleticism. Take a look at the video below which contains a max-attempt for dips + extra weight and some assisted one-arm pullups.

5 x bw+25kg
3 x bw+35kg
2 x bw+45kg
1 x bw+65kg

Then I practiced for the one-arm pullup. The great thing with these elastics is, that they will help you in the hardest part of the exercise, in this case the bottom position where interaction between the myofilaments is mostly compromised.

Performed something like:

2/2 reps x 2 x 4

Tough!!

In the weekend I was out teaching new fitness instructors and included some additional One-arm pullups and One-arm pullups with resistance. A way to increase the difficulty level of the One-arm pushup. I will upload a video of it later during the week.
Besides that it can be used to assist people who are not yet strong enough to perform the one-arm pushup by winding the jumpstretch under the torso mounted to i.e. a pullup bar or the smith-rack. Finaly found something appropriate it could be used for
