I don't know B, those VP's look like they put your back in a bad position.

How so??? What OHP movt doesn't put your back in an arched position???

It is an event at Boston (pending I get sponsor $$ to make it) with 275 for max reps in 60 seconds.

those talons look killer !

Bfold what exactly do the talons do? I assume workout your grip and forearm right? I don't have talon's but I have started to use towels to hang on and they fry my forearms.

my gym has a machine kinda like this, it has 2 separate
cables, that you pull down in a chin movment...pretty neat machine.

You can do lots with them. Chins, rows, shrugs, deads, timed holds, etc... You can put them on different digits on the fingers too...or just a couple fingers instead of all of them.

I like them also because I can do chins with a palms facing grip...that grip feels REALLY GOOD on my lats.

Did I mention that I am sore? Shoulders, triceps (a lot), lats...love it.

Was thinking about doing some front squats with my Viking Press next week. I could hold the handles, lower it down LOW, and squat with it...
