It's actually 180 kg as the Olympic bar is 20 kg.

Christian - haven't you had shoulder reconstruction recently?

180 kg is a tidy bench press even if he is using a Smith machine Wink and especially as he's upside down on the incline bench  Huh?

Nice effort!!!

160 or 180kg is heavy as sh|t all day, all week. And that was one inclined bench!!  Grin

Let's start talking about reps in the disciplines Patrik will have in his event instead. How many reps do you guys benchpress on a flat bench with bodyweight? Olympic bar biceps curls ½ bw? Olympic bar standing press ½ bw? Deadlift 1.5xbw no straps? Dips?

 Cheesy

Ok here we go I'll start:

1) Free weight barbell flat bench press with 105kg around 15 reps
2) I never do olympic bar bicep curls (because that is the only excercise that has ever given me serious acute back problems)
3) Never do standing presses either because my shoulders don't like them
4) Deadlifts I very rarely do (somewhat more nowdays though because it's the off-season and I don't hit golf balls) but I can still power clean 125kg
5) Don't do dips either because of my shoulders but I believe the record is around 35 full reps. Tried them yesterday and after one set I moved on.

It would be interesting to see some vertical jump, medicine ball etc TPI test results from Gothenburg too. I am not sure but I have a feeling too many guys are focusing a bit too much on lifting and the "gym stuff" than becoming a better athlete, which in most cases would be much more beneficial for becoming a better long driver.

On the other hand everybody can train exactly how they want, it is not my business.

1.  perhaps 6 reps on my bw 97 kg Wink I have a big monkey ratio and I am 2m tall.
2.  I only do scottcurls with dumbells atm and it depends on how much I am allowed to swing the barbell Smiley My biceps are pretty strong Grin
3.  Did 5 reps with 57,5kg standing so I don't know maxreps on 0,5 bw.
4.  I probably max around 200kg now so i would probably do close to 15 reps with 150kg
5.  30 ? Last time i made around 25 I think, many months ago.
6.  I think I can do 5 reps on 140kg deep squat now. SQUATS FTW

My vertical jump is unknown. I can easily 2 hand dunk a basketball now at least Smiley Perhaps a windmill.

That is correct - I haven't seen you dunk in a long time because I've never seen you dunk!!!!!!!!!!  Shocked

you are correct Mr Glazier, was a little over a year ago that they surgically removed 1 inch of my collarbone...

wow...you guys are really in to this thread!!

KH - I think you are right! That´s why I combine working out HARD 3 times a week, with 1 time boxing, 2 times a week I do the 300 workout for endurance, and 2 times a week rowing/running/treadmill...

I am gonna throw in here a few thoughts:

Lets see how the SAID principle (Specific Adaptation to Imposed Demands) and that kind of "combine workouts" help you as a long driver more than just "normal" gym work.

What are the muscle firing patterns and biomechanics in each exercise that create the so called "kinetic chain" that is a must for any smooth power production, basically the same thing as "effortless power" what Jason Zuback talks about.

Endurance training helps you with what - walking to the tee box? Long days of hitting at Worlds? Helps you recover from hard hitting/gym workouts? Maybe, but not very important if you wanna get fast which is the same thing nowdays as having a chance at Worlds.

Boxing the same thing - you get very tired and build lactic acid in your muscles. That normally makes you only slower + how often do you hit tired in competitions? So where is the transfer to your sport - long driving?

Rowing...I very seldom row when I stand on the tee box. Neither do I run or ride the bike.

So back to the SAID principle: do that you wanna get better at, simple as that.

Didn't mean to put you down the Viking just saying that when you do exercises at the gym try to think a bit HOW and WHY those exercises affect your performance. Every exercise you do makes you better or worse because it affects you swing one way or another. Time spent in the gym has to be optimized because you have only X amount of time in the gym and it has to be spent wisely. X amount because you must have quality in what you do and not quantity which means you can't spent too much time at the gym.

You should do as "sport specific" exercises as possible is normally what trainers teach. There is little problem tough - it is almost impossible to do long driving specific exercises in the weight room. Sure, there are many fancy and complicated looking exercises that make the trainer look good because he makes his clients do them but after a little biomechanical analysis, analyzing the anatomy of the exercise and the muscles actions involved you realize that the exercises are worthless waste of time and often even have a high risk for injury. Doing for example different core rotation exercises have a high injury risk unless you can really control your hips, have strong inner core and good posture.

It's a real jungle when it comes to training and there are many different programs and methods that give great results. One thing is for sure though - you gotta find yours and stick to it.

It's like my former physical trainer from Finland said "the difference between the champions and the number two's is that the champs do the little things better than others". He is the expert commentator in Finnish TV during Olympic games and the best decathlonists coach in Finland.

Like I said just a few thoughts, didn't mean to be preaching  Wink
