Piggie,

I know you aren't right now, but do you normally use it?

Forgive my ignorance, but what the heck is a maxi pull, I tried to google it but just got a bunch of pictures of feminine products

The Maxi-pull is a feminine product!!!

Jokes aside, is this contraption for sloper strength. Don't most hangboard come with a sloper or two on them?

My understanding is that the sloper is positive enough that it doesn't really test contact strength. Because the hold is so good, it doesn't put a lot of stress on your fingers, and tends to isolate forearm muscles, generating a pump without tweaking your fingers.

pk has it right...it targets the forearms.

lee, I just built mine over the summer with help from brentucky...you should have seen us two gumbies trying to pull that off. and shortly after putting it up, well you know the rest of the story.

Wow, I get credit for that? I remember drinking beer and watching you work. Then I went back to doing pull-ups on huge jugs so I could get strong. I still don't know what my problem is.

anytime there is help drinking beer, you are guilty of the entire episode.

Those are hangs, hang one minute 15 seconds off five times, wait five minutes and repeat three times. They will increase you endurance to which ever power you possess at the time. It will not increase you power but it will do wonders for your endurance.

holy crap thats tough. no wonder I can never send, I'm not training correctly. I'm impressed tutu
