Hello ,
 
Today is Independence Day - I hope
it's a great one for you!
 
I challenge you to be independent in
your workout today.  Don't just follow
your normal program and scheme of
sets and reps.  Today, you are free to
do whatever it is you feel like doing.
 
Maybe there is a lift you haven't done
in a while because it hasn't fit into your
program...
 
DO IT TODAY!
 
Maybe there's a lift you have recently
found out about and think it might be cool...
 
DO IT TODAY!
 
If you are looking for ideas, I will have
something for you in a couple of hours.
 
This week's Grip Strength Challenge is
a Two Hand Pinch on 2 smooth 45's
held for time!
 
That's right.  Grab two 45's smooth sides
out in a pinch grip and hold them for time
from from your body.
 
I will have a demo for you as soon as I can,
but that lift is what you can do with your
Freedom Celebration Lifting Day!
 
OTHER NEWS
 
The Grip Authority
 
Yesterday I put up two new videos for the
members. 
 
1. Gripper Program Layout
I showed everyone exactly how I train
Grippers each week.
 
2. Things I "Taught" Richard Sorin
During the free-for-all lifting at last
weekend's Summer Strong at Sorinex,
there were few Grip Training tricks I
actually showed Richard Sorin that blew
him away, so I did a recap and full demo
of all of these for the TGA Members. 
Richard said, "I learned more from Jedd in
15 minutes than I have in years."
 
Think you want to learn them too?

Summer Strong Videos
 
All of the video footage from Summer
Strong #4 have been uploaded to my YouTube Channel.
 
I will be compiling them on the site as
the week goes on.  There were some
serious World Class Feats that went
down. Some of these feats have only
ever been done once before and some
have never been done before.  So don't
miss this upcoming video series.
 
Other Stuff Coming Up
 
Also coming up this week I have a foam
rolling article for Grip Athletes, Arm
Wrestlers and Strongmen.  This is a guest
post that Joe Musselwhite submitted and
he is going to add a bit more to it so that
all of us that use our hands so much can
get the most benefit out of it as possible. 
 
OK, .  Big Week. 
Lots of stuff coming your way. 
 
Stay tuned and all the best in your training.
