Bullworker in lieu of Weights

[Guest guest]

My workouts are primarily progressive resistance in nature; bodyweight, dumbbells, and The Hook . I use my bullies to cap off each exercise with a good, strong live iso, and for this I consider my bullies to be indespensible. There are some exercises, however, for which I use my Bullworker that I feel exceed weights and the like, for sheer strength and muscle building. For these I need the heavy resistance of my Classic, and I do a ten and one for each of these exercises:

Diamond Pushups - or Diamond Pushdowns, to be more accurate. I set my Classic on end on the floor in front of me, cup my hands around the other handle, bend at the waist so that my chest is directly above the bully, and then push straight down with both arms.

Wide Lat Pulldown - I set my Classic on end atop a surface that is 40" high, stand sideways to it, reach up with one arm and pull straight down.

Lat Crunch - While leaning forward, I hold one handle at my belly, reach out and grab the other handle with my other hand, and draw the Classic in towards me.

Ab Crunch - While seated, I place one end of the Classic on the chair between my legs, and pull straight down on the other end with both hands, while at the same time, leaning into the Bullworker and raising my knees up.

The Classic excels at forearm leverage exercises:

Pronation - rotating your fists inward. Set one end of the Bully on a table top with the Bully straight up, grab hold of the handles on either cable, palms facing inward, and rotate your fists inward and downward.Supination - rotating your fists outward. Hold the Bully in front of you, parallel to the floor, by grabbing both handles on the top cable, palms facing downward, and rotate your fists upward and outward.Radial Deviation - for the fronts of your forearms, rotating your fists forward and upward. Place one end of the Bully at the base of a wall with the other end leaning towards you. Grab hold of handles on either side of the Bully, palms inward, and rotate your fists forward and upward, aiming back at you.Ulnar Deviation - for the backs of your forearms, rotating your fists downward and backward. Place one end of the Bully on a table and lean the other end toward you. Grab hold of the handles on each side from underneath, palms facing inward. Rotate your fists downward and backward, aiming back at you.Underhand Curls - for the underside of your forearm, rotating your fist upward, palm up. While either standing or seated, place your foot on a cable to hold the Bully down, grab hold of a handle on the other cable, brace your forearm along the length of your thigh, and rotate your fist upward and towards you. Overhand Curls - Same as above, but with your palm facing downward - for the top of your forearm.

Great post! I misplaced my wall chart quite some time ago and a few of these

sound familiar along with some new ones. I will try them later today. I have to

read through them slowly will the Bullworker in my hands because I can't picture

one or two of the descriptions.

Stick with your bullworker mate and remember effort + bullworker= results!

p.s effective iso holds can be carried out with bow extension or even a rope

with spliced loops in each end or save your bucks for the next release from

bullworker what ever it is I bet its better than a IGRIP!

Ya know, maybe that's how we should look at this device: as a good warm-up tool

prior to engaging in bullworking....Cheers, Ganton
