I never said that- however they will help with explosive power like clap pushups etc.

I know. just being a douche

im gonna wait for a post in the injury section labeled "I broke my wrist doing clap dips, do i need a doctor?"

what purpose does the clap serve? quite a bit of impact on your wrists considering they have to "catch" your weight after the clapping motion.

ze all knowing · 10-12-2007, 02:26 AM

looks like a great way to get an injury

knackbobbes · 10-12-2007, 02:55 AM

Even the lady in the backround ran away, and she didn?t look like an expert

. I think the injury risk is damn high compared to the possible gains.

Agreed although it could be useful for a boxer i'll say that. plyometrics my friend.

knackbobbes · 10-12-2007, 03:23 AM

There?s no question about plyometrics being helpful / benefical for many sports, is it upper body or lower body. In this case, i?m only guessing the "benefiteffect" over "injuryrisk" aspect. I would go with "push ups claps". Keep clapping

please can some post a vid of someone doing clap deads. that would be too funny. clap at the top then regrip in mid air and lower.

KingOfNorway · 10-12-2007, 05:21 AM

I'm doing some clean pulls today, maybe I'll leg to, clap and catch it again mid air.

Zensuji · 10-12-2007, 05:39 AM

throw the bar overhead then do a jumping jack, land on a swiss and catch it.

Oh gawd, I just choked on some strawberry pop tart. How about weighted 'clap dips' (sounds more like an std or sumpin')? No balls.

thanks for advice, gonna try that later today. Should be pretty good for the core with the swiss ball I bet!

Zensuji · 10-12-2007, 07:10 AM

yep totally have someone kick the ball underneath you while doing the jump jack then slug you in gut just as you catch the bar.

i like having "clap sex". you pull out, clap and PIITB. repeat as necessary.

psychowolverine · 10-12-2007, 10:44 AM

completely worthless

looks like an excellent way to end up in the ER though..

Carry on
