I don't know Andy, these past 3 weeks I've been close to blacking out after the Leg Press
Not sure about the gripping. I've blacked out while Squatting 200kg, woke up on the garage floor. Was in the morning just before work. No real warm up sets or anything. Suspect it was the sudden increase in blood pressure or something.
I'm not sure either, but I make sure I'm breating right, I think I'm doing it right, breathing that is.
Rows, curls legpress, all the exercises where i find I'm holding a pair of handles seems to add to the fatigue.
The very first rep of a heavy military press always has me seeing stars and there has been a few close calls in this regard. I am not sure how to prevent this because it is very disconcerting.
Andy, it's not so much "gripping" that is the issue here, as is the application of static contraction. Yes gripping can fall under this category, so does pushing against an immovable object. Now that will cause your blood pressure to sore, not to mention leave you breathless. Even though I mentioned pushing/pulling against an immovable object, at times, we witness bodybuilders on stage huffing and puffing through the "mere" action of a held muscle contractions.haha
I started blacking out on the leg extension and realised i was gripping the handles, really tight.
once i loosened off, my arms felt weird but i persisted and fininshed the set.
i think "gripping" has a lot to do with this, and why i find myself and others struggle on chin-ups and all pulling movements.
If my shorts are too loose sometimes I knob-out
