INCIDENT REPORT:0006. Patience rewarded. PROGRESS: 15 out of 100.

 It’s been a week.

The new two-day split remains in effect: Monday and Friday.

Monday was consumed by relocation—Portland, Oregon, back to Boise, Idaho. Portland’s streets were slick with stomped glitter frogs. My work there was done.

Moving is always a disruption. More importantly, it’s a distraction. And the 100kg Bender Bar does not tolerate divided attention. It demands full cognitive engagement. Miss that, and consequences follow—usually fast, usually expensive.

Could I have trained Tuesday?
Maybe.

But doing so would have further disrupted the training cycle I’m now interfacing with. That wasn’t worth the risk. Discipline sometimes looks like restraint.

So I held the line.
I waited until today—Friday—before picking up the bar.

Good decision.

New personal record established: 15 bends

Recovery directive validated. Patience rewaded.

The 100 non-stop bends using a 100kg / 220lb Bender Bar Directive with Kevin Wikse.

This project documents my pursuit of 100 non-stop bends using a 100kg / 220lb Bender Bar , also known—for reasons known only to third-world marketing departments—as the Power Twister . This is a first-of-its-kind strength and endurance trial by fire and steel, intended to explore and demonstrate higher tiers of human capability through the development of android-like work capacity .. PARAMETERS & PROTOCOLS Overhand bending is the current operational standard. (Underhand bending will be addressed later. Not now.) The bar is held level at all times , ensuring the most honest possible display of strength and endurance. No long pauses. This is a simultaneous test of power and energy—output and volume, strength and stamina. The bar handles must touch for a bend to be counted as successful. It is feasible that the bar may slip or roll. If safe, I will adjust and continue. Control is preferred; awareness is mandatory. The bar remains in my hands at chest level ...

INCIDENT REPORT:0012. UPGRADE: Internal Re-calibration. PROGRESS: 18 out of 100. Internal Alignment → External Power: Kevin Wikse Hits 18 Bends After Daoist Recalibration

Circuit upgrade complete. Internal alignment achieved. 18 bends confirmed. Industrial Strength Bastardry continues. — Kevin Wikse It’s been over a month. The system took hits. Back went out—significant pain. Illness followed. Multiple disruptions stacked. Training paused. Full shutdown conditions. And strangely enough, it couldn’t have happened at a better time. For nearly 20 years, I’ve been petitioning the master of a small Daoist sect to be allowed to learn their Qigong, Neigong, and Shengong—reconnecting with the lineage of my original teacher. The answer finally came back: Yes. The past month has been spent under instruction in the deeper levels of Qigong and Neigong. Even at this early stage—just laying the pre-foundation—this work is already outperforming 99% of what’s publicly available. Given time, it will surpass even my own previous understanding. I’ve already corrected two major imbalances and dissolved a significant energy blockage. The release triggered a powerful phy...

INCIDENT REPORT:0014. Mile Maker!. PROGRESS: 20 out of 100. 20 Bends: Kevin Wikse Breaks the “Unbendable” Bar Through Qigong and Neigong Training

20 reps. The bar bends. The system holds. Now it’s your turn. —Kevin Wikse Industrial Strength Bastardry A mile marker has been met. 20 bends on the 220lb / 100kg Bender Bar —the so-called “unbendable.” MAXIMUM output. I cannot overstate the role of the Qigong / Neigong work I’ve committed to. This is energy work at the highest level—effective to the point that the training appears almost deceptive from the outside. Tension-free. Exceptionally soft. Focused on releasing tissue and nerve pathways, tracing and reconnecting meridian lines, restoring continuity across the system. Just restoration and integration . Paired with only two heavy exercises per week , the result is undeniable: Stronger More flexible Healthier Pain-free And continuing to improve. These methods are not public. I spent nearly 20 years petitioning for entry into this Daoist lineage. Access was earned. It will be protected. This tradition remains within my Temple . As for today: 20 bends....
