The Coin Challenge


lloyd80s

Recommended Posts

Here's the video of the 7 second penny hold on my #3. Way clearer in original video. Youtube makes it look so dark. Do you guys know of a site where you can post the original videos and link to them?

http://www.vimeo.com doesn't mess up the compression as much as YouTube, but I find a lot of peoples phones won't play video off it. My iPhone doesn't support it so, I now post on YouTube.

You could also try:

http://www.fileave.com

A file hosting site rather than a video hosting site but a linked video file will open in media player. :)

Exactly what I'm looking for. Thanks Auto!

:yikes Great job, Bullitt. I updated the #3 close because, in general, the goal is to move up any way possible. :D Including by simply calibrating your gripper so do that if you can :D

Thanks Cannon. I would, but I don't know anyone in the Maryland area with an RGC setup. Oh well. I'll just keep crushing and holding. :D

Strong effort. I guess I need to get back to penny holds next week. ;)

I gotta save my energy for the #2.5 close. Otherwise, I'd do another #1.5 hold.

You need to get your back mended first.

Jotto, good to see you again!

Gump, the video is great. More people should do this out on the street.

SenseOfTouch, probably one of the highest initial entries! Good job :cool

Its funny, when I last did my penny hold I went from consistantly closing number two to repping it 3 sets of 4 on my next workout day. I guess the static hold worked well for breaking the plateau. I did this again today with the CoC # 2 and I got 20 sec. I dont have a video camera right now as we are in the process of moving, but I will try to get vid of it.

summary:

CoC #2 ---5/13

20 sec with my right hand.

Very strong effort bro! :rock

I agree. I got soo caught up on closing the #2.5, I forgot about the coin challenge. I'll need to try the #2 again in a few days.

BlAh!

Tried and failed again. I said a FEW days. Not a day after I worked out with grippers the night before!

Video of failure.

*grumbles*

I even tried a #1.5 and my best was 10 seconds. No more grip till Thursday or so.

Few days off will do you good. I think we all are guilty of overtraining sometimes

I definitely am... I did the work out Sunday night, then tried to do the penny hold yesterday and THEN my best friend came by and wanted to see everything... my hand feels like it's throbbing. I did a contrast soak last night and it felt better. I'll do another one today.

No more grip/pinch for for a few days.

Big jump for you tchcalvin! Glad that something seemed to clear a plateau for you.

Hammy, you're almost at the top of the 2.5s! You can take first! Dig for it.

Bullitt, 16secs with a #3 is huge :blink . You need a light Elite. Do you have another gripper?

I have a BBElite and a 3.5. Both of which are still a ways away from a penny hold. :blush
