The Coin Challenge


lloyd80s

Recommended Posts

Just got chalk to try for the first time this week. My #3 is off getting calibrated so I decided to have a go at my 2.5 for a hold with chalk since I haven't tried in a while.

29secs with my Strong hand hurt like hell but hold felt good with my chalk and i'm finally getting good with setting too!

Did a weak hand hold with my #2 also for 16 seconds!!!!

Mike, that's a beast of a hold! Great work. I'm now officially worried that you missed the MM1. :unsure I better train harder.

Hammy! You're at the top of the 2.5s, I knew you could do it! Now it's time to climb the next bracket! :bow

Yup. I've got my #3 back now it's calibrated and ready for some attempted holds soon. I'll report back with video hopefully!

My elbow is finally feeling better, I have been battling some tendonitis type pain. Haven't been able to try this in a while, but I managed to muster 20 seconds flat with my 2.5, pain free.

Now I am on a mission to that 3!

First real attempt at a penny hold on my 148# calibrated #3 today. 11 secs :D

This isn't my best so far...I will definately try again when I'm fresh.

I actually trained w/ the grippers throughout the day today.

Here's a video of a #2 penny hold for 14 seconds.

My best I believe was 25 seconds, but put me on the chart only for 14 seconds until I make a video that shows more.

THANKS!

Damn you're strong - great hold on the #3 !

I think doing penny holds is much better than just doing regular holds, what do you think?

I really felt my forearm tense by doing these.

I think I can do a few seconds of holding w/ the #2.5 when I'm fresh.

I'll just go for better time w/ the #2 for now.

My boy Bobby Goodfellow (Goody on the Gripboard) came over today and got a 22 second hold on a #3. Please add him to the list.

Yikes, fellas. Some big updates!

Jotto, good to see you back pain free. Keep it up.

Bullitt, um, yeah, MM1 is going down.

Hammy in the #3 range. Watching with interest :)

DannyGrip, good to have you on the chart, flair and all :tongue

And finally, Goody, your double MM1 cert with Bullitt is going to be a sad, sad, SAD day for that poor gripper.

Side note, Luke wrote me and asked that his 3.5 calibration be updated to 175# as he has since consistently marked that number.

HG250, MMS, right hand, 5sec. It is easier than my RB160

This definately isn't my PR. I did a few singles on the #2.5 right before this, so still had some strength left over.

I'll make another one sometime soon.

#2 for 20 seconds w/ penny.
