AnimalCage Posted August 27, 2001 Share Posted August 27, 2001 This has been driving me crazy ever since I got it months ago. I initially got within 1/4", but could never finish. I believe the difference was the finger walking that I have added to my exercises. I use a metal broomstick, and add varying small plates. I think doing the individual fingers, especially the ring and pinky, helped me the most. Alan "Big goals, small steps, and enjoying the ride!"

Sybersnott Posted August 27, 2001 Share Posted August 27, 2001 Just curious..... what were the exercises that didn't help you? Congrats on the #2 - I guess the next progression for you would be the BB Master, right?

Guest HAD Posted August 27, 2001 Share Posted August 27, 2001 well done, I can close the #2 with my right hand every time now, but can't close the #1 with my left every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearcat 74 Posted August 28, 2001 Share Posted August 28, 2001 Congrats! Now on to the #3. I'm still working on #3 lefty. I can do it if the stars are right, and I put my thumb on the bottom to keep from sliding.

Guest Russell Latterman Posted August 28, 2001 Share Posted August 28, 2001 Thats great. I've been trying to get the #2 with my left hand for months. 4 months ago I was an 1/8th of an inch away. Now I'm A LOT worse. The funny thing is that I am better at closing the #3 (and the #3 has been fully seasoned for a while now). My strength has gotten better for the first part of the close but not the last part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
