In fact...it was complete domination. Gil Goodman joins some freaking stellar company...becoming the 6th man to lift the 88.1lb drop weight. Congrats @Squeezus...you've been added to the wall (currently a 4x6 but will be replaced with a 5x7 in the near future). I'm honored. Thanks, Nate.

anwnate Posted October 17, 2017 Author Share Posted October 17, 2017 So...yet another long overdue update. Upcoming...AOBS this Saturday, King Kong the following and Gripmas in December. I'm not even gonna try to contemplate next year at the moment. Looking at my Ironmind #3 Cert Paper thingy and also this log...it occurred to me that I really haven't done much in last 3 years. Granted, I've had a few setbacks that included being bedridden for 10 months and 6 surgeries, but it was still kind of depressing to see...or rather not see, any real goals being realized. Recently I had a pacemaker/defibrillator installed, which essentially stops my Double Overhand bending. This in turn kills my dreams of the Gold Nail. I honestly don't think anyone will ever Cert the Gold via Double Underhand or Reverse. So that's an end to one dream. What to do? Since I started my grip journey with Grippers...I've decided to go back to the beginning. I'm going to start working towards the MM3 Cert...period. K.I.S.S. Anything else I mess with will be icing on the cake. All for now. 10 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best movie ever. I went to a movie theatre quote along a few months back. Before the show, they took two volunteers to act out the Vizzini vs Wesley Iocane powder scene.
