Tom Scibelli Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I think that was closer than 1/4". Set took a while too, bet if it was quicker you would have crushed it. Looking strong! This Work on it a little and you will have the cert down in no time. Great attempt. Thanks Stephen! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel this time around the close on this gripper was way more solid and a wider set.. I.D. didn't show up well but not too concerned beings I've closed this gripper before. I am really trying to stay focused and train smart this time around .. MM0 here I come!!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buccos1 Posted June 19, 2014 Share Posted June 19, 2014 That was a strong close Sean! I've been having a lot more trouble setting the GHP grippers than the COC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FernandoGaeta1995 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Hello everyone, I know that Im late to the party and a newbie but I would like to take part. Started with grippers in July and as of today my best close is a HG250 rated at 126 MMS. Going for my 153 rated #3 by the end of the year, hopefully early december. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chops Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 My 3 is off to be rated. I'll post when i get it back. Any members MM0 in < 6 months ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Electron Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 http://www.gripboard.com/index.php?showtopic=40803 I'm almost there. Got much closer than expected when I gave a full effort. I'd like to have this closed by the end of the year. An MM0 quality close may still be far off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrassMaine89 Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 I'll join the race....best close is 130 GHP 6. I missed a 140 GM by a very small margin. I'll post a video sometime next week...hopefully friendly competition will be just what I need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chops Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 My plan is to work grippers 2-3 times a week, and drag 50# steel blocks around until I can make them fly! I have not been able to consistently do negatives, I end up with a bruise or tear my hand. I think I'll try to put them back in the mix and just keep it to a lower gripper. Still have a gap in grippers from 130# to 150#. May pick up a GM to try and fill the gap, even if it is an extended handle. Anybody want to elaborate how they plan to make 2015 the year of the Mashmonsters. Todd- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrassMaine89 Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 I read through Chez's training log and am going to incorporate a lot of his ideas. I'm working with heavy grippers and low reps (1-3). I also started a strength training routine to help my body respond. I'm trying to incorporate fast grips, pinch, and wrist strength but am struggling to get a balanced routine going.

JoshW Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Thought I would join this race as I'm so close to closing my #3! Few mm off at the end of my workouts, good luck everyone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Todd- I picked up a GM from Cannon Powerworks that happened to rate at 140....however the 2.5 and GHP 6 both rated 130. I'm going to send my 3 soon for rating. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
