Anemptybox – Grippers


Anemptybox

Recommended Posts

Fell asleep for a few minutes before going to the gym today (I very rarely take naps) and needless to say, I was a bit groggy and didn't feel that strong, but I had looked forward to trying my CoC 3. Anyway:

CoC 1 x 3 TNS reps.

CoC 3 RGC 149 x 1 attempt, missed by a couple of mm (R).

GHP 7 RGC 144 x 1 attempt, missed by a couple of mm (L).

GHP 7 RGC 144 x 1 attempt. Very close with right hand and kinda big miss with left.

Spectrum RGC 135 x 1 MMS reps.

GHP 6 x 6 MMS reps (R) and 3 reps (L).

CoC 2 x 10 MMS reps.

CoC 1 x 5 TNS reps.

CoC 1 x 5 TNS reps.

When I got home I also did a MMS rep with Gold's Gym 125 kg gripper (left turn).

Like I've written before, I'm a bit weaker overall since doing more cardio, around 20-30 minutes each workout. Grip strength is still pretty much the same though, at least I think so. Today at the gym inbetween sets:

CoC 1 x 5 TNS reps.

GHP 5 x 5 MMS reps x 5 sets.

GHP 5 x many deep mini reps.

GHP 5 x Hold.

(Later at home) MH 3* x 8 CCS reps (R) and 6 reps (L).

I have been training but I'm currently on a grip break because I have some pain in my left middle finger (at the right side of the base).

Managed 115 kg / 254 lbs bench press 5 x 5 today which felt pretty good.

Still not doing any grippers or any other grip specific training, left middle finger still bothers me. Wanted to share something though so here's a video filmed by my dad, sent through text message though so the quality is horrible. Hammer curls 30 kg /66 lbs 8 reps attempt, done after 2½ hour walk in the heat + bench press. EDIT: Not perfect form attempt, just for fun.

Nice curls man. Practice your right hand with TNS if you can't use your left, you might set some new PR's :)

Thanks man! I did a little bit of gripper work with right hand yesterday after I saw your reply:

CoC 1 x 15 TNS x 2

CoC 1.5 x 8 TNS

Really good bench day for me:
100 kg / 220 lbs x 5

110 kg / 243 lbs x 5

115 kg / 254 lbs x 5

117.5 kg / 259 lbs x 5

120 kg / 265 lbs x 3

100 kg / 220 lbs x 13. This was very good for me to end with. I think I could've done 1 or maybe even 2 more reps but I got some weird cramp feeling in my hip/leg  during the set.

Been a stressful year filled with some good things but also really stupid injuries, more anxiety than what's normal for me, and a damn hot summer (not in a good way). Will try to get back to grippers so here's a video with some stuff from yesteday:

I noticed I should definitely hold the reps way longer than I do in the video. I did quite a lot more yesterday though, like high reps with CoC 1.5 and CoC 1, etc.

Current goal: close my CoC 3 RGC 149 from a deep set/semi-good MMS before the end of the year.

New video! I do dumbbell press with 50 kg / 110 lbs for 5 reps, then some very crappy dumbbell biceps curls with 35 kg / 77 lbs, just wanted to try them. Finally, I do 7 [almost 8] CCS reps with CoC 2 with left hand. Taking it easy with right hand because of some pain in the base of the middle finger. Feels exactly the same as my previous injury on my left middle finger, except way less pain, so at least that's a good thing..
