Booze Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 (edited) 1 hour ago, Hopefully said: I'm curious about that guy. He shows an enormous amount of interest in grippers and grip strength overall, and is a self proclaimed expert in grip strength. Still his strength has remained at around coc#1 level for 6+ years. Just wondering what's up. And as you say, he should join. As someone who watches tons of gripper videos of YouTube (just lurk mainly, rarely leave comments)I’m very familiar with the name bamboo training! He might be the only person more obsessed with watching videos than me, as I swear every single video of someone I click on there’s a 99% chance I’ll see bamboo in the comments section lol. His videos are usually really long but I’ll sometimes skim to see where he’s at with grippers. And yes, he doesn’t seem to have made great gains in the amount of time spent....but he’s very passionate I’ll give him that!

Just wondering what's up. And as you say, he should join. I can tell you one thing. His videos are Waaayyyyy long and he makes very strange faces in between his attempts and blasts music in the background that makes it almost unbearable to watch the videos. I asked him a few times to trim down the videos and the music level. He’s very eccentric as a lot of us are.... but yes he has not excelled much and he tells everyone in his comments that he competes or is involved with actual grip sport but I believe it’s only on his insanely long videos. He was trying to play with a COC #4 today and I gave him some advice how this is not wise since I don’t think he can close more than a 2. He won’t join. I already asked him why. He said it’s because of the no drug conversation policy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gets humiliated!!!!” At what point does the term noob no longer apply though....I would think 5+ years might be a little past the cutoff point!

His latest videos are “people call me gay or fag and I’m trying the worlds hardest grippers”. It’s a real parody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
