Slippery Pete Posted September 24, 2018 Share Posted September 24, 2018 Hey! So. This will be a journal for my griptraining. I'm fairly new to gripsport and have mostly been doing work with grippers. I have most of the equipments needed, and looking to expand my gripstrenght to more then just grippers. I enjoy making gripstuff, so most of my tools are selfmade. My training will consist of mainly: Grippers, Revoling handles, Vertical bar, Levering, Pinch. I would say that my biggest pursuit right now is the CoC#3 gripper close. Age, 27 somewhat tall and skinny. PRs: "Silver bullet" 18.5mm with CoC#3 - 18 seconds CoC#2.5 20mm block close CoC#2 30 reps with very deep set. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm doing better at high reps and static work than heavy closes. Looks like we are fighting towards the same goal. Good luck to you : ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My left hand(wrist), my dominate hand has gotten an injury. Dont know how bad it is. But I wont do any grippers or sledge for a while with left atleast. A bit sad. Good news is that there is no pain when doing pinch. Crushing action is the worst. Edited September 27, 2018 by Slippery Pete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's one of the reasons I decided to ease into my training program in spite of my enthusiasm. Someone else asked me to write my joint therapy program in general forum, maybe I will get around to it. Best of luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think it's that bad however. I get dramatic when it comes to set backs. Will probably be able to train grippers in a month or less.

Selfmade TNS gripper L25,25, R25,25 Comments Good bloodflow! I'm feeling that closeing CoC#3 this year might be much to ask for. Its a heavy gripper man. But If I fail to close it, I still feel like there is alot of other stuff that will compensate for that. Overall gripstrenght is the most important thing in this state.

Can you show us a picture of this selfmade TNS gripper? Feels like I will disappoint. It's nothing more complicated then a gripper with narrow width. In this case 41mm in between the handles. These are the grippers I have made this far. Are gonna make some with brass and copper handles as well. Looking forward to that! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slippery Pete Posted October 7, 2018 Author Share Posted October 7, 2018 (edited) I did my first bends yesterday. I got some advice from David Wigren. Hardest bend was 5×120mm stainless steel. Wish I bought some 6mm aswell. Was really fun! I used 100x300mm jeans sheets as pads. Edited October 7, 2018 by Slippery Pete 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not good. Worn since last workout, which was great however. When I almost only worked with grippers my recovery felt really fast. If I am rested I should get 10 or more block set reps on GHP5. Decent attempts on #2.5 CCS. Fingercurls was nice. Made this handle today. Might clean up and paint the "hook thingy" When time is given too me I will make bigger rollers for it. Hopefully with and without knurling. Edited October 10, 2018 by Slippery Pete 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been lazy as fk. Its not normal to have as many rest days as I have had. Guess thats one cause for the good form. I have been thinkin. I dont want to stare blindly at CoC#3. Right now I wanna get into bending and getting my open hand strength better. so I will more likely not close it this year. Quote "-What happend to Bob Sacamano?"

I dont know the english term for it. But I pulled something in my left forearm on the first workset during RT. It left me powerless. It nothing serious, but still really annoying. I think it will be gone in a couple of days. Quote ""I wish there were pig-men.
