Eric3 Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Hi guys, I’m new to this board so I had a couple of questions. I have a Gripanator replica and was wondering if it carries over well to grippers. So if it takes 175lbs of crush strength to close a #3.5 gripper, for example, would you have to work up to 175lbs on the Gripanator to be able to close it? And for those of you with a Gripanator, do you find that reps are best or holds/negatives? Also, regarding grippers, do you guys find that singles are work best or reps? Thanks in advance for your help! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slazbob Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Because of leverage factors I would think you’d need much less than the actual rating of the gripper you’re trying to close. me, personally have found 3-5 reps to be the sweet spot for grippers. gripanator was a popular item years ago ...but the expense was the problem for most. I tried to get one last year (replica) but never heard back from him after I agreed to the price. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
