Do you ever train grippers much or do you mostly do thick bar, pinch and hub stuff? I really don’t do hub style lifts very often (I might jump over to them after my main lifts are done). For grippers I can close a CoC 2.5 but I haven’t really been focusing on them that much. I do plan on fitting them in here soon and improving that aspect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rphilton Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Zach, have you added weight to your hub plate lift? If so, I'd be curious what you got prior to doing the hub transfer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, I'd be curious what you got prior to doing the hub transfer. It’s not something I normally do. I will randomly jump over on a hub or something after my main lifts or main work. I normally don’t train it or spend a lot of time on it. Most recent hub style lifts I’ve pulled are a 70lb lift on The Ironmind Hub and I added 3x5lb plates to my 45 for a 60lb lift (I could probably do a little more haven’t really pushed that style of lift) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rphilton Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Those are good hub lifts for sure...I do mine after lifting the block weights as well. The block weights have added about 10 lbs to my hub lifts without any specific practice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZRMMA Posted November 21, 2021 Author Share Posted November 21, 2021 11-21-2021 Not a real training day for me but did want to try and lift this 232lb Train Axle. Pulled off a solid lift. Good start going into this weeks training. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a huge fan of the Hub but would like to get it to 80+. I mess around with hub stuff here and there but it’s far from a main focus.

I don’t like the hub either have only tried it twice but I think my best was like 45lbs. Been working the pinch block lots lately and still not where even close to the weight your pulling on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to see your doing part 2 of the super series Do you use the claw type grip on the hub or the more door knob type of style? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would say about 95% of the time regular finger tips/claw grip. I don’t even fold or wrap the thumb like some people do. I still kinda mess around and experiment with other grips from time to time but haven’t felt too much of a difference or reason for me to change it. I’m far from a hub expert and haven’t really put a lot of time in on it, so maybe over time or if I can get around more experienced hub lifters I’ll figure out better technique. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flask 1hand- 54x1, 69x1, 80x1, 95x1 (Left Hand Only) shorter session today.. still little tired from Weds. training. Wanted to still work some pinch but didn’t wanna use the IM block again so messed around with the Flask. Felt like I could have pulled 85-90lbs on it all day but short on time so so ran it up to 95 for a solid lift. Then attempted 100lbs and broke it a decent amount off the ground (may have been good for a pull to height type lift) but no clean lockout or solid hold at the top like the 95lbs.
