small hands, weak grip but improving

[Guest TnT]

 Finally closed the #1 for a second rep and about an 1/8 inch to go for rep 3. I think more rest was the key for me.

I just wish my hands were bigger, only 7 1/8 in.

 The left hand is still a problem ...it lags so far behind the right. I feel a little better though considering I've always had an abnormaly weak grip.

          keep on keepin' on

Congrats on the 2nd rep and good luck on the 3rd.  My left hand is also a pus next to my right.  I'm a hair from a 3rd rep with #3 righty, and I'm still working for  the 1st rep with the left.  I belive you hit the nail on the head with more rest.   Good Luck and train hard.

Don't worry about the hand size.  There is a guy who weighed 137 lbs when he closed the #3, so his hands couldn't have been bigger than yours.  Also, Supergrip has 7 inch hands and can close the #2.  You'll slowly work your way up to Ultimate Grip (something I don't have yet either).

       I can see the handles of my # 2 closing now.

The thousand mile journey begins with the first step.

TnT- I have 7 inch hands or so, and I didn't have any problem at all working up to the #2. You'll be just fine! :-D

My hands are 7 inches. You hit the point with more rest.
