maidenfan Posted September 3, 2007 Author Share Posted September 3, 2007 (edited) 09/03/07 Squats - Barx8, 135x5, 225x5, 315x1, 405x1, 365x1x10sets Grippers (no set) - T-2x1, 3.5xHS (missed by 1/8"), RB330Nx5 The week off and the Colorado air (8000') did me some good. Also, if you havent tried the Rheband neopreme shorts they're awesome - best squatting shorts I've used - they keep everything nice and warm.

lifesnotfair Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Strong gripping. If you don't mind me asking 2 questions: what is the spread on that gripper? And 2. How long is your hand, the traditional way fo measuring? (first crease in wrist to tip of middle finger). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maidenfan Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 Iirc, the RB narrows are about 2.5" - hand length is a hair over 8.5" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lifesnotfair Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 Iirc, the RB narrows are about 2.5" - hand length is a hair over 8.5" Man I'm envious. I'm by no means saying you're this strong because of handsize though, this is some awesome work. What on earh does "HS" mean? Heh, sorry to ask so much. If you can No-Set the #3.5 you'd be the first one to post a video of that feat. The very few videos of #3.5 closes in here are all done with a parallel set.

maidenfan Posted September 4, 2007 Author Share Posted September 4, 2007 Handsize definately plays a part in no-setting grippers. The regular RB330 (brass handles) I have is tremendously harder (#4 range) than the 330N I have. I'm an 1/8" or so from no-setting the 3.5 I have, so thats a couple of months of training, but I'll post one up when I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thearm95 Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 (edited) That would be just plain sick. Another way of looking at the #3.5 no-set is that it is only half a gripper away from a #4 no-set! Go get it Maiden.

Alawadhi Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Very nice workout How do you rate the 330n? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maidenfan Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 Hard to say - probably easier than a 3 at the start of the sweep then a tad harder at close? Its hard to compare as they feel a lot different than the wider grippers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
