BigT Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 3/27Tried both 2004 #3 (rated by bencrush at 3.3) and new #3 to see which one was tougher, I gave it 50 more closes first. Tried '04 first, sucked, 1/2" right, then tried the new one and got it to about 1/8", tried it again and about the same, really binding up last bit, maybe needs some lube. Gave it another 50 closes and will squirt it with WD40 again. I think this will be a good 3.0-3.1 ish gripper, if the binding gets better. Is it normal for a gripper to do this? It makes alot of noise. It has a 2 15/16" spread just like like the '04 but the spring is set a little higher than flush. #1 10x10 for fun, I have a cracked callus that hurts like hell so the #1 felt real good. nice job on the hard#3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you could bring your new #3 over and we could see what it is all about Take care man. -Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deaner Posted March 29, 2006 Author Share Posted March 29, 2006 That sounds great, I don't know when though, this weekend is shot already. I'm gonna try and build a nice pullup rack in my room, definately would like some expert advice. Maybe Saturday or Sunday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smp76 Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Saturday not good but Sunday looks okay, also I will be ordering a MMG1 and MMG2 replicas from Tetting tonight so we will have those to play with and train for... -Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deaner Posted March 30, 2006 Author Share Posted March 30, 2006 Sounds good Sean. I'm wondering how that MM1 compares to these 3's we have. 3/29? it's wednesday tx10, #1x3, rb240nx1 #3 attempts tried 2 each to try and compare them I still think the new ones a bit easier, mostly cuz it's easier to set and the knurling is sharp where the old ones worn. Got the new one down to 1/8-1/4", attempts with the 04 were 1/2" I've had that sucker down to a hair from closed and closed it with a choker, kinda frustrating.

deaner Posted April 6, 2006 Author Share Posted April 6, 2006 I'm down around 1/8" on the new one usually, todays was around 1/4" and the choker attempt was about the same, just awful. I was getting fairly consistent w/the choker closes, think it's (my training) getting a little stale and it's time to mix it up a bit. I'm sure dieting is not helping.

I'm sure dieting is not helping. That's just what fat people say! Get your ass in gear Jason...you are doing just fine, perhaps over training? Or the fact you are knocking out pull ups all the time and that is affecting your crush. You are doing fine man, no sets the RB240, is a few 1/8" on a #3 that weighs in at a 3.3 you should be happy man. I am. You have always been a great motivator and competition for me, so what if you had an off day. YOU ARE THE MAN, now get after it! -Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deaner Posted April 6, 2006 Author Share Posted April 6, 2006 Yeah, your right, it was not a good day, just kinda off, been a little grumpy. Next workout I will be in top form. Think I will switch it up a bit though, maybe more reps, or volume work w/ the choker will do it. More blockweights too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deaner Posted April 16, 2006 Author Share Posted April 16, 2006 4/15 Still doing KTA, this was day 2 of week 2, hands holding up good so far. Felt REAL strong yesterday, but no attempts on #3. Got 12 singles yesterday and 12 again today. 4/14 pull/ push 6/10, 3/10, 2/10 all 1 set then 4/10, 2/10, 2/10 lot tougher going back and forth no rest between sets. Bodyweight was 242 thursday, shoulder x-ray looked good, so doc says soft tissue damage and refered me to another doc, maybe get some kind of shot in there.

Was great to get the all out grip-a-thon out of the way before my trip. See ya when I get back bro. Thanks for kicking my ass on V-bar you man. I expect you to have solid MMG1 closes when I get back! I left it with you for a reason... -Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
