Guest StrongerthanArne Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 Arne Persson just told me of a woman who had her first try ever with grippers. We knew she was very strong but were still surprised by her performance. She closed a IM #1 and got to within 3-4 mm of closing a hard IM #2 (the hardest of four #2's that I have tried). Watch out Elizabeth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Horne Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 Well done! Tell Arne to bring her over with him to the Grip champs. Elizabeth would love it! David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StrongerthanArne Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 David, I doubt she could do that. She has a small baby to take care of. Some of her other feats of strength include 135 k i bench in competition. She competed once in Swedens strongest woman and won. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Horne Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 Mikael, I understand, shame though. Give her my best regards. Tell you what we could do; we could have a postal competition between the two of them, with three events chosen by Elizabeth and three chosen by her. What do you think? We can sort out all the details, I know Elizabeth would be up for it. What's her name? Because when Elizabeth competed in the Strongest woman contest in Callander there was a Swedish strongwoman in it. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest StrongerthanArne Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 Arne can ask her if she would be interested. Her name is Anna Rosén (her husband is a good bench presser with a max around 300 k). She is likely to start doing some training with grippers as her husband is going to buy grippers after having tried them for the first time at Arne's place yesterday.

Tou Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 300 kg is not a good bench, it is a MONSTER bench :crazy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elizabeth talbot Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 Mikael, Please congratulate Anna for me. It's great to know that there are other women out there interested in grip training and capable of doing well. She should get the #2 fairly soon, and I hope she realises just what an achievement it is! Do you know if Anna is interested in any other grip events?

Arne Posted March 17, 2002 Share Posted March 17, 2002 Check this, Mr Göran and Mrs Anna Rosén. A very nice and strong couple. http://www.bahnhof.se/~bkspor...._03.jpg http://www.bahnhof.se/~bkspor...._05.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
