Dave Lemanczyk Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 You'll know you crushed it when the handles of the gripper are touching and don't allow any more range of motion. Good effort man. Quote Rough is the road to the heights of greatness.
GatorGrip Posted December 12, 2005 Posted December 12, 2005 Congrats Stranger, Now that you know in your mind that you can close that #3 it is time to start letting out that set little by little until you can do the credit card set with ease then make that call to Randy Strossen.
