Michael86 Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 OK so I feel like a crazy old lady w/ way to many beenie babies or somthing of that nature.I need to go to a "GA-grippers anonymous" meeting.I never dreamed I would have this many grippers.My list includes the following-HG200,HG250,HG300,IM trainer,IM#1,IM#2,IM#3,IM#4,BB SuperMaster,BB Elite.A couple paychecks are in these grippers and I cant beleive that. I know its not that much compared to some of you grip gurus but to me its a little more than a fist full.Im just wondering how you guys w/ good sized collections store your grippers.

king crusher Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 throw um in a drawer. its a very scientific way to store grippers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 i stuck push pins in the side of a shelf in my room to hang the coc's from, trainer at bottom to #4 at the top. my other 6 or 7 grippers sit below them on top of a dresser.

steelbiceps Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Jumbling around in a gym bag full of bolts, nails, bolt cutters, softballs with eye screws in them, chains, an RT, decks of cards, etc. The gripper handles tend to scuff the RT, so the RT is usually wrapped in an old T-shirt. Pampered, they ain't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TelegraphKey Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 IronMind actually adverises Gripper Handbags specifically for this purpose. They got the idea from guys using their Bag of Nails bags to store grippers. I recently ordered my first nails & Bag of Nails, and have dumped out the nails & stuck in my grippers (which, BTW, are nowhere near the high-intensity range y'all's grippers are -- just a bunch of Trainers, #1 #2 Guide Sport & regular fern-bar plastic grippers) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darco Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 an old aquaintance of mine,jeff maddy,strict curled 250 in a strongman contest.he defeated ken brown in this event. jeff said he was good for more--- but this was enough that day this was well documented by j.v. askem. jeff is one of the original number 3 closers i doubt the kaz 440 report.i doubt that he claims it either. ← I stuck them in the drawer of my computer desk, they are piled in there good, I also have 4 sitting on my amplifier.

mobsterone Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 Worse for me is all my weights, rack etc is up against a wall in my newly moved to lounge. But my nearest gym is only costing me £2.00 a session - dirt cheap and has 2 power racks (a good sign). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darco Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 That quote in my last post is for another thread, rather than the obvious incompetence on my part I'll balme it on the board software. I also find a good way to store grippers is to lend them out to people, makes alot of room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gerryg Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 My grippers are stored on the floor under my coffee table! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve B. Posted December 14, 2005 Share Posted December 14, 2005 I nailed a 2x4 three feet long on my gargage wall,then some 5" nails into that. Makes a great gripper hanger and organized as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 I modified a gun holster to hold 5 grippers + a small bag of chalk. I wear it over my wife beater and never take it off, not even when I shower or make love. The strap across my back says"Grip Or Die". My gf loves it because she says I look like Chuck Norris. Otherwise I used to keep them in a little bucket in my room..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProfessorKomodo Posted December 15, 2005 Share Posted December 15, 2005 I have disobeyed the rules of dorm room damage protocol and stuck push pins in the wall to hang my three grippers one on top of the other. I tell my roomate "Hey at least there isnt a hole the sledgehammer head sized hole in the wall yet". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clay Edgin Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 I nailed a 2x4 three feet long on my gargage wall,then some 5" nails into that.Makes a great gripper hanger and organized as well. This is what I do too, but my 2x4 is about 12' long and I have regular 16d nails sticking about an inch out of it. I also hang my handles like the RT, R-ring, and whatever else I can fit on there so it stays out of the way. The grippers are organized left to right with the easiest on the left and hardest on the right. Unfortunately, the last 5 are rediculously tough and I haven't closed any of them! They are: 2 super tough RB300's, BBSE, HG500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedy Posted December 16, 2005 Share Posted December 16, 2005 Doesn't matter, whatever works for you. My latest storage is a very large caribiner from Home Depot that holds them all plus my Ivanko, and a leather bag that has my powerball.
