BRETTY1 Posted October 8, 2006 Posted October 8, 2006 Ive finally closed my coc#2 i started training differently with my grippers i got some good advise of the board. I'd warm up with my plastic store gripper then i'd get my number #1 and put a strap in between it and hold a 5kg plate i'd hold it as long as i could! been doing that the last couple of days. Today was the day i closed my hard #2 i was over the moon lol so i opened my number#3 and give it a shot i closed it more then half way i was a bit the #3 dissapointed me with how much trouble i had with my #2 i was expecting the #3 to be impossible to close i think i'll have it closed in a months time. I must have a very easy #3 and a very hard #2 the main thing is i closed the #2 and im very happy about that just dissapointed about my #3 Quote

Good luck with that #3 you'll it soon enough. Keep training hard bro. Quote real name: Sam Solomi
BIKERICH Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 congratulations on a real nice accomplishment! hadda feel really good.its not easy.what set did you use? Quote Richie Citron "You gotta do what you gotta do"
don chi Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 Nice job man! Gotta tell ya ,when I got my #3 I closed it too parallel first shot I was pretty psyched. That was like 6 months or so ago and I've only gotten it a hair closer. I ended going to a BBSM for training. The sweep on my #3 goes like nothing, it's that last 3/4" or so thats killing me. Hope you do it though man. Prove me to be a wimp! Quote
philthy Posted October 9, 2006 Posted October 9, 2006 the first half of the #3 isn't the hard part, it's the last half... Quote

Now onto: warm-up reps with the #1, reps and strap-holds with the #2 and negatives and assisted reps on the #3... the first half of the #3 isn't the hard part, it's the last half... You hit the nail on the head! Quote
