P-o weightlifting

I train Jr. High Football Players and Wrestlers, and I promised them that if they closed a gripper I would put their name up on this website.  Today was the first one.

Ryan Marcinko, 14 yrs. old, 130lbs.

Closed the trainer left handed and right handed.

Good job!!

Very good job. I have taken the full set to the OH dinner and some of the well trained oldies could not shut the trainer

I'll even PIN this topic at the top for you.

Thanks Wannagrip.  I have three within 1/16" so there should be more to follow in a couple of weeks.

Way to go Ryan!

Good idea Dave. Wrestlers can always use some extra grip on the mat, both limit strength and (especially) stamina. Best wishes to your team.

Two more closers,

Justin Brown, 14 yrs. old, 190 Lbs.

Closed the trainer both right hand and left.

This kid is a bear :0

Ben Baker, 15yrs. old today   , 130 Lbs.

Closed the trainer right handed, less than 1/16" left handed.

Good job J.B. & Baker

good job to all the kids doing this..Its good that you are training them about grip strength so young..You are only as strong as your weakest link and in alot of people it is the grip..You are helping them get a good base.

       good luck to all of the young men.

Good work! ... I'm sure it helps to have an encouraging coach.

Got another one, although he is a high school kid.  He just got the okay to start lifting this week after having shoulder reconstruction this past spring.

Rodney Brown, 17 years old, 225lbs.  Justin Browns big brother.  Closed the trainer easily with both hands.  1/16" on the #1.  Good job.
