dayns Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 Hi, Recently bought a CoC trainer, was wondering how many reps roughly should I be abel to do before getting a #1? Out of the packet I can do about 5 on the left hand and 8 0n the right. Also I've had a look round but not sure if I should train with straight reps negatives strap holds or? Thre seems to be a bit of an information overload on where I should start! Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dimmers Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 it sounds to me as though you'd be fine getting a CoC number 1 now. You might even want to consider the 1.5 or 2 as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koura Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 I think when you can do about 20 reps with trainer, you can close the #1. That is average measure. Still many of reps don't automatically mean that you are able to close next gripper. Maybe when you get only 10 reps you can close the #1. Who knows.

gothrik Posted June 1, 2007 Share Posted June 1, 2007 I find that for me I have a 5:1 ratio on the IM grippers. I do about 160+ on the S, 30-40+ on the T, 6-10 on the 1, and 1-3 on the 1.5 Hope this helps, though everyones body is diferent. My pinch is huge compared (im propotion) to my crush. I can pinch 3 10s no problem (will be attempting 4 or 5 tonight) and its a all out max to close the 1.5 most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
