gripster25 Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 hey i can close the #1 20 times in my left and right hand, is it now time to get the #2 gripper? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubgeezer Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 If I were you, I would have the 1.5, the 2, and the 2.5. It is always a good idea to have grippers stronger than you can currently close. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gripster25 Posted June 15, 2008 Author Share Posted June 15, 2008 thanks, yeah i could then use the 2.5 to do negatives and such, it's just i probably can't afford 3 at once right now, probably 2 max, which would you suggest if i could only get 2?

abagh89 Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 since you cant get all 3 i think you should get the 2 and 2.5. since you can close the 1 20x i dont think having the 1.5 will give you much improvement vs the other two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubgeezer Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 thanks, yeah i could then use the 2.5 to do negatives and such, it's just i probably can't afford 3 at once right now, probably 2 max, which would you suggest if i could only get 2? Depends on your progress. If you are a slow progressor, I would get the 1.5 and the 2. If you are average or above average on progression, then I would get the 2 and 2.5. There is no question you can MASH the 1.5. Sometimes we need to buy more grippers just to have closed a tougher one. If your thriftiness can beat out your ego, you can jump to the 2. At one time, I had 12 different grippers between the 2 and 3. I was a slow improver and needed to move up the smallest bit on the food chain. My kids were grown so I didn't have to fund them any more, spent many dollars on grippers. Have since given away to my son, traded, sold, etc. I am down to a mere 6 in that range.

gumpster Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 If you can close the #1 20 times you needed the #2 months ago. I bet you'll close it first try and maybe even the #2.5. I'd get the #2 & #2.5 if you can only get 2 at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gripster25 Posted June 15, 2008 Author Share Posted June 15, 2008 thanks for all the advice guys, i'm going to go for the 2 and 2.5 and see how things go with those Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magnus Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Go with a #2 and 2.5. I'll bet you can already smash the #2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquilonian Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 get a #2 a #3 and have some patience. for now try closing your #1 from all the way up. with your index all the way up the handle, instead of your pinky all the way to the bottom.
