Would be insane to see someone actually close this thing as intended I just use it for chest crush training for steel bending. If anyone can close it though it’s Carl. It’s 46lbs heavier than the GHP 10 he closed so I don’t think he could do it yet but it may be attainable if he really wanted to build up to it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feeler gauges are better for feeling for a close 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice grippers. New goal gripper for Carl maybe? Should be pretty good as chest crush gripper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cannon Posted June 5 Share Posted June 5 1 hour ago, C8Myotome said: This is the way. There is no eyeballing anything. You want a "heavy drag" on your feeler gauge that confirms the handles are effectively close with no extra weight added to the scale. If the handles are actually allowed to touch fully, the readout can spike and you get false high ratings that are all over the place. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This may explain my slightly higher ratings on some of my Grippers compared to those I purchased from you. Thank you @Cannon I don't think my method of testing is just my experience in testing, haha. Thanks to everyone for the help! Edited June 5 by AllMight_ added more text. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllMight_ Posted Monday at 04:47 PM Share Posted Monday at 04:47 PM (edited) Good afternoon, all of you. My last mistake was not cleaning the grippers to remove any chalk on the spring. Considering this, I finally adjusted the numbers of my gripper collection and even rated the ones provided by Cannon Power Works to confirm we are within a similar range. I probably did not have to go through all of this trouble, but I did to ensure I had my collection ordered to fill all the gaps. Thank you to @C8Myotome and @Cannon for all the feedback on how to rate my grippers better. Here is the updated list of my grippers for today. Decimals were rounded before I stamped them. Yes, there are 2 COC2.5, and one is more difficult than the other. CPW = CannonPowerWorks SF = Self Rated at my Gym StrengthFirst Edited Monday at 04:49 PM by AllMight_ typo 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d love to have a board like that to place mine on as well. I just haven’t gotten one yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
