tim7050 Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 I haven't posted in a while. I've been busy with my grippers and Ironmind grip machine. Today I started with my filed coc 2. I had a solid close and hold with each hand. Then I tried my coc 2.5. I finally got it to close with my right. I held it for a good 5 seconds in front of a closet mirror to make sure I saw silver handles touching and no gap. No gap and handles touching. My left was a good close, but still alot of work to do. It seemed like forever before I could get over that little gap, but I finally did it. What tomorrow will bring, I don't know. All I know is that I'm going to keep training.

Closing the 2.5 is a big deal bro, especially with both hands! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tim7050 Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 Thanks Bullitt. I appreciate it. I did not close it with my left hand, it was close, but still work to do. I did close it with my right hand. I'm still very happy knowing I finally got the handles to touch with my right hand though. It has seemed like forever for me. I think I didn't clarify myself in my first post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IROC-Z Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Congrats! Closing the #2.5 is a major milestone. I've always felt that the #2.5 is the first step of the big grippers. Onward to the #3! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tim7050 Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 Thanks guys. I think you have to be persistant and not give up. I never thought I would be able to get them to touch, but my training and persistance has paid off. I have fun using my Coc grippers and Ironmind grip machine. Now to get it with my left hand.
