AlexR Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 Managed 4 reps on the 2.5 right hand tonight.A couple of good 260 closes,and some left hand singles with the 2. Had another bash at the 3,got it to about 3mm,but couldn't get it closed.I am working with the 3 from a parallel set,I don't really want to set it much deeper,as I am stubborn It will fall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexR Posted September 13, 2010 Author Share Posted September 13, 2010 I also have to say,tonight is the closest I have been to closing the 3.After a nice squat workout so that helps.Still feel its a long road yet,best enjoy the ride Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only bought the 2.5 three weeks ago.I had been using the 2 for overcrushes and reps,and a tougher gripper for negatives.I bought it to test my metal so to speak,and closed it out the packet.I have been using grippers for about 4 months,so its quite a short time,just found my hand strength rocket after buying a COC1. I am supplementing the grip stuff with a basic 3 day a week,bench,squat and deadlift routine,and my strength has shot through the roof.I know it seems a short time in which to be chasing the 3 but I am so close If it takes me 12 months to close it I will,and then onwards and upwards.I am 41 years of age Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
