Chez Posted January 25, 2015 Author Share Posted January 25, 2015 Pretty cool, Chez! All the focus it takes to fire your non-dominant hand at the same time as your dominant is no easy feat. Congrats. Thanks Bob. This was actually my third attempt today. The first I tried to film by myself and that wasn't happening. The second one I got but my sister closed the video before we showed the bottom of the handles. This is super tough to get on video and its really hard to concentrate on both hands at the same time. I can no set either of these grippers with either hand no problem right now but I had to dig deep for both at the same time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chez Posted February 28, 2015 Author Share Posted February 28, 2015 Going to update the log later today, but I wanted to post this video. I had a fantastic crush session today. I worked up to 3 straight MMS singles with my 194.45 lb RGC Super Elite. The last time I did this was right before my MM6 certification when My crush was at its peak. Pretty happy that my crush is finally back to peak level. Now I have to go farther then I ever have.............. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
