Brights Gripper Log

[Bright508620]

Hey everyone. My name is Casey Bright.

Well im really just trying to get my grip as strong as possible for now. Im 18 years old and i have found grip training to be one of the things i truly love. I don't think i will ever let it go. Even when i go to college!

My youtube page is up. Check out my vids. Subscribe to me and ill subscribe back:)

So ive been grip training for about 8 months now (a couple [2] real serious months), and as you can see, im getting close to the number 3 MMS. Its a goal of mine to do it by the end of the year, but we will have to wait and see what happens.

I plan on letting people see my workouts on here and i plan to share my knowledge with all! I might not be getting everything up but ill get up as much as i can. Thanks!

Not only do i do gripper work. I lift weights, i plan on playing football in college, and maybe someday doing MMA. So grip is very important. I also do Fat Gripz work (fat bar), pinch lifts (hub, Plates), Wrist Roller and forearm work (all for grip).

I have seen your vids on youtube. Great stuff. If you train hard, maybe you can certify on the #3 as a teenager. Not many people have done that. Good luck

Oh man. That would be crazy. The thing is, is that im 18 turning 19 next January. If you've seen my videos im not even MMS the #3 yet

But its alright. I am training my butt off to get the MMS as soon as i can (im close). Ill keep all you updated

Good luck with your goals, getting close to crushing that #3!

Just out of interest (i'm trying to gauge my own strength, i'm a little behind you in the grip department) - how many consecutive MMS reps of the #2 can you currently do/could you do when you first closed the #2.5?

I know reps doesn't translate to max strength in the same way for everyone, but i think its a useful rough guide and i'd like to be able to crush a #2.5 out of the packet before i get one. Currently at about 10 CCS reps with my #2 both hands - although i think i have an easy #2.

Cheers,

Pat

I don't know for sure. But i would say that you would have to do about 15-20. I can do around high 20's to low 30's depending on the day right now. So i would say if you can do high teens, you would be able to smash the #2.5

Cheers for the advice

I got the #2.5 on Friday and crushed it out of the packet!! right hand anyway, left had a little way to go, but i think that's more down to the set than anything else, don't really practice setting left handed.
