First Grip Vid - 5-10's Pinch


Billy Jack

Recommended Posts

Hey Guys

Decided to shoot and post my first ever grip vid. Thought it was time since this was my first really significant feat I've done, in my mind at least. I may be getting way ahead of myself, but I really think I can do six 10's sometime in the future. I say this because I have only been working my pinch for about 4 months on and off and the plates I used for this one are practically brand new and very slick. You can still see the upc stickers on the plates, that's how new they are. I also didn't have to use much chalk at all. My wide pinch seems to feel pretty good at the moment.

Guess I need to work on my lighting a little bit in the area I shot this before posting anything else as the vid seems a little dark. Wish me luck and thanks for watching.

nice! looked way easy for you.

6 dimes would be rad, btw.

I appreciate it Tommy.

I don't know though man, I just tried six with a bar thru the middle a little bit ago in my workout. DAYYUM is all I can say. Gonna be a tough ride to get there. Felt glued to the floor. Hard to believe 3/4" wider and 10 more lb's can make that much of a difference.

5 dimes is a solid feat of pinch that you should be proud of, 6 10s is another animal for most people without having extremely long hands. Keep up the solid work and you will get there - most of any feat starts in the mind and ends with the body performing it!

Thanks Gator. I do agree 100% with that philosophy.

My hands are above average and I can get the first crease of my fingers on the plates with six. If I can get my hand around them, they shoud be lifted. That's the way I see it.

Thanks for all the supportive comments guys.

One a side note, anyone know why the video would not embed and play here in the thread? It will do it in a PM but would not here for some reason. Any ideas?
