aeroman Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 Are there any members of this board from Des Moines or central Iowa? It would be cool to meet someone in person that actually trains grip rather than just reading about them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmmicklabs Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 I believe TomofIowa2 is from Iowa. Just a guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Rhayes Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 I go to UNI in Cedar Falls and my girlfriend is at Ames, so I'm over in that area some times. I'm somewhat new to the grip business but I did lift the blob. I also do strongman comps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roark Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 Rob, Please change your signature to 'Mr. Understatement' You have an incredible future if you choose to pursue strength competitions. I was the one who provided the three thick handled bells at the Snowman Challenge in January. Did you try the lightest (green) bell?

Tom of Iowa2 Posted April 24, 2003 Share Posted April 24, 2003 aeroman, welcome dude.I live outside of Burlington. Are you one of them thar city folks from DesMoines As Roark said about Rob...others have said the same thing about him.none of these guys throw around compliments either.....in fact they constantly remind me that I'm nothing. Lets not get too far ahead of ourselves but one guy even said about Rob:'he's sort of Pfister like...but then what was Pister doing at only 19?"..pretty much exact words. He knows his s#!t Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
