If you want to max out I would recommend easing into it. You mostly do 8ish rep sets. Do a workout with 6 rep sets, than one with 4 rep sets, than two and then max out. If you had any knee problems in the past knee wraps might be a good idea otherwise don't bother. :-)

Lol well i didn't mean in terms of trying to milk it for more weight, i just meant in terms of injury prevention. I wouldn't do heavy squats or deads without a belt no matter how much of a sissy people think it makes me.

Thanks roy...i will smooth into it like you said instead of just going for it. I haven't had problems with my knees, but i noticed that my knee clicks a little. I never knew it happened until i squatted with the gym music off.

Yeah. I was just saying that to my wife the other day 'that PeterSweden dude is getting pretty thin arms compared to Anthony' lol

- sniff- Ok. (wipes tears away) back to you Anthony.

[Anthony C.]

Hahahaha thanks guys. Honestly for the amount of time i have training, i should be much bigger. My genetics are terrible. But i'm making a focused effort to get my wrist strength up so it felt good to curl the 25

Grip yesterday:

Grippers

Right Hand: 1xghp 6 134, 1xghp 6 134, hair miss x ghp 6 134, Miss GM 138, Static hold with 2.5 125

Left: 4xBBM 1118, 1xbbm 118, 5xbbSA wide sets, 5xSA wide sets

*After my first set off hand, my setting strength just tanked. This is very frustrating because i know my off hand is good for much more*

Hub

Right: 4x38.75, 4x38.75, 5x36.25, Holds with 30

Left: 6x35, 5x35, 2x36.25

For last set, I alternated each hand just repping out 30. I think I got about 15 per hand

Sledge Curls

Right: 5x11.25, 4x11.25, 6x10, Hold with 10 at bottom

Left: 4x11.25, 2x11.25, 5x10, Hold with 10 at bottom

Good workout! I think I would've nailed the 138 GM had I attempted it first. The spread is much more narrow than my ghp 6, which is just an absolute spread monster.

[Anthony C.]

Yeah! Was just beasting it out today. Leg presses felt awesome. Nice clean full range reps. Was super winded after this session. I think my fat grips deads would've been better had I not tried them less than 24 hours after a grip workout, but most likely not too much stronger anyway.

[Royz]

Leg Press

20x733, 15x823, 15x913, 8x1053

Leg press monster! You should be on the 'legpressboard'.

[jvance]

Keep doing those FG barbell stuff. Your baseline grip will get much stronger than if you always do specific like pinching or grippers etc.... Thickbar is all around more bang for your buck in terms of total strength and grip. If I were you I'd do them more

Thanks jon, yeah I'm starting to see the importance in thickbar now. It's sad that I can't even DO fat gripz deadlift 225 yet. In my defense, I have really small hands lol. I recently bought a 2'' PVC pipe that I have to cut to fit around my barbell at home so I can do even more stuff.

[jvance]

Chris James hands are smaller than mine.... Enough said lol

Hell yeah, hope your day gets better.

I'm just starting down the road of grip training so it's cool to see what can be done by others.

Oh yeah man, stay consistent and eat well and you'll get there. There will be many days where weights you previously manhandled feel like bricks, when grippers refuse to close and when your hand just slips on bars. But stay consistent and eventually you'll get there. Keep us updated on your progress and don't be afraid to ask questions!

[Jared Goguen]

Thanks Anthony, much appreciated.

[Jüri Sankman]

Good evenig,

Just finished reading too! hehe.

Im slowly starting my grip road and this training log fits me well, because with grip strenght Im in same spot with your few posts in beginning. Here is so much information, so much stuff to learn from you, and not only you, but from those who comment back and share their knowledge. Really so much help to take from here! Thank you for your effort (writing it all down here).

My first gripper was hg200, then #2.5 and then #1, hehehe, strange, I know.

Wishing you the very best in your workouts and thanks one more time!
Waiting your next logs here, will read!

Thank you for your post juri! Im glad you're learning from this log. The guys who help me here are great people with a wealth of knowledge to share and I owe so much of my progress to them. As the saying goes, we are only as good as the people we associate with. Glad to have you here, brother!
