Norden Posted December 16, 2015 Author Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) Sean's Ah, yeah, I like that one too. I remember reading somewhere that he only trained tns, which makes it extra cool. What makes me extra impressed by Jang Sung-hyun's cert is how he LITERALLY makes it look like a trainer. He closes the thing so fast. The sweep should look way harder. You often kind of see 2 "phases" of the sweep when a person is closing a gripper with a wide set like that, but not with this guy.

anwnate Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 Yup...pretty darn impressive. No doubt he was super prepared...but whenever I see a manhandled cert I start wondering about the rating. 138-160...it can play a huge factor. I prefer the mm ladder for that reason. 3 Quote Current Goal: Train consistently...consistently.

Yeah, I thought about it too. If you can confidently CCS, lets say, a #3 at 155 any workout, then a 140 at the day of the cert probably will look something like in his video if you're well prepared and fired up.

Chez Posted December 16, 2015 Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) To me when someone dominates a gripper in some crazy way during a certification it means they waited longer than they had to for the cert. They also risked getting injured before hand and not certing at all. I guess I just don't get the need to wait that long. I also don't get the need to skip lesser certifications along the way (not applicable here but I always didn't get that either).

They also risked getting injured before hand and not certing at all. I guess I just don't get the need to wait that long. I also don't get the need to skip lesser certifications along the way (not applicable here but I always didn't get that either).My thoughts exactly. Couldnt have said it better dude.It is one thing to train only TNS, like Doc, and do your cert that way. But completely another to wait a cert out until its so far beneath your actual ability that its not even worth doing. Imo, if your goal is to cert, even if you have further plans to cert higher, later, then you need to do it as soon as your able. otherwise you risk unjury and never certing anything in your quest for higher whatever. But then again, it is quite possible ths guy had a 160# 3 that he trained with, and refused to cert till he could CCs it, then got a low 140s gripper on his cert... And since i can completely not understand the mentality behind "waiting" to cert after your strong enough, i like to believe that the latter was the case. I remember reading he was ready for the cert and got injured, then had to work back up again, so he had already good strength I guess. I would never wait for the cert, when I can do it, I'll do the request. Although I must say, having an attempt under the belt already makes me preferably come back much stronger then needed if you catch my drift. Seeing the RGC results from CPW lately for IM#3's I definitely want to be able to CCS the top of those grippers before going for it again. It is however for this cert very difficult to stay in that linear or even progressive strengthline. 1 Quote Started training June 2008 MM level 1 Ghp7 GSS certified Some videos.... http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC_y-TPakQE6zfc18qWgZW7Q

king crusher Posted December 18, 2015 Posted December 18, 2015 I would say he trained on a heavy three and his cert gripper was a low three. Plus like others have said, his adrenalin is pumping for a cert I'm sure. Good work either way. Quote
