John Wood Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 David, did you happen to record the bodyweight of the participants? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Piche Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 David, On the two hands dynometer, the winning result kicked rear. Did you get to practice on the device before the contest? Or, are you just that far ahead of the rest? I am wondering if specificity came into play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Horne Posted August 4, 2003 Author Share Posted August 4, 2003 John, Yes we did record the bodyweight. There was no bodyweight or age formulas in the Professional section. But here's the weight of us all incase you want to know. David Horne 97.7k Steve Gardener 116.6k Kalle Lane 135.1k Paul Preece 109.9k Arne Persson 114k Jim Wylie 101k Bill, I own the dynamometer (it's part of my collection and is about 150 years old). Jim and I have obviously had access to it, and I have trained for this contest for about 4 months. Remember that all dynamometers are different (shape,feel, etc), so I wouldn't read too much into the result. Just as a side note in that 4 months I haven't touched a CoC gripper. Anyway, thanks for all your responses, David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the swiss Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 I hope you'll have lots of pics soon to show us!! or video clips? david Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobsterone Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 I ought to have some photos back by this evening although some of the last few lifts from Sunday may still be on the roll in my camera (Digital coming - any advice on a good un etc via PM - I wanna get a new one late August / early September). There were loads of bods there with digital cameras and one or two with video cameras (may not be DV though). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Horne Posted August 4, 2003 Author Share Posted August 4, 2003 I took none. I was either lifting or reffing. But there were many taken, and a dig video recording done by Dave Warrilow. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest gripmaster316 Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 (edited) I am just curious Steve what poundage rating did that dyno go up to? Most only go up to 220 pounds?? Edited August 4, 2003 by gripmaster316 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobsterone Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 1000 lbs. Its not a grip dyno per se but a dynometer which can be used for grip strength testing. Some go much higher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Horne Posted August 4, 2003 Author Share Posted August 4, 2003 Amaury, It would be good to see you. I think you will have a great time. gripmaster316, Many of the earlier dynamometers like the Regnier (1798), were not only used to find the strength of the hands, but also used as a link for a kind of deadlift trial to test the back strength, and also as a link to test the strength of horses! Hence the larger poundage range. Edme Regnier's dynamometer was the first of this kind, with the eliptical spring. Others like the Charriere and Tiemann followed.

Guest gripmaster316 Posted August 4, 2003 Share Posted August 4, 2003 (edited) Dave, have you ever had your hand tested on a medical grade hand dynamometer? I guess with your hand it would go right of the scale. Edited August 4, 2003 by gripmaster316 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
