Guest Jeff Roark Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 (edited) I have been doing alot more no set closes as of late and something I have been doing is placing my hands as close to the spring as I can and still remain on the handles. Its pretty tough and makes 1 and 2s much harder. This has been the main bulk of my gripper work along with a couple attempts on my #3 which I am making a stab at. Has anyone else used the method of closing the gripper much closer to the spring? has it made any difference? I have had the thoughts that everytime I started training my grippers I am always looking for some secret method or some change in set or style. I seem to have forgotten plain simple hard work. This time around I am going to just let the volume of the shuts do the work for me. Edited September 4, 2003 by Jeff Roark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKE HALEY RILEY CLOE Posted September 4, 2003 Share Posted September 4, 2003 Jeff, I used to hold as close to the springs as I could for some cool down sets of 3. I got to being able to almost close the #2 this way and was able to do the #1 for a couple of sets, it is much harder in my opinion. I did not personally notice any carry over effect, it is such a different feel. On the other hand , it is probably as useful as inverted training, works for some people, but maybe not everyone.
