Road to the #3 cert and potentially more

[Jermiah Merciconah]

Road to Omega problem, I'm crushing milestones at an accelerating pace

1 wide set rep on my GHP 8, Long feud with this gripper as it got my right hand injured half way through 2021 

3x wide set reps on my #3

5x wide set reps on the 2.5

I bought a 70mm Mazurenko eccentric handle which should arrive here in a couple weeks, It will be interesting to see what gets here first the handle or the #3 cert gripper

 

Treading my toes into the armwrestling world, Seeing if i can score high on the Mazurenko, If i can get 45kg thats gonna be big problem

[Jermiah Merciconah]

Even moving ever closer to the #3 cert my strength still increases

That was a strong, smooth close--especially for a harder gripper!  Congratulations!

[matek]

Dominating close, congrats!

Congrats Jermiah, great job!

Congrats Jermiah! Good luck on your way to 3.5!

 

P.S. I also want to emphasise that I'm sick and tired of Ironmind's biased judgement (card swipe).

[John Knowlton]

NICE WORK

It definitely seems like different people get judged differently on the card swipe, I was actually scared that i'd be denied due to how fast i swiped it, But then have seen folks who grind the card through the handles pass on the cert

That's what I said them after they declined my attempt last year. They said "it won't be accepted anymore", LOL.

The randomness of the gripper's RGC and unstable judgement criteria are frustrating

Its been a hell of a long time since i logged here but i figured i should do an update

I've levelled up a hell of a ton since my #3 cert

4x #3.5 reps

5x #3 reps

8x #2.5 reps

Both the #3 and #2.5 were 2 sets each

Damn man, just saw this on IronMind (was away from media for a bit), congratulations! The "road to the 3 cert" is over, now it's time for the "potentially more"

You're asking for the "potentially more" part, Well its now time for that

 

3.5 close in training today caught me off guard it was so easy

@Jermiah MerciconahHell of a strong CCS close!  What is the rating on that #3.5?  

[Jermiah Merciconah]

Been a month since i've updated here, Been training my a** off, Ordered a 195 rated Tungsten from CPW which i'm hyped to arrive

Been training 5x3s on my harder 3.5 to prepare myself

 

Current status of forearm and wrist with said 3.5 for reference

I have no way to know 100% accurately since its not rated but its slightly easier in feel than my Gen 1 176 rated titanium

[Jermiah Merciconah]

Recently bought a 195 rated Tungsten from CPW, My own personal review is that the Gen 2 standard grippers are basically perfect grippers, Combining what is great about alot of grippers with none of the drawbacks of the Gen 1 standards, Smooth sweep of GHP, Sharper knurling than tettings with the black spring and pins to match, Consistent width and just feels good in the hand with the standardized handle thickness

I gave it a good send and i think will be there in the coming weeks
