I may have some bigger ones on the way at some point. But we will see what happens. 191lb bell is very tough.. honestly didn't expect a full lift of it today but that's how grip is some days. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't grasp how difficult the 191lb must be and you're already thinking bigger/badder bells. hahaha Seriously...I tried John Foelber's 172 after Maryland's Strongest Hands and that thing seemed glued to the floor.

Super long term, grip is life long... best bell my left has lifted is my 172 and my right just did the 191 (and that's the first full lift).. don't get me wrong I want to continue to gain strength and climb the ladder but these bells heavier than the Inch aren't just walk up anytime of day and pull them type lifts for me. But Yeah Doug I was super happy with the 191 lift... one of my best lifts or biggest lifts in a long time. Just gonna continue to follow my current plan and not try to chase maxs and prs like that everyday because that's physically and mentally deflating. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well...whatever you're doing it seems to be working. You had an amazing 191 lift. The grippers seem to be going in the right direction. And my goodness...tossing a blob to @Ben Helms. Awesome stuff these days. Very exciting to see. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZRMMA Posted July 18, 2023 Author Share Posted July 18, 2023 (edited) These were just random cert bars that came with some steel I bought. I went ahead and did the certs for fun. Filming is long due to it being a cert etc. Can always skip ahead to the 2-3 secs of bending. Edited July 18, 2023 by ZRMMA 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess you got the 9/32" rods as well, that will be more fun! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These just came in a beginner box that I got ... I'm gonna buy some more stuff and work my way up. But I'm really not a steel bender and don't fully know what I'm doing. Just taking some advice of others and kind of winging it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are going to dominate any bar that you put in your hands. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went out of order and just watched episode 1 tonight. Awesome stuff... There are portions of the episode that talk about the friendly and supportive atmosphere of the grip community and I 100% agree. Hearing Zach and Joe describe it and their respective experiences makes me all the more appreciative of the what we have here and thankful that I joined. I've only been on the GripBaord since January (and I've seen less than 1% of you in person) but I've met so many quality people here it's simply amazing. Just really cool to have this forum and the opportunity to be a part of grip sport. But more importantly...it's each of you that makes the grip community so great. Thank you... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
