Can't imagine that, but believe they did. I live in Europe, and buying a gripper, either GHP, or CoC, is expensive, because I have to pay for shipping. For one GHP I will have to pay about $50. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deep set attempts and closes like Nathan holle does is one way to do it or negatives but I do not recommend negatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikhael Posted January 1, 2023 Author Share Posted January 1, 2023 To close my unrated 200 I was doing iso-closes with 150. Works good, and I was finally able to close 200 without touching it. Maybe this way will works with #2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on your goal, if you wanna get certified then getting grippers with same handle diameter is a good idea. However if you just want some good quality grippers and don't have specific goals, then you could consider Robert Baraban grippers aswell. He's located in Austria, so there's no expensive shipping. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blacksmith513 Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Great work, what exactly is your morning flexibility routine? I saw a video on Strongfirst years ago, i basically rotate all my joints each way about 5-10 reps each.. Neck to ankle, plus side lung and squatting low and prying my hips open with elbows. Takes about 3 minutes and it really gets me warmed up for some light calisthenics. I miss being 18 and rolling out of bed and doing whatever i want.

Blacksmith513 Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 (edited) @mikhaelalso meant to ask you. What are your thoughts on the Isochain from Dragon Door if you are familiar with it? Might make one but it would be nice to have that handle that shows resistance. Edited January 4, 2023 by Blacksmith513 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikhael Posted January 5, 2023 Author Share Posted January 5, 2023 @John Knowlton Thanks @Blacksmith513 My father build something like Isochain for me, but I tried it once or twice. Even though I do Isometrics, I haven't train on this often. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
