GarytheDino Posted January 1, 2004 Share Posted January 1, 2004 I'm right with you. I just need to back off for a week and I think I'll be grinding it. Been overtraining it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thomas straub Posted January 8, 2004 Share Posted January 8, 2004 You should start doing strap holds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gerryg Posted January 12, 2004 Author Share Posted January 12, 2004 My IM Close the Gap Straps are in!I hope to do a full close with the IM#2 soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bicio Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 I can fully close my single stamped #2 but trying to no-set close my #1 can make huge problems, what do oyu think? how are yours no-set closes? Don't try to close them KILL THEM!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darco Posted January 13, 2004 Share Posted January 13, 2004 GarytheDino im just wondering which gripper your close to grinding the #2 or the #3 ? Cause I just saw the hub lift and althought its a different grip I figured anybody who can duel wield hubs can smash a two. Great work either way man.

gerryg Posted February 10, 2004 Author Share Posted February 10, 2004 Do you think the chocker close collar would help me with this sticking point? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tspinillo Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 Gerry, Scrutinize how you are setting the gripper. I stared at some of the closes in the film clip gallery as well as the KTA clips. After adjusting a bit, on my thumbpad, I went from 1/4" to a credit card width on the 3. T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest veganlifter Posted February 10, 2004 Share Posted February 10, 2004 i had the same than tspinillo, for months i was only a few mm away from close with #2, only after i learned to set it "properly" (still learning it) and used some chalk i slammed it shut - probably the happiest moment of my strength training history!
