kyle102887 Posted January 29, 2004 Author Share Posted January 29, 2004 (edited) but it seems to have a high weight capacity can't knock that well unless they are lying?? Edited January 29, 2004 by kyle102887 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AP Posted January 29, 2004 Share Posted January 29, 2004 yeah but it doesn't seem to leave enough room to cheat the weight up with the other hand for negatives. there would be no reason to have that much weight especially without being able to do negs...

Tom of Iowa2 Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 If it wasn't so expensive I'd like to try it. I remember when i first found out about it I showed it to a machinist friend (who manufactures equipment)to see if he'd make me one and he wasn't interested. I think it would be a good work out and test...just out of my price range. Another thought:I think-in a contest situation-where there are spectators- it would be more interesting to watch(for the spectators)than squeezing grippers and such?people do prefer to see objects or weight moved than 'springythings'. Hang a big nasty anvil from there and you've got a 'visual' event.... Also?i'd still like to hear if anyone has ever used it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AP Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 Agreed, it also looks like it would be easier to load/unload weight than the traditional slide style grip machine. but for that price i dunno... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darco Posted January 30, 2004 Share Posted January 30, 2004 (edited) Im gonna have to say that no matter what you do, a legitamate grip contest will never be interesting to watch, and if its good for spectators than the competitors will probably complain about the events being more for show than for strength (Worlds Stongest Man Style).
