CMunger Posted March 15, 2004 Share Posted March 15, 2004 All this gripper set no set shpitstorm has gotten me thinking about ye olde grippres again, no setted my #2 to my surprise (7 3/8" hands). So, I'm going to make a public spectacle of my lazy butt trying to nail the BBGM so I can get on the GripBoard MMG0 list. I'm gonna grab my grippers, see what happens and post here for some future hindsight and possibly enough accountability to get a solid week or two of gripper work in.

CMunger Posted March 15, 2004 Author Share Posted March 15, 2004 Sunday 3/14: Grippers during Sopranos. Warmup 10 reps #1 rest: FBI guys are arguing about botched jury tampering investigation 10 reps #1 rest: Junior finds out Carmine died overnight and goes off on a death kick again. 5 reps #2 rest: Carmine's funeral. BBGM attempt/negative Adrianna has a skanky friend. BBGM attemp/negative Random #1 closes with left and right during Steve Buscemi's home from prison party BBGM pretty much just a negative. Feels like good enough for round 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMunger Posted March 16, 2004 Author Share Posted March 16, 2004 3/15 Bunch of squeezes on the BB Beginner to try to warm up/loosen up. 12 reps #1 continued warm-up. 1 rep #2, nice and slow. Haven't put more than 60 secs of rest between any of these so far. Gonna try to take a few minutes here. Grrr, pinky slipped off on BBGM attempt. Talk about a semi-painful wiff. BBGM Attempt/Negative My harder #3 double negative (force close, resist open, then immediately re-force close, resist) Couple practice sets with my BB Beginner. Wrist feels a bit funky. Make a mental note to lay off grippers after Weds for a bit. BBGM Attempt/Negative - It's going downhill fast here. Finished up w/ a couple #2 overcrushes.

CMunger Posted March 18, 2004 Author Share Posted March 18, 2004 Aight, it's Thursday. I did some light bending last night (enough I can kinda feel it) and I have big bending on Sunday. Plus I can't find my gripper bag, so all I have is my BB Beginner that my kid was playing with. So, here's the extent of today's gripper stuff: Slam the BBB shut, with the intention of making the loudest click I can. Repeat dozens and dozens of times with both hands. Right is definitely louder than left. I'll prolly layoff until after Sunday at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
