mithras Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 (edited) I've managed to shut my old IM# 3 once (when peaking with my last serious grip training) - with a slightly wider than parallel set and lightly touching the spring with 1 finger. Sam - Coc#3 has tried it and said it's reasonably stout, it's single stamped and about 3" wide. I weighed about 165 lbs at the time and I've got small hands and very short fingers, so it can be done regardless of hand size! Although I have to stay at 154-165 for the arm wrestling I'm doing atm, I'll have a proper crack at grip again soon and see if I can get on the MM ladder.

Teemu I Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Danny I did not talk about Kinney, it was Sam who mentioned him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyGrip Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Danny I did not talk about Kinney, it was Sam who mentioned him. Oooh my mistake - sorry! The logo threw me off over there. I think the best Certification video I've seen is Teemu's #3. The music, the different language, the whole scene is just WICKED - then you got this guy manhandling the #3 twice and holding it w/ so much power!!! I believe the video was posted right when I first started gripper training and this really inspired me . Zammer - thanks for the compliment. It's a way of life...I run 4X a week religiously / lift about 5X. I'm more into fitness / having a nice physique than powerlifting, though my lifts (bench, deadlift, etc.) are OK.
