Saturday - 7/11

45 degree hypers w/weight
Reverse Hypers
Many chins/dips - great warmup for grip
Used spud dip belt. Heavy nylon webbing much more comfortable then old leather piece

Right - Plate Pinching
Left - Go Really - Grippers. The comeback road is paved with rocks.
Both - Titans telegraph

We noticed the recent pinhead debate over the no-set/MM Set cheating nonsense.
If you want to close big grippers, you need to gain strength to plow through the last 1/4". Nothing
will work better than deep setting and concentrating on that range. Working no set with lighter grippers will only get you to a certain level. The room temperature IQ stance comparing MM setting to bench shirts holds no water.

Brookfield's writings are full of "setting the gripper" so you can get the best position for your hand size. As you begin murdering the "close" everything will come up.

Remember - Block weights = Hand Strength
