You wanna point the bottom of the handles at the camera when you close it, otherwise you can't tell whether you got it or not. I'll take your word for it though, good job.

I didn't watch the video, but that's pretty good closing the #1.5 on your first try. You have the potential to close the #3.

Co-sign... It looked dubious to me... we can't really see whether it is in fact the 1,5 either... |

Thats cool ill just make another vid and show you, on the bottom it says CoC #1 but the package it came in said the 1.5.
Also you guys mentioned earleir working on your wrist extensors to avoid CT, would reverse curling be an exercise to help prevent ct?

A #1.5 will say 1.5 on the handle. If you bought this directly from Ironmind you should email Randy and tell him they made a mistake on your order.
And you do know that a gripper isn't fully closed unless the handles touch, right?

I hope we aren't overstating our lifts again...
In any case, the #1.5 will have a 1.5 on the bottom. If I'm not mistaken, the ".5" versions of the CoC grippers are inexact. This means there is variation between one #1.5 and another #1.5, unlike the the 1,2,3, and 4. Closing a #2 would better help you gauge your crush strength relative to others. |
