  • There are always people who can do nothing more than be negative...luckily YouTube is full of people like that. Thanks for showing us your shallow mind.

  • that not funny. I call it cheating.

  • call it whatever you like

  • is it defenitely beneficial to choke grippers?

  • yes...it allows you to specifically work the last 1/4-1/2" of your closing range

  • impressive!

  • thank you

see all

  • @ElysionFieldsBand this is absolutely right! Joe Kinney did it with his sweat blood and tears! Now look at this guy here showing off on youtube how he squeezes the last 2 centimeters of the gripper - what the hell is that??! When you're doing chin-ups you don't do the last 10 centimeters of the lift, do you?? What kind of half-ass workouts are these??

  • what kind of hard work is that?

    joe kinney didnt do any choked style positions, but all sweat, blood, and pure 100% american hard work

  • @3goldy Well, I call it a very useful training tool. That type of training helps one finish off the final centimetre of a gripper. It is actually easier to almost close a gripper for reps than to fully close it for one rep, however I can understand the misconception if you have only trained with store-bought grippers. This may not be a certification close, but it is still a useful training tool.

  • theres a video on my page illustrating this

  • @filcox the metal has a tolerance, it will bend slightly before the spring begins to coil up (i.e close) and said tolerance on the 4 is more than an 8th of an inch per handle. So all u did is bend the handles. If you had a shred of intelligence you'd of realised this already

  • @GripExponant Uuuumm, what?! I don't think you know what you're talking about.

  • choked grippers are an excellent way of improving strength but closing the gripper at such a small range normally means your bending the handles to make the close insted of the actual spring

  • @3goldy That's a legitimate training tool, it helps you with the last part of the close, which is miles harder than the first part.

  • Hey! great "close" and a pretty smart way to work with the last bit! Does it "work"? cause then ill try it my self, allthough iam currently working with the coc 2 but same thing, it needs to be closed :D

    keep up the god work!
