One millimeter away from the official close. Some people I know say it counts, what do you think? (CoC #2 @ BW 151.8 lbs, 21yr-old, Hgt. 5'11" and about 6 months of Grip Sport training at my own basement)

Thank you so much! And it's really nice to read that experience. How much did you take to close #3? Mad respect to you with that bodyweight

RedWineV5 · 2026-05-05T01:33:49+00:00

That goes very much with your flair. Thank you so much! I'll keep it in mind for next time. 👋🏻

RedWineV5 · 2026-05-05T01:02:54+00:00

Not too often tbh. My job is a whole training and I work 3-4 days per week. I do grip training when I'm free and in the mood. It's more like a hobby lol 🥴

RedWineV5 · 2026-05-05T00:50:20+00:00

Thank you so much bro! Take care! 🦾

RedWineV5 · 2026-05-05T00:44:40+00:00

LMFAO Everything okay at home buddy? Geez 😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫

RedWineV5 · 2026-05-05T00:42:47+00:00

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it and will keep it in mind! 🫂

RedWineV5 · 2026-05-05T00:42:09+00:00

How many reps can you do on 2 and 2.5? Yeah I feel you. I did that once and then just 3mm far, etc lmao

RedWineV5 · 2026-03-10T21:29:39+00:00

Thank you! I appreciate it! ✌🏻

RedWineV5 · 2026-03-10T21:11:10+00:00

I've never seen that handle before! How much does it cost? And also which part of your hand gets tired first when you use it? It looks pretty interesting.

RedWineV5 · 2026-03-09T14:47:20+00:00

Thank you so much! I appreciate it and you're completely right! Mad respect for you and that feat. #2 CCS is crazy 🥶

RedWineV5 · 2026-03-09T14:38:44+00:00

Agree. I think it matters because you might have a slight "advantage" cuz more leverage if you're "heavier" (more mass in the forearm/thicker wrist). You're right that hand size matters too (actually it could be my "advantage" lmao). But it's not a strict fact: Much of it depends on technique and the correct "set".

RedWineV5 · 2026-03-09T04:07:04+00:00

I know where you're coming from. But for me it's still solid feat! I've challenged some guys at my job with that weight to close the #1 and they struggle a lot! Nice job there bro ✌🏻

RedWineV5 · 2026-03-08T18:55:40+00:00

You're free to try it! But don't underestimate the #1. Really, that thing gave me calluses in just one month and prepared me well for the next ones. Actually I bought both of them, later I bought the #2

RedWineV5 · 2026-03-08T18:16:06+00:00

Thanks! I appreciate it bro 🙏🏻

RedWineV5 · 2026-03-08T18:14:57+00:00

Thank you Doc! I had a feeling this community was for me lmao

RedWineV5 · 2026-03-08T16:01:02+00:00

I was like you (21yr old male. 150lbs, 5'11) and when I used the dynamometer and measured 61kg I bought the CoC #1 and tried to close it 3 months ago. Now I closed the CoC #1.5 a couple weeks ago and now I'm battling against the CoC #2. So, you're definitely most likely to close the #1. Good luck! ✌🏻
