I used Joe's advice for my grip work and it worked well. I think I will be able to close the CoC #1 soon.

After looking at my haphazzard crush-grip training, Joe commented:

Give this a try:
Walmart Gripper- 2 sets of 5, no setting, slowly squeeze for the first set (about 2 seconds per close), squeeze hard and fast on the second set.
HG 150- 2 sets of 2, no set closes
CoC #1- Quality Singles, slighty set it for proper placement, do as many singles as you can comfortably do, if you can't get any do a couple singles with the HG150 and return
HG 150- 1 set, 1-2 reps shy of failure, no greater than 8 reps, hard and fast.

Plenty of rest between ALL sets.

I stuck to his rules and got 3 good quality singles on the CoC #1. I am going to shift the grip training to a separate day just for this. It requires patience and concentration and I don't think this sort of grip training is suitable for the gym as much.

I'm sure you will get the #1 soon enough. Thanks for commenting.

My next blog post is geared towards gripper training expectations and I'm leaning towards including some training methodology as well. Keep an eye for it.

The strength trainee says "Why sacrifice intensity when I can sacrifice volume"
The bodybuilder says "Why sacrifice intensity when I can sacrifice form"

I think so too. There was a major improvement in the quality of those reps too. I think your progression scheme is awesome and I am going to adopt your policy of having them on a separate day. It makes a lot of sense and I think progress will come better that way too.

You can count on that! :)

Another great guide, Joe. I'm just amazed by the depth you go into.

And good hand modeling by Anuj, lol.
