Just Talked With Joe Kinney...
I've mentioned a couple times that we are hard at work on several "top secret" projects -- well let me give you a few details on one of these projects.
Joe Kinney, as you may or may not know, is the first man to close the Iron Mind #4 gripper -- and he didnt just close it, he mashed it like it was nothing more than a Trainer.
Well, it took some doing but I finally was able to contact Mr. Kinney and this morning, we talked for well over 90 minutes about all kinds of things "grippin," leg training, what it really takes to close the big grippers and even a few training techniques that he hasn't shared with many people...
I know you're curious... but it's going to have to wait until the time is right for more details on what we have cooked up.
In the meantime, theres who things you can do:
1. Tell the world.
and
2. Get a couple of your own IM hand grippers, cuz its about
time you started REALLY training your hands: Iron Mind Grippers
More to come...
Train hard,

Are You Up To The New Challenge?
I just got word of some exciting news from the folks over at Iron Mind -- you know about their certification for closing their #3 and #4 grippers right?
Well they just announced that they are going to open up a new list for their 3.5 level gripper which I think is a great idea.
I've closed it in the past, but not consistently, so now that's going to be my prioroty this summer -- Ill let you in on a few techniques that Ill be using at a later date. And you know when I do it, it will be done in a way where theres no
question at all as to who is the big dog...
For now though, the race is one to see whos going to have the "right stuff" to get the list. If you havent already done so, here's where to get your own 3.5 and any of the other IM tweener grippers youll need: Iron Mind "Tweener" Hand Gripppers
Train hard,
