Saturday 17th November 2012

Saturday
Prelude: Many, many months ago=, having sold my Gloucester home, I decided to treat myself to one of thew GHP grippers from Wade Gillingham's Superstore. I contacted Wade to ask what might be good and he, rather than let me buy one, send me one to allow me to complete the GHP challenge.  Well, being between homes and without a camera etc, it sat in the box it had arrived in - sealed and unopened - for months. Having finally settled in my new home here in South Wales and with the new love of my life camera's on hand (Dawn) I decided this Saturday was a good a time as any.

TSG gripper work
warmed up with Vulcan 1/1 x 8 reps, 3/3 x 3 reps, swapped to a CoC 3 x 1 rep and a CoC 3.5 x 1 rep. All set as per.

I started with the RH and followed the terms and conditions (so box opened on camera, gripper stays in view and the enclosed block is used). It was a GHP 8 and I did 2 reps on camera. For some reason my pc would not recognize Dawn's memory card so I am waiting on her to send me a file to forward to Wade. Following the attempt I also did a few set attempts with myt left hand (VVN) and several more wide closes, no block used, in my office while we faffed around with the memory card etc If my attempt is recognized I will be alongside Juha and Andrew D in the top 3-4 spot (so probably No 5). I'm fairly confident I can equal Nathan H at No 1 with the GHP 9 for 1 rep.  gillinghamhp.com

2HP
to 111.2-kilos x 4 x 1 mostly solid reps (second moved a tiny bit)
