hello, i actually have the spring trainer and like you said, its heavy duty and and allows for a lot of adjustment. cant be for sure, but there is a chart for the ivanko super gripper which is built exactly the same. It shows the adjustments and numbers to make the smallest increments in weight. Though the weight may not accurate, it at least can help you gauge what settings to use. In my experience, it's been spot on with the difficulties order. It even shows the settings you want to use to match the coc gripper weights, though once again, i would take it with a grain of salt.
@@markgripstrength Good stuff! I can officially close the 1.5. Training for the 2. My little hands definitely don't help haha. How long have you been training them?
might buy that gd iron one after seing vitaly a elite armwrester hit 160kg on a crusher thermometer i need to get mine up i did a test like that in highschool where i hit 35kg wonder what mine is at now if i buy one ill try to order over your link so u can get a small kick back :D
I have HG 100, 150, 200, 250, 300 and 350. Im stuck on the 200 and even if i can get 12 reps i cant get 250. Which captain of crush gripper is OVER the HG 200 but under the 250?
Hey Will! Yes, I did get a little burnt out. I hope one day to revive it, but honestly I am happy with my gains which is unheard for the space to so I don't feel like I have much to say anymore lol. How is your training going?
You really need to learn to set handgrippers properly, you would be closing the 2 if you learn correct technique based on your "no set" attempt. Your fingers are too far into the palm of your hand by the time you reach parallel so you will lose power. Also CoC are the "gold standard" but not the highest quality ones made. AtomGripz, GHP and also probably Standard (CPW) and Baraban are higher quality. Edit: Also missed out the Vatiz/Baraban/David Horne adjustables which use springs like the Ivanko but it a more similar TSG format FINALLY - sorry for the essay - those ratings don't mean much at all. In gripsport RGC is utilised which effectively puts a handle in a vice, then a one inch strap is loaded onto the end of the other handle and weight is loaded onto it. Cannon PowerWorks has ratings data for near on 20k grippers, a CoC 2 comes in at about 100lbs on average so roughly half of what they claim. Heavy Grips/Grip Genie/Powerball/GoG etc all use the same chinese springs so their ratings are roughly similar.

That 6 springs gripper is a beast - I have seen one Guy have managed to close 4 of them :) Thank you John for your footage/review.
That's nuts. I would be glad to close the top one haha.
John dropped another gripper vid? I can't believe it
People love them.
Brother what is your religion

Another con on the big one, it slips then the springs fall. Depending on how you squeeze it warps a bit, and it slips past the stop. I just tossed it.
love my captains of crush got the 1.5, 2.0, 2.5 and 3
Can you close all of them?!
@@john-atallah No way, my best close is 2.5
I dream of closing the 3 lol

@@john-atallah I dont remember when i got them due to memory loss from psychotic episodes
@@markgripstrength Sorry to hear that Mark. I work in the mental health field so I totally understand. I hope you can continue to train :)
Wonder how much lbs in RGC requires to close the super grip with full springs?
Cool review subscribed 💪
Awesome thank you!
The IG 80/90 handle is a bit too rough it makes my skin painful after gripping do u have any recommendation on what to do ?
keep doing it your hands will adapt
buy some kind of tape, like for tennis rackets. I think gd actually makes their own tape too
might buy that gd iron one after seing vitaly a elite armwrester hit 160kg on a crusher thermometer i need to get mine up i did a test like that in highschool where i hit 35kg wonder what mine is at now if i buy one ill try to order over your link so u can get a small kick back :D
Appreciate it!

Which captain of crush gripper is OVER the HG 200 but under the 250?
amzn.to/3YvX1T5
the 2.5 is 237.5lbs.
If your that serious about grip training maybe get the big spring gripper.
Hope all is well mate, it must be exhausting trying to keep the content frequency high. Hope training is going well!

Coc is too expensive compare to cheap gripper the difference doesn't that much
Have to watch out with cheap ones. Often they don't have the resistance they claim. But if that doesn't matter to you, then that is fair.
put fatgrips on your jonson this is the best for grip)
Gain Train!
Choo Choo!
