The first 10min or so go over CoC gripper technique. I think you would benefit a lot from watching it.

I’ve never done a set close. I just close it lol. i think if i learn to set it i’d close higher level grippers real quick. I can almost close the 2. Thanks for that video man!!

Awesome work on the front squat but I was more excited to see your progress on deadlifts! Keep going, Duke. You have many decades ahead of growth ahead of you.
