I'm going to start using my grippers more. One of the movements I like to use is the Telegraph Key ( from Ironmind.) I use other movements for overall hand
strength, but I'm not sure they will specifically improve the grippers. I do remember that "strap holds" are a popular way of adding resistance
to a gripper. I'm going to use my grippers as soon as I get off the computer in a few minutes.

I am stuck at about half an inch to go on the 2.5. Have been there a while. I usually will go to failure on an easier one,I have a few with the handles filed
down, or do some negatives with the 2.5 or 3

Griff, are you able to set the gripper in a closed position (use both hands and push gripper against thigh) then just do neg and holds. I used the Heavy Grips
set (150-300) and got close with the 250 but ended up with arthritis in middle finger of left hand. Sometimes now I have to pop that finger before I can pick
up a 45.
