2008 GGC Details

The 2008 GGC is the only grip contest that I'm planning on competing in this next year. It will be in Pennsylvania like last year, probably August or September. I'll be driving to PA with a group of guys that are also fellow grip trainers.

The events are tentatively:

GRIPPERS-PARALLEL SET
2 HAND PINCH
REVERSE BENDING
ROLLING THUNDER FOR REPS
PINCH MEDLEY

Nice assortment of lifts that will favor whoever does the most overall well rounded workouts.

My goals for the contest will be:

GRIPPERS: Super Elite
2HP: 200
REVERSE BENDING: 7" Hexabastard
RT FOR REPS: Top 5 Placing

PINCH MEDLEY: Top 5 Placing

Some of these goals are purposely set very high so that I'll have something to look forward to and reach for. I'll be in the Large Hand category and will have a battle on my hands to get even 5th place, and 10th will be more likely if I don't hit these goals or very close to them.
