Jaime McEwen told IronMind that his father introduced him to the Captains of Crush No. 1 Gripper about four years ago, getting him, “hooked.  From there,” he said,  “I progressed to the No. 2 and the 2.5 fairly quickly.” 

The CoC No. 3 proved to be more of a challenge, but among other things, Jaime credits kettlebell work, along with thick handled barbell and dumbbell lifts, for paving the way to his next round of grip-strength progress.  “Unlike the 20-rep squat routine which we all know guarantees gains, I find grip training to be a bit more elusive.  Find what works and keep progressing,” Jaime recommended.

Jaime McEwen is living proof that he put the pieces of the puzzle together: congratulations, Jaime: You’ve just been certified on the No. 3 Captains of Crush Gripper and your name has been added to the official roster!

IronMind would like to thank Steven Helmicki for serving as the referee on Jaime McEwen’s official attempt.
