Perhaps above all, I managed to close the #1 gripper today in my right hand. My positioning was wrong; the bar wasn't fitted deep enough into my palm. I only did it once, but I don't think buying the trainer is necessary. That single rep wasn't difficult at all, but the second attempt met with failure. It's a very uneven experience.
