Thanks Tim, appreciate the positive vibes...

Campusing three times a week is bad mkay!

Of course, what did you think I meant?

Given that my shoulders are held together with string and bolts and my elbows are about as bad as yours, you can imagine there's a fair bit of empathy there as well.

No, no dudes!! The latest training craze to hit the streets of Melbourne are the IronMind Captains of Crush grippers. Perfect for training at work. They come in a range of strengths (1 to 4). These things will give you a grip of heat treated, high carbon steel! And don't listen to any old geezers who tell you that you'll break yourself, pain is just weakness leaving the body!

These won't build strength but they are great stretches at the desk after climbing :

I concur with skip. Captains of Crush grippers have changed my life! Closing a #2 gripper was better than sex and all achieved whilst at work!
