[English] MANUS Enterprises used the term “company rating” because a lot of customers have been confused by RGC results. The company rating is (close to) what average people actually feel in their hands when they attempt to close the grippers. In general, the company ratings are similar (or 10 – 20% harder) to the calibration results when the 1″ strap is placed on the middle of the handle (not at the end).

[English] According to XSportNews.com:

On Wednesday, August 22, 2012 Ioan Cristian Puscasu a.k.a. “The Bear” will attempt to close the No. 4 Captains of Crush® Gripper under certification rules, on romanian TV sports channel – sport.ro.

In 2010, Ioan “The Bear” Puscasu closed very easily CoC No. 3.5, without even doing a warming up before. He closed the gripper and he kept it closed almost 10 seconds. Next he attempted to close CoC No.4 but he missed it by a very small gap, due to the muscle fatigue gained from closing the CoC No. 3.5.

It is very important to mention that all the men from Who’s Who No. 4 Captains of Crush® Grippers list were certified before 2005 year. In 2005 were introduced the new GR8™ Springs, but more important is that the Rules for Closing were drastically changed, the major difference being the new credit/ATM card rule.

If Ioan “The Bear” Puscasu succeeds in officially closing the No. 4 Captains of Crush® Gripper, he would be the first man to do it on the new Rules for Closing and with the new GR8™ Springs.

We wish him good luck (we know he did it before, but not officially) !

[English] According to Dmitiriy Lusin on YouTube, “I think that if you have to train for improvement in Apollon Axle or Rolling Thunder then Manus grips would be better, but if you want to train full body then TGrips could be more convenient (as they are locking on the bar tighter than Manus grips). Grooves on TGrips are not making lift weights lighter (though it still could be better if they weren’t there), because TGrips have bigger diameter than Manus grips. Big thanks to Alexey Pritula for shooting this video and to Ivan Beritashvili for giving his Manus grips!”
