T+3D: IPPT

As you might have heard, it’s ICT time again, and today’s the third day. It’s IPPT day. For the first time ever, I went with the over-graft hand grip, and cleared the station. I’ve been using under-graft since forever, but always felt it was an uncertain struggle, so results were a bit inconsistent. Over-graft is supposed to achieve better results, but it’s difficult to get started. So there’s this great inertia to overcome to give over-graft a fair chance to show some results.

Well, early this year, I decided this will be the year I will start giving over-graft a try. For the last 3 or 4 months, I’ve been training on over-graft. It’s not as regular as I’d like, so it was slow. But finally, over-graft has worked out. I haven’t pulled under-graft in a while, but I’m quite satisfied that over-graft wins. If you’re thinking of “switching” the grip method, remember to give yourself some time. Different muscle groups are involved, so it isn’t something you can easily switch in a week or so.

IPPT today was almost unbearable with the kind of scorching sun we’re getting these days. The weather is just plain crazy. I’m just so happy that it’s over. Last year’s greatest ICT achievement would be the arcade game thingy. This over-graft business is definitely going to be something notable for this year, although still too early to say if it will be the greatest.
