No that sounds about right, thats the reason why I switched to hanging and occasionally do manuals which might not be the most efficient strategy. Probably a good manual foundation supplemented with hanging is a better gameplan but I don't think I can keep up with that right now. If you keep that up you will see great results soon, don't forget to wrap after your stretching!

I know it doesn't take much to grip bro its the pulling action not the gripping action. Don't use your forearms to pull unless you want to work them out. Use leverage. When you pull to the left and right you can kinda grip your wrist with your thigh and push with your thigh towards the wrist to get the extra stretch and not use so much forearm.You need to have a grip in order to pull. Forearms mainly utilize gripping unless you're doing wrist curls, you pull mainly with your back, traps, lats, biceps. Without a strong stable grip, you're not giong to pull worth anything,kyomoto;708702 said:

Theres definitely grip strength involved, you must have developed alot of it over time.
Its like pull ups, if you cant even grip hard enough to hang it doesn't matter how strong your back and biceps are you wont be able to do one rep.
