i dont think its gripwise since i put my pinkies on the indent/smooth line that most bars have. it could be an eating problem though since i go to school. i wake up at 6 have some whole wheat toast at 7:10 with a glass of milk. then at school eat at 1130 which is an apple, some trailmix with no chocolate (peanuts, almonds, cranberries, cashews), and a nutragrain bar. i try to eat somewhat healthy. then on the drive to the gym (10 minutes) i eat a nutragrain or trail mix bar. so i mean is that enough carbs
