grip strength

[jacked391]

Just curious on what u guys do for grip strength. I like to do farmers walk, db crawls, static barbell holds, and partial deads from below knee with a hold at top. Kida got away from this but latley brought it back to help with gains.

I just never use lifting straps and my forearms6have developed nicely.

Some people have naturally big calves, I have big forearms and grip strength at least when it comes to static hold. It does hurt to squeeze these days (maybe mild carpal tunnel) but hold no.

I always suggest thick bar training for grip.

I think you have it covered now. Biggest thing for me was losing straps.

Grab a pull-up bar and hang from it as long as you can. This works the kinks out of your back as well.

And is see now they have the "elite" size, which look insanely huge, which I have not used

I have a pair I keep in my gym bag. I put them on the Hammer Strength machines. Its sounds weird but if you do that it takes pressure of your shoulder when it gets beaten up from benching.

NEVER use straps.
