Grip Strength

As many of you know who read this blog, I was having problems with my grip. It gave out on me in my 13th rep of deadlifting at my last show. Well I have been working on it and these are the exercises I have found to be the most useful. First off is the actual deadlift it is phenomenal for building a good grip. Hex holds and Captains of Crush are also very valuable. High rep shrugs and DB rows not only kill your grip but they also fry your back and traps. Here is a video of me doing some plate pinches with the stone trainer. 115lbs for 5 sets of time.


Remember to have the smooth side facing out on both sides.
