    I got my first hand grippers when I was about 12-13, and now I´m 17. After about 2 months, my grip was VERY strong, like squeezing another persons hand. But I´ve noticed that if I use it too often, like 4 days a week, my forearm really hurts, so I´m only doing this 2 days a week plus my arm workout that includes forearm exercise in the gym and ALOT of stretching of the forearm, thank you for your time!

      @crimsontide1980 Год назад +1

      Damn, what weight resistance are you using? I prefer to use the most difficult gripper that I possibly can close and I do sets of about 25, and I do sets of 25 with each hand about 10 sets per day spread out throughout the day

    I keep my grips in my car , so that while I'm driving I can work on my grip. I've noticed a huge difference in my hand strength especially my weak points ! How do I know this ?....as I did shrug exercises before I couldn't hold the weight for to long because the pinky side of my hand started to to fatigue and and my hand would start to open up but ever since I started doing these grip exercises I noticed more reps in before I feel fatigue in my hands with heavy ass weight.I didn't just notice a difference in hand strength with shrugs i noticed it with curls,deadlifts,uprightrows basically every exercise I do now .these grips work.

  • @JfromUk92
    @JfromUk92 13 лет назад

    @leemhayward Thanks for replying to my question, I got a pair of these 3 days ago and used them quite a lot, I feel because I have small hands I may need a small set of grippers, but I have only ever seen one size, their wooden handled, but they will be very durable. I'll continue doing them daily. Thanks again.

  • @sevakkarapetian
    @sevakkarapetian 13 лет назад

    @BeastBenchers Most have to make some. Complete 20-25 repetitions of a gripper, so that they can close a gripper on the next strength. When you can do 10-12 repetitions whole, it is recommended to switch power, so you can start to train on a harder gripper.

  • @esalackstrom9232
    @esalackstrom9232 9 лет назад +1

    I've noticed that my palm is leaning backwards when gripping. if trying to hold my palm straight from my wrist up, it feels doing wonders to my grip. Get's way more harder but after training feels so much better.
    I can close CoC 1 fully for reps when allowing my palm to move, but seem to struggle a bit with CoC T with wrist held straight. Can get a few good reps (fully closed, with the clashing sound) and then my hand is done :D But feels i've really worked my grip and my wrists.

  • @daytonadudenheimer

    You didn't mention at what speed we should do the grip reps? Like do them rapidly? Or slowly press it and then release it???? Hold it pressed down for a while before releasing?

  • @UklaTheMokk
    @UklaTheMokk 13 лет назад +2

    How often should I work with my grippers? I'm just beginning and can close the 100lb easily 15 times, but 150lb I'll need assistance after 10 or so, and can barely close the 200lb.
    Is every other day, 3x per week good enough? I don't want to overkill and I understand there's more than just using grippers to getting great crushing strength. Thanks!

    I have a question though. While we do the grip exercises, does the position of the forearm matter? I mean, does it make any difference if the forearm is at 90 deg to the upper arm, or say at 180 deg?

    How long does it usually take for most guys to get the 350lb gripper? I can get the 250 on 3 times, 300 about half way, and can barely move the 350lb one. I'm hoping to get it in 2-3 months. I intend to work on pyramid sets from 100-250 with each hand to work myself up.

    I can squeeze the 100s pretty easily. Can I do high reps with them, and low reps / long holding with the 200s? My goal is to also build bigger hands, not just strength. I recently built a wrist roller myself, which gives me a great pump in my forearms.

    To anyone here..... Which way builds hand grip strength the best - reps or squeezing and holding? Or is it best to mix it up. Just staring out with hand grippers (100 lbs) and not sure of the best way to improve my grip strength the fastest. Thanks!

    • @TotalFitnessBodybuilding
      @TotalFitnessBodybuilding  Год назад +1

      Mixing it up will be the best, but one thing that I've found better than anything is max effort single rep sets of heavy grippers. Most people train their grip with sub maximal effort for long duration (i.e. holding weights, carrying things, etc.) But single rep max effort grip work provides a unique level of muscle stimulation.

    • @hikgerguy1234
      @hikgerguy1234 Год назад

      @@TotalFitnessBodybuilding Thanks for that info. So are you saying if I'm using 100 lb. (which I can almost close), I should maybe grab a 200lb and close it as much as I can? And should I hold that as long as possible?

(I can only do one rep, and not hold it very long). Is this normal, or have I probably been training incorrectly? How many reps should I be doing on a gripper if I have mastered it? Thanks!

      100lbs 5 reps
      150lbs 10 reps
      work sets

    im looking to develop muscle tone in my arms are grippers good for that?
    also it seems grippers heavily work the flexors than extensors do i need to do seperate extension exercises for extensors to keep up?

    • @Gregobars
      @Gregobars 5 лет назад

      It doesn't work your whole arm, it just tones your forearms. You do not need separate extension exercises to keep up, because the forearm flexes and extends in any exercise and doesn't needed to be isolated separately. Just because it may heavily work the flexors does not mean muscle growth works that way.
