You must turn the rice to sand by doing the exercises!
kinda remind you of those old shaolin movies doesn't it?
The ultimate goal 😭😭😂😂😂😂
Who are you
Dust....
Which idiot is possibly downvoting free advice of this quality?
Thank you Catalyst for all you do and put out
It's probably a 🐁 mouse that can't get in that rice bucket!🤦♂️🤦♀️🙈🙄
Somebody must’ve used sand, gotten in their eye, and clicked the dislike button by mistake
Short, to the point, informative.
Killing it man, thank you so much.
as i love it
Started this today. Done all my measurements and I'm just aiming to do one or two follow along videos on youtube. Aiming for every day as I imagine my forearms should heal up quickly. Only done measurements on the upper forearm at 29cm. If i can get about 1cm i'll be over the moon!! I might report back every week or so depending how well this comment does. All the best guys
Update plz
Hows it going brother
@@DR-mq1le Hi mate yeah still going on this, not doing it every day just because I feel like I don’t want it to affect my lifts at the gym. Not getting particularly sore however, so maybe I can step up to once a day. Not seen any growth as of now so I’ll have to keep at it!! Will definitely report back
@@AP-98 keep at it bro! I agree with you, other lifts might get compromised from the forearm fatigue. I feel its best to do these 2-3 times a week with good intensity like every other muscle group .
@@DR-mq1le yeah i'll give it atleast another month or so, but if it does get to a point where i'm seeing no changes i'll probably stop and just live with the forearms i've been given🤣🤣
this is the one thing every weightlifter (or maybe even lifter) should get to know. this works like magic and is the most ancient ungabunga rehab tech I have ever heard of! may everyone's wrist pain cease and fortune of smashing PRs again shall smile upon you!
Worked in the Costco deli. Nothing compares to the hand pump you get from squeezing a 20lb blob of cooked ground beef. Never thought I could feel a muscle burn in my fingers. Found this looking for something similar. Rice sounds cleaner for a home gym.
There are putties made for hand strength too - popular with climbers and guitar players. Downside is you don't get the extension (you can poke fingers through and pull apart, but that's a pain in the ass and not the same) and can't do the wrist-specific work. The bucket is the best solution I've found.
Lmao cooked ground beef
@@CatalystAthletics look into the "power web" for strengthening hands and wrists. As a massage therapist of 27 years it's about the best that I've found for strengthening the smaller muscles for hands/wrists and using it to stretch them out is awesome. For pinch and crush grip it's OK and other techniques are definitely superior such as wrist curls/extensions, farmers walks, hand grippers... Just make sure that if you're strong get a heavier duty version. Most of the power webs are intended for poorly conditioned elderly who have arthritis or an injury.
This workout will definitely wake you up *** Must try** My knot in my wrist is slowly going down and getting soft thank you 😊
Gonna do this with my feet too to rehab ankle sprains...
Legit professional video. I'm surprised it has such low views. Great stuff!
Great tips man. Been doing rice bucket training for almost a month for rehab and strength. So far my right arm, wrist to elbow, are feeling much better. Had a little bit of tennis elbow for many years. This is the one thing that has corrected it. My arm feels great. Grip strength has improved overall for both hands.
I am trying to recover from both tennis elbow and golfers elbow in the same arm. I have had it for a little over 3 months. Its getting better but very slowly. I have been thinking about doing the rice bucket to try to rehab it but am afraid i might make it worse. At what point did you start doing this? Exactly what intensity and how often did you do this to cure yours?
@@kwacz For me man, I started it back in May. I did it every day for a month. Just 10 to 15 minutes. I wanted to see what would happen. You can do this 3 times a week on top of your normal exercise routine. You don't have to do it like I did every day for a month. 3 times a week is plenty 👍
@@GoldenEraZen okay thank you I will definitely give it a shot. I will start off very easy at first and see how it goes since my doctor currently does not have me doing anything other than resting it which I have been doing for going on the 4th month now so I think it's time that I should probably start trying to do something in the form of rehabilitation. I'll give this a shot and see what happens.
@@kwacz Hey great. I think it's safe to say you can try something. It's been 4 months. Best of luck to you. Hope you can rehab and recover soon.
Sweet!
I really love this and it is absolutely important to strengthen your hands and wrists as that is what you use most in almost anything you perform whether it’d be exercise or work.
Hand strength and durability is vitally important to maintain and strengthen
Another amazing video. I love the simplicity and efficiency of all of your coaching and advice (and more generally your approach to the sport). Keep up the great work!
Very nice! It’s rare that I subscribe from just one vid… this is just the advice I needed👍
❤️ Catalyst Athletics it has every thing a athlete need.
Years ago I injured my wrist when I used to do a lot of snow shoveling coupled with a powerlifting routine.
The pain would go away for months but then randomly come back (felt like something in my wrist moved out of position) and I wouldn't be able to move my wrist for full ROM for days.
When I incorporated this in my routine, pain never came back. Wrist pain free for 1 year now.
It's almost as if sets all my wrist muscles in the correct spot and regularly doing it ensures they stay put.
Worked for me!
That's awesome
Hello
I had back surgery after speed shoveling 3 ft of snow like a strongman. Sciatica. Had one of best in world take out disc and all thats left of the pain is like a ghost in the nerves etc. I stretch still & the pain is like 4%... hamstring stretches over the right knee and cross & lift up leg while engaging & stretching that (in my case) left leg. Cheers
@@CatalystAthletics I shared v4 that I injured my back speed shoveling snow. Had one of the best surgeons remove a disc. Now pain there is like 4% instead of daily sciatica pinching & agony. I used 2 get out of car and forced2 stretch hamstring. Surgery was e-z TIL I WOKE UP! We're talking level 10 pain. 5 days of percoccet and I took myself off. Hated the loopy feeling. God blessed me2 handle pain on my own. Cheers
How often did you do it
Like a 5 minute routine at the end of every workout.
I might try my feet in a big bucket of this too
Ive used both rice and sand and i find sand more challenging but with rice the resistance feels more consistent throughout the whole range of motion, so i give the edge to the rice version tbh
Exactly what I needed
3. You can eat the rice after your workout.
i use a bag of concrete sand, it's really effective for stronger skin
Thank you

@@tms0815gExactly.
Not really... I don't see it, lol 😆
I lift and I'm a Chef. Thanks for the tip.
I take it you're somewhat of a minimalist and you might wear gloves to condition in the rice and cycle the rice out as you cook and replace at the same time.
Parabéns por inserir métodos assim no treinamento! Usamos isso n arte marcial, excelente para fortalecer os punhos!
This a really creative, sensible idea
Kinda unrelated but for those interested this would probably be something good to point at during dry fire training as an extra precaution. Just a thought.
How would this help with dry firing?
Great succinct explanation subbed
30 pounds of rice seems a bit excessive, even for gigantor hands 😝
Definitely will give this a go. Nice one 👍
Can this be used for seniors to work on proving their strength and mobility with possibly arthritis or just weakness?
Definitely worth a try, I would ease into it very gradually to make sure you're not aggravating the arthritis more than helping it.
My PT used beans. I have horse oats i was using because i have them already but you have to wash your hands after
nice
My dude over here looks like he scares flour into kneading itself into pizzas
Rice also helps dry hands and if you play baseball or golf, you’ll have less or no blisters
Awesome thank you
I bought a bucket and rice and honestly I can do these excersise for 30 minutes per hand before really feeling fatigue. If you do bjj or rock climbing you need sand.
glad im asian we have a lot of rice
Not only does it look fun but i would have the perfect excuse to keep a bucket of sand :)
I wonder could you make your hands bigger from doin that.
Maybe if you were punching it like in iron fist/bone/body training. Check out the way Jiang Yu Shan conditions his hands and wrists. He has his own channel and also material through Vahva Fitness.
It will increase the muscle size in your hands.
The iron fist technique is used to kill nerves, microfracture bone and to callus the skin make it tough.
I had to do that when I was growing up. Along with shin kicking bamboo wrapped in rope and heavy duty truck tires. You can feel the bone chips floating under the skin on my shins. 😂😂😂
Get the 10 min rice bucket workout by fearless tofu. Do it every day as many times until your arm falls off.
Shia LaBeouf I ❤ you so much

I’ve seen something like this in Kongfu movies!
I’d be interested to know has anybody using this method regularly encountered any skin-related health issues down the road? I ask because rice is known to contain arsenic, which in turn is a known skin carcinogen.
Never heard of anyone having a problem
.
I’m curious, I’m a painter/artist but I also want to strengthen my hands and try this out. I know that some carpenters damage their nerves from the shock they endure swinging hammers in their career. Is their a consequence training with sand like this? Will I lose my dexterity in exchange for tougher hands, or will this actually improve my dexterity?
I don't see it improving dexterity, but as long as you continue with your art and frequent use of your hands/fingers in varying motions and full range, I can't imagine it reducing it either. There is nothing damaging about this - what you're talking about is simply overuse injuries, which occur with any repetitive motion over a longer period of time, especially if not supported through exercise/recovery protocols. If anything, doing some hand/wrist training would help you avoid overuse issues from painting.
@@CatalystAthletics awesome thank you for the advice
@@CatalystAthletics thanks for the thorough reply. I have injured my wrist from drawing, overusing it and currently trying to recover from it. I will make this ricebucket myself to help my wrist out. Do you have any other tips on exercises or recovery which can help strengthening/maintain the wrist?
@@Karrdeh ruclips.net/video/Wvv60R691ks/видео.html
@@CatalystAthletics Thanks for the link!
What exactly is it good for? "Maintain hand and wrist health" - how?
how do you manage to keep the rice clean from bugs or little butterflies?
thank you for the advice.
Bucket with a lid... right at the beginning of the video - ruclips.net/video/vvximWI1-JM/видео.html
@@CatalystAthletics OK, just using a lid must do the job.
thank you
Better to use really fine soft sand
nice I can always feed my chicken with this rice so no problem.
Does dooing this strenghten the skin of your hand?
Anything you do with your hands will help toughen up the skin, but rice won't do a lot since it's pretty smooth. Sand would do more, but you're going to get a lot more out of manual labor type efforts, e.g. lifting, carrying, gripping a variety of objects/tools.
Another way to not buy as much rice is to put some filler like packing peanuts in a trash bag at the bottom of the bucket and fill the top half in rice
What type of rice is least abrasive, brown, jasmine, or basmati?
If that's a serious question... just get the cheapest white rice available. It's fine.
Nice video, i am thinking of making a rice bucket for myself, how long did the rice last exposed to air like that?
Don't leave it exposed to the air - get a bucket with a lid like suggest.
@@CatalystAthletics sure, but even with the lid, doesn't it get moldy at some point? There is still air inside
@@valeriolucentini5436 If it stays dry, it should be fine for years, especially since you're not eating it. And if it somehow gets bad... it's cheap to replace. If you're worried about it, just use sand.
@@CatalystAthletics thanks a lot!
@@valeriolucentini5436 also you can buy some desiccant packets to keep it dry.
what about 4,5mm steel balls ? would it work instead of rice ?
Probably but also might move a bit too easily - you'd probably need more depth than rice for equivalent resistance. But my main concern would just be cost unless you happen to have a bucket full already.
@@CatalystAthletics thanks for answering. yes, steelballs 4,5mm are expensive. 50.000 balls 60€. in germany. i saw a video of rian garcia, doing this with gravel in the bucket. so i thought the next step would be steelballs 😂🤷🏻♂️
Doesn't the rice go bad/filled with pests?
Not if you take the advice I give at the beginning and use a lid.
I always get tennis elbow fron this? Doing 1 day pause between,
Can u help me what i make wrong?
Hi, how do you keep the rice clean?
Tight fitting lid for the bucket and don't have dirty hands when you use it.
Can I do this with wheat?
osent rice rot ?
In the snatch what exercises can I do to stop my shoulders being to far over the bar in the 2nd pull?
Several, depending on why it's happening, but here are two -

weak hands,

wimp
can i eat the rice after?
Gross
I fell off my bike 3 months ago and my hands hurt every single day. I never went to the doctor because I dont have insurance. 1 thumb is permanently swollen now. Hopefully this will help
did it help?
Will this work for a fractured wrist. It never healed properly and it's been 8 months now.
Definitely a question for a medical professional
Is this just for wrist and hand or does this also increase forearm muscles?
All the muscles that move the hand and wrist are in the forearms, so yes it will be working them - whether or not it actually causes measurable growth is a question of how much/hard you're doing it and your genetic predisposition.
This helps tennis elbow from benching?
It may
Like in boxing gyms
Might this be good for tennis elbow (lateral epicondylitis)?
Probably smooth high repetition rope handle triceps extension will be better solution + forearms flexion/extension /rotation exercises ,give it a try
How many months for going to sand?
Not sure what you're asking.
Meh just go straight to sand like me no need for rice
PLUS YOU CAN EAT THE RICEEEEE
hey man thats food you are playing with! kidding aside
what do you think of finger extensor tools like those webs with holes for the fingers and you try to spread your hand, will this be similar to the rice or different?
Michael Lee The bands etc for finger extension are decent but rice allows 3 dimensional resistance and more adjustable resistance, so I much prefer it.
Michael Lee - in addition to this excellent video, I would also recommend the various strengths of therapy putty. It’s very inexpensive, can be taken anywhere and used for a variety of movements. After two serious occupational hand and wrist injuries, I have found it very helpful. Also, the webs don’t last - as you get stronger, you’ll start to tear them.
@@olyrhys8724 thanks man i never heard of this
Happy to help - I hope you find it as useful and effective as I have 👍
Do you continue with rice when maggots and moths appear?
No... that's why I say explicitly in the beginning of the video to use a bucket with a lid to seal out bugs, rodents, etc.
Can u punch the rice for knuckle conditioning too?
If you want
Does it have to be in a bucket ? Or can you just use the bad the rice comes in ?
You can use the bag... but it will rip and spill eventually (quickly), and it's not re-sealable, so it's a great way to invite rodents. Just get a bucket with a lid.
byag how to ingridians
How are your hands? Have you had weevil problems?
No weevils or anything else. That's why you need a lid.
Its good to rotate with a hand gripper to?
Grippers are one of many good tools/exercises
You could heat up the rice hey..
Can I use soil?
I think it will compact too much. You need something that will remain "fluid" no matter how much it's moved and compressed.
Can this make hands thicker too?
Likely but you need to do a lot more than just this... frequent, high-volume manual labor, for example.
@@CatalystAthletics thank you very much for taking the time to give me a helpful reply.
How much will this rice cost?
www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-1-d&q=30+lb+bag+of+rice
yeah, but do u cook the rice?
no...
@@CatalystAthletics ;)
Will this give me BIG MEATY PAWS?
Look at the hand conditioning of Jiang Yu Shan.
Can i use this here method for me leggies?
Please post video of this.
what if you are broke
Just found out this video and this technique about forearms growth,
tell me, how is rice and bucket better for forearms size and growth compared to a pair of hand grips captain crunch for example, there are some that are 200lb to close.
This is not intended to create size
I just bought myself the bucket what kind of rice would work best is there a certain type?
Whatever the cheapest bulk rice you can find is. Something like this - www.webstaurantstore.com/riceland-white-long-grain-rice-50-lb/112WHTLG50.html
wax on, baby, woohooo!!
How does the rice strengthen your hands and wrists?
It's creating resistance to the movement... same way any resistance training works, but this works in every direction and can include all planes/motions/rotation/gripping/flexion/extension, etc.
Sorcery
deep fist that rice!
How long does it takes for the callesus to develop?
Not long if you're holding onto barbells every day. Maybe a couple weeks.
Can I use dirt
It won't work well.
Kung Fu
kids in africa could've eaten this rice

@@CatalystAthletics haha im just reading this reply good one!
I recommend!
You better remove this video otherwise we will have lot of people with strong wrists😂
all should try atleast once in their lifetime this,make contact with mario at shen martial arts in america,ask mario to make you a bottle of brian grays dit da jow,it cant go on open wounds,put 2 caps in the palm of your hand and gently spread it ovee hands and wrist,in a minute it wil soak through the skin the chi channels open wide,whata feeling,all must feel it just once,it makes your hands like stone
Thank you. I shall look into this.
@@mikuspalmis remember now brian grays dit da jow is not for internal use,you cant use it on broken skin and keep it away from the mouth and eyes,when it comes to keep it in optimum health always keep it ina cool dark cupboard,it gets stronger with age ,and make sure the lid is on tight,when it comes make sure your hands are nice and clean and dry,put 2 capfuls in the palm of your hand now gently spread it over all of your hands and wrist,you donot have to rub it in just spread it about for a few seconds then allow it to soak in ,it takes about 2 minutes to soak all in,donot wash your hands for 20 minutes ,you have to make sure all the jow has gone through the skin before you wash your hands ,the dit da jow can carry water through the skin,you donot want that ,this dit da jow is the best in the world,it opens the chi channels,it fixes tendons ,bones and muscle injuries,its capacity to reduce pain,swelling and inflammation is astonishing,it can reverse carpel tunnel syndrome in approx 2 minutes,when it is used to heal injuries,it does 2 things it will go very cold or very hot if it does either of these it is healing the injury,i have seen this stuff revers injuries that have been inplace for years in approx 2 minutes,trapped nerves can be released in approx 2 minutes,it can bea bit ofa shick when an old injury starts to heal fast,i think it can be traumatic,so i tell them,theresa good chance this may heal you in minutes,the maximum you can use is 4 capfuls on an injury,anymore will be wasting it,i was on you tube channel looking at wrist injuries,i senta message to an american chinese weight lifter ,2 years wrist injury,he messaged me when brian grays came and i told him what to do,it healed his wrist in approx 2 mins ,so he done 50 push ups to test it,i donot recommend that but he was fine,all fixed,magnificent mario is just that magnificent mario .shen martial arts
@@Beekind799 I greatly appreciate all the information you included. I'm saving all of it for future reference. Thank you again. 🙏🏼
@@mikuspalmis knowledge is power,i leave no stone unturned when i pass on very very important info,you are most welcome
Pretty much iron claw training

Best thing about this is if your phone breaks and you put it in the rice bucket, it is fixed the following morning.
I really haven't seen a better source for oly lifting on RUclips than this channel and it's ahead of almost everyone else by miles. Torokhtiy isn't far off.
I dunno if this is worth a video, but wrist pain during movements like the clean. I get it in one wrist at lighter weight but when I go heavy, I don't notice any discomfort. Barely anyone has talked about it but one video did say it could have to do with muscles higher in the arm.
Pea gravel also works very well bc it has some weight and density to it but flows like the rice , isnt as messy as sand, and will never get moldy
Ahhh... 🤔 😉👌🏼
How many lbs of pea gravel in a 5 gallon bucket? 🙏🏻
Rice bucket exercises helped my wrist and thumb majorly. Can’t remember the technical word but had tendon problems that affect my thumb and wrist. Couldn’t even pick something up. Doing these got rid of the pain and now can fully function using my hand.
