Crushing Grip Strength With Captains of Crush
Grip Strength training is not just for people who want to deadlift over 600 lbs without straps or those who want to rip phone books in half. A strong grip helps you in nearly all of your everyday activities. Fitness is often portrayed as a fat burning and ab sculpting endeavor while its more practical benefits are often overlooked.
Lifting a 15-inch cast iron pan out of a 500 degree oven one-handed takes alot of hand and forearm strength. Grip training, if it isn't overtrained, can improve your hand health dramatically.
The Captains of Crush® from Ironmind are an excellent way to develop crushing hand strength.
Grip training doesn't need to be done everyday, the hands need time to recover just like the rest of your body. The most important thing is to not push too far too fast or you run the risk of injuring your hands and setting back the rest of your training while you recover.
The Captains of Crush come in 10 different strengths from the guide at 60 lbs to the number 4 which takes 365 lbs of force to close. (Don't worry or even think about closing the number 4 until you have been sleeping with the 3 for at least a year!)
With a retail price of $19.95 the Captains of Crush are a quality addition to any training regimine.
