Out in the real world weak hands do not relate to a strong person, a crushing grip is what people believe a strong person should possess. There are many people that can lift hundreds of pounds but their grip strength is not what it should be. If they included grip strength training in their routines, they would be able to add more poundage. Are weak hands the missing link in your strength. If you are not lifting the amount of weight you think you should, try strengthening your forearms and hands. If you are using wrist wraps or straps, stop using them. You might lift less weight without them but your strength will improve with the extra work your hands will do, then later you will lift more than you previously could. If you are a rock climber, grappler or any other athlete who needs to pull and grip, you should be strengthening your grip if it is not already part of your workout. Rock climbers who may be climbing for hours not only need the strength in their forearms and hands but also the endurance needed to hang onto what small surface they can grasp. The grappler needs to be able to grasp the opponents clothing or body parts or even to be able to free themselves from the opponents grasp. Having a strong grip will really help you to be able to control your opponent. Having the strength in your forearms and hands may also help you get out of a bad situation. Make grip training a part of your regular workout routine and you will be sure to benefit. Go to Grip Strength for more info on improving your grip strength.
