with Wade Gillingham,
Professional Strongman and Grip Master

Gillingham demonstrates 30 exercises that will help to increase grip strength and improve sports performance for athletes at any level in any sport! Destroying the common myth that grip strength is natural, Gillingham breaks down lower arm strength into seven categories including:

• Warm up and Dexterity - Aids injury prevention and hand control.
• Gym Lifts - Different bar grips to use in the gym.
• Crushing Grip - Universal for all sports - focusing on the hands and fingers in a dynamic range of motion.
• Supporting Grip - Focuses on forearm development.
• Finger Strength - Focuses on the smaller muscles and tendons of the fingers.
• Pinch Grip - Essential for combative sports that require gripping without the benefit of a "handle".
• Wrist Strength - Critical for every sport!
