Wow, on my birthday, an old friend and a BEAST, Johnny Wasiscko stopped by the gym to say Happy B Day. I asked him what's new & he said he's been preparing for strongman comps and the Arnold Grip Contest....
It was the day before the Lost Secrets of Strength Seminar, so, I said, let's train and have a grip strength contest!!
This was FUN and we really got carried away breaking all the "rules" and doing everything that made NO sense at all! These are the best workouts!
Enjoy the Videos and post your comments or questions below!

Part 3
Part 4
Grip Strength is extremely fun and you can get creative with your equipment.
If you can find a welder, you can get custom made thick bars / pipes and dumbbells.
Comment below with your favorite grip strength exercises?
In Strength,

You don’t want to use chalk with the RT! Great video.
Yes, we’ll make Smitty and his boys go through a nauseating squat workout first, ha ha – we need every advantage over those beasts!
can’t wait!
no chalk on rolling thunder smitty? makes it too slippery?
I couldn’t see the video, the link said:’ We’re sorry, this video is no longer available.
Did you guys do some grip strength challenges with naked girls?
Now that’s a way to spend your birthday!
yeah man, chalk + plastic is no good.
No chalk~ that’s the real strong hands.
BTW, wat we always do here in China is grip 2 iron kettlebell in one hand. a judo athlete I trained has done this chalkless with 2 40kg kbs. his thumbs are real hooks.
Can’t have one strong hand – lol –
