At the Ryan Lee Boot Camp, Senior RKC Kettlebell Instructor and grip junkie, David Whitley showed his passion for old school strength. The guy has hands and forearms that resemble bowling pins, not the kind of guy you wanna tangle with if you catch my drift. Does it hurt that he kills 100+ lb kettlebells on a regular basis? I assume it can only help! Watch David in action below. Now that you're motivated, go kill it with some heavy kettlebells and finish up with some beastly grip … [Read more...]

The winners received a Captains of Crush Hand Gripper. Pull ups are like squats for the upper body. They're amazing at developing strength and … [Read more...]
I Still Remember Him, 19 Years Ago
I was 13 years old, my Dad was getting the big set of stairs in front of our house rebuilt.

Americo's hands looked like big meat hooks, his forearms were massive … [Read more...]
