PULL FOR PERFECTION<br />
A PRACTICAL APPLICATION AND INTRODUCTION OF UNCONVENTIONAL EqUIPMENT<br />
THAT WIll gIVE YoU AN IRoN gRIP<br />
NO MORE SLITHER ON THE PULL UP! GRIP RIGHT, GRIP EASY!<br />
UNCONVENTIONAL=FUNCTIONAL<br />
Do you do a lot of pulling in your training? To be truly strong; pulling is a must! Are you always using standard handles and<br />
bars for your pulling? If you are, you are missing out on a whole new world of results. Using methods that make your pulls<br />
more grip-dependent is very functional, for real world strength.<br />
UNCoNVENTIoNAl IMPlEMENTS AND ADjUSTMENTS foR gRIP DEPENDENT ExERCISES<br />
Most of the time when people want to make an exercise grip-dependent; the first thing that they do is make the<br />
implement thicker. You can use a thick bar, or those slip on, thick grip devices to make the diameter a true challenge. Up the<br />
intensity on Deadlifts, Rows, Pull/Chin-Ups or any other pulling exercise.<br />
In the above pictures I am using a device called Grip4orce (TM), which I ordered on Amazon.com. https://www.amazon.com/<br />
No plug intended, it’s just that these devices add to the difficulty well and you can rapidly improve grip!<br />
gRIP THICk!<br />
Then there are thick ropes for pull/chin-ups,<br />
rope climbing, recline rowing, etc. The ones I use<br />
for most things are 1.5 inches thickness, but<br />
occasionally I will use my 2-inch rope. Heck,<br />
you could even do the strongman thing and pull<br />
a car or heavy sled with a thick rope.<br />
