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!
Gillingham then discusses "Grip Program
Considerations", including hand preparation, appropriate sets and
reps, injury prevention, and rehabilitation. In the final segment,
"Application to Sport", Gillingham offers sample workouts and a
breakdown of appropriate exercises for six different types of
sports: Contact sports, grappling sports, athletes that play with a
racket or stick, court sports, strongman, and power
lifting/weightlifting athletes. Enhancing grip strength is a great
way to give your athletes a competitive edge!
