Felt good but need to up weight by a k or 2 . Pinch Block not sure what happened here. Was doing some tidying up & moving stuff around in the gym whilst doing this. Not sure if the rest helped or not. Managed 2 singles at my PB weight. All in all a good sess with a couple PB’s . Off out plant shopping now & so am bound to pick up some goodies for The Zoo. -

Crushing strength is extremely neurological. So to some extent you probably need less mass to be strong with grippers than you need for most other exercises. Like for deadlift, you will not see a small man deadlift 500 kg. He will at least have very big legs. Hand strength is more dependant on the CNS. If you have good genetics for this you will be able to excel in this area of strength to a larger extent without having as much muscle mass. That doesn't mean you don't need to have any mass, it just means you don't need to have as much as in other areas of strength. When it comes to grippers it also makes a big difference if it's a wide set or narrow set and the hand size of course matters also in that case, that will determine whether it's a wide or narrow set etc. You will need more muscle to be strong with a wide set. -

You don't base a strength standard after the WR. Do I really need to explain why? I mean it's pretty easy to understand why you wouldn't do that. A WR is just as it says, a world record. It would be like saying it's bad to run 100 m in 10 seconds since Bolt was much faster. -

No there isn't many and that's the point. Also there's very few women who competes in sport. I base my opinions of what I have seen in competitions. Women who are indeed strong, like armwrestlers for example is usually around this level. It's not supposed to be easy. If it was they need to lower the weight for the men to around 80 kg I would say.
