	I believe it's a good training tool for climbers and finger strength, but there are three levels, and the numbers seem to be incorrect because the highest level indicates 100 pounds, which I think is elite. I'm convinced of this based on my world championship results and my training results, which aren't elite, so it's not a toy. I can't close it. After thinking about it, I believe you can only do eccentric maxes no more than 10 times.

	Advantages of the reverse curl: force transfer, injury prevention, and sports applications<br />
	This movement improves wrist strength, elbow stability, and grip strength—crucial elements in deadlifts, pull-ups, and many contact sports.<br />
	Combat sports: wrist stabilization during strikes and grabs.<br />
	Sport/Movement Expected Gain Measurement<br />
	Deadlift Fewer grip failures % of repetitions completed<br />
	Pull-ups Better set completion.<br />
	Prevention and rehabilitation: The pronated grip engages the outer tendons of the elbow differently. In a progressive program, this allows for strengthening the area without overloading the biceps. Physical therapists often use it to rebalance muscle tension after medial tendinopathy.<br />
	Progressive strengthening (light loads, high repetitions) for moderate tendinopathies. Unilateral work to correct asymmetries and prevent compensation. Combination with wrist mobility exercises to maintain joint health.<br />
	Phase Protocol Indicator<br />
	Rehabilitation. Increased load without pain<br />
	Key phrase: the reverse curl is a low time investment for a big return in strength and functional transfer.

	Plate-specific training for this curl:
</p>

<p>
	You can forget about using magnets on the weight.
</p>

<p>
	2. Put a very stiff string around the plate and add a 5-pound weight.<br />
	3. You must master the 25-pound weight, and the string increases leverage.
</p>

<p>
	4. Make jumps of 2.5 lbs to a maximum of 10 lbs, as the goal is to do fewer than 6 repetitions.<br />
	5. Go gradually if you want to one day use a 35-pound plate, and above all, the added weight must never come undone, so tighten the knot several times to prevent it from falling. The string must be very strong.
</p>

<p>
	6. Finally, proceed progressively with repetitions.<br />
	7. If the repetitions are numerous enough and you notice progress in strength, increase the weight.

	If you want to bend steel, do push-ups, and improve and strengthen your thumb and forefinger in a very difficult pinch position, I saw a video about it a long time ago. Take a 2x4 board, 6 to 7 inches wide for the grip, and 1 3/4 to 2 inches thick. It's like a rise in arm wrestling. Take a solid or high-quality wooden board between 44 and 60 inches long and 60 inches wide. The weight should be 8.5 to 20 pounds. Cut the board to your strength and add a nail to the end of a very long board, adding 2.5 pounds. This exercise is for both hands and is extremely difficult for the wrist, forearm, and forearm. The pressure on the wrist is enormous in inch-pounds. The grip must be effective, stable, comfortable, and a good width. Good progress towards developing strong wrists and extremely well-developed radial strength.

	Why does people genetic ceiling is different? Some at beginner, some at intermediate, some at advanced, some at elite, some at freak? 
</p>

<p>
	To answer that, we should analyze why they plateau and stop progressing. Let's look at First possibility. It is because undertraining. They are doing less or the same than their maintenance threshold. That mean they only maintain or regress. Then that mean they don't really hit their genetic potential. Their genetic potential is most likely far higher than that.
</p>

<p>
	By process of elimination, then the one that determine genetic ceiling is the second cause of plateau, overtraining. If they overtraining, they get plateau. If they get plateau, they already reached their genetic ceiling.
</p>

<p>
	For progress to happen, other than the work should be above your maintenance strength threshold, it also have to be not too much for your recovery speed.
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	So, The strength ceiling is defined by the point where recovery is no longer fast enough to adapt to the work being done.
</p>

<p>
	In conclusion, the higher your recovery speed is, the higher your strength ceiling is because as weight gets heavier, the more difficult it is to recover. The higher your recovery is, the higher you will plateau. The opposite is also true. The lower your recovery speed is, the lower your strength ceiling is, because as weight gets heavier, the more difficult it would be to recover.
</p>

<p>
	Recovery speed determines biological strength ceiling.

	Injury prevention due to strain and pain.
</p>

<p>
	1- I put cold water in the sink and ENOUGH ice in the cold water. I alternate between one or two forearms.
</p>

<p>
	2- I also use a thermal shock to regenerate micro-tears, as there is a resting period in this area. I am careful with my hands, no more than 10 minutes to avoid second- or third-degree burns, because you need to put hot water on your hands afterward.
</p>

<p>
	3. Good for intense myalgia, we reduce the swelling in the painful area, repeating until it's okay. This can prevent tennis elbow or any other injury during an intense and excessive week of overtraining.
</p>

<p>
	4- Method used for vasodilation—oxygen supply to injured tendons. Used and recommended by the Russians, Nordic countries, very strong men, and men in the North. REPAIR AND RELIEF OF SURROUNDING AND LIGAMENTOUS TISSUES.
</p>

<p>
	5. Promotes recovery and prevents collateral damage.

	I ordered my first saxon and axle (still hastn arrived) and i was thinking how i want to train them.
</p>

<p>
	Im also new to deadlifting currently doing it strapped to give my hands a break. Im working posterior chain not grip. I also strap all my pulling excersices on my bodybuilding days to save my grip
</p>

<p>
	Axle and saxon should be submax of your regular deadlifts.
</p>

<p>
	So why not do rack pulls for saxon and axle for grip days and strapped deadlifts for your deadlift work? This way you save your cns from unnecessary floor pulling.
</p>

<p>
	Then 8-12 weeks before a competition with saxon and/or axle in the line up. You drop deadlifts out your programming and add floor pulls on saxon/axle instead of rack pulls
</p>

<p>
	 
</p>

<p>
	Curious what you guys think?

	Sorry if this isnt the best place to post this. I can't really find any other decent place to post this but.
</p>

<p dir="ltr">
	<b><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">To give a clear idea of the type of athleticism and strength I’m trying to achieve, I’d say something similar to an NFL running back like Christian McCaffrey. For some insight about me, I’m a 20-year-old male in college, and I just want to see what I’m truly capable of athletically and strength-wise. I can bench 240 and squat around 330. Those are decent numbers, but I honestly don’t really care how much weight I can lift if I can’t move explosively or fast. I just think it’s cooler to be fast and strong.</span></b>
</p>

<p dir="ltr">
	<b><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">However, as I’ve gained weight and trained more like a bodybuilder, I’ve definitely slowed down slightly on the track and feel less bouncy and agile overall. I’ve also kind of plateaued over the past year and haven’t really made progress in either strength or athletic performance. I think it’s mainly because I haven’t had a strict training structure. I’ve done some research, but I honestly can’t find a good way to structure my training or figure out how to combine strength work with speed and jump training.</span></b>
</p>

<p dir="ltr">
	<b><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">For example, should I focus on strength for a couple of months and then move into speed training for a couple of months, cycling back and forth? Or should I be training both strength and speed within the same week consistently?</span></b>
</p>

<p dir="ltr">
	<b><span style="background-color:transparent;color:#000000;font-size:11pt;vertical-align:baseline;">Also, what would the diet look like and what essential nutrients/vitamins would I need for this? I am around 168 5'8 Maybe 20-25 percent body fat( complete somewhat educated guess) . Like should I try to cut down to 150 and start speed training at this weight then slowly try to add muscle. Anyways sorry if this is a lot just would really like help setting up some sort of structure so I could have a clear goal. Thank you to anyone who responds! :)</span></b>

	Since I have quiet big hands, I find that doing grip things is much easier for me than many people I met with smaller hands who have been doing it for much much longer than me and haven’t reached my level lifts such as the inch dumbbell.

	The Cliffhanger Finger Tip Grip Tester is a versatile and robust training tool designed to significantly increase finger strength, tendon resistance, and grip endurance. It allows for targeted and isolated fingertip lifting or hanging exercises, enabling users to measure their maximum load capacity and improve their grip for climbing or lifting.
</p>

<p>
	Key Benefits:<br />
	Targets fingertips and tendons to develop the strength needed for pinch grips or small edge holds, often improving climbers' performance.<br />
	Training Versatility: Can be attached to load bolts, cables, or pull-up bars, allowing for a variety of exercises such as weighted hangs, one-arm hangs, or static holds.<br />
	Maximum Load Testing<br />
	Injury Prevention and Rehabilitation: Helps develop, strengthen, and rehabilitate finger tendons and ligaments to reduce the risk of injury. Constant training with this tool forces the central nervous system to adapt, which can lead to faster strength gains and development.

</p>

<p>
	I read that it has been around for quite some time.  I would be using it only for my legs and abs, because I can't train heavy upper body due to scar tissue and nerve problems.  I like it's minimal yet intense approach, but I also do not want to waste my time either.  If it can't provide me results, it is worthless to me.  
</p>

<p>
	For clarity my 6 month goals are:
</p>

<p>
	• Increase 6 rep Hack Squat set from 270 lbs to 360 lbs (adding a plate to each side from where I am currently at)
</p>

<p>
	• Increase 4 rep Squat set from 275 lbs to 315 lbs.

	I recommended the GRIPMASTER for fingers because I thought of Ivan.
</p>

<p>
	Cuk. If you think about it, it's not just coordination that's essential, but also fingertip strength for closing a grip. Because if you have fingers of steel, think about it, you won't feel the pain the more you increase the strength in your grips. I'm talking here about the last part of your thumbs, by trying to lift a weight vertically with your fingertips like climbers. I suggest doing repetitions with 50, then 60-70. At 80, it's difficult; you're toughening your fingers like you do when closing a grip. Do 20-second weight holds with your fingers positioned to the left and center and slightly angled to develop the width of your grip. Because you're forcing your last fingers more than normal at the angle, and the effect will be noticeable at some point. Your central nervous system WILL ADAPT. Conclusion: High repetitions at a low load initially; increase each week; towards the difficult point at 3-5 reps; increase slightly and hold for 20-25 seconds; at some point the load will be high, 8-10 seconds.

	I did a BTR workout with grippers and it's given me more confidence. I filed down two of my grips, not too much, 4 to 5 mm, no more. I can feel that last millimeter progressing steadily as I increase the intensity and load. Regarding the HG and Grip Genie grippers, they can be useful. Furthermore, at a RGC of 155 and above for these two narrow grippers, you need to be more explosive to close your hands; you practice your technique and your goal grip, which is essential. Confidence - challenging yourself and returning to a strategy.

	Benefits (Squats) - Strengthen the thigh muscles (quadriceps, hamstrings) and glutes, increase strength and power, improve stability, and can aid in fat burning and bone strengthening.<br />
	Strength and Power Gains: By strengthening the main muscles of the posterior chain, this exercise improves strength and power.<br />
	Increased Growth Hormones: The muscular and nervous stress induced by leg training stimulates the production of testosterone and growth hormone, promoting maximum muscle growth.<br />
	Health Benefits and Injury Prevention<br />
	Bone Strengthening: Gravity, acting on the weight carried during movement, creates compression that stimulates skeletal growth and strengthening.<br />
	Increased Metabolism: Developing significant muscle mass increases the basal metabolic rate, meaning the body burns more calories at rest and during exercise. Weight loss aid: In addition to increasing metabolism, exercise promotes calorie expenditure and muscle toning, which helps burn fat.

	Advantages of choke collars: Practice squeezing the handles firmly for 3 to 5 seconds, repeating the exercise 5 times. Gradually begin to open the collar slightly, aiming for an opening of 30 mm (or 1 1/2 inches). Take your time and focus on the position you are working on. Also, force the collar closed after each failed attempt.<br />
	Regarding the correlation between a choke collar and a classic parallel closure, I believe you need to close the clamp at a distance of at least 2.5 cm (1 inch), or even 3.2 cm (1 1/4 inches), for 5 single repetitions to achieve a parallel closure. I am referring to the choke at the handles; the position is different at the spring. A width of 30 mm has proven to be the optimal width for me, virtually guaranteeing a choke collar closure. This is more related to the grip strength of the weaker hand. I believe that parallel closure is a good starting point for working with a choke clamp, but you need to work with a wider distance for better results.

	PLATE CURL BENEFITS<br />
	This is an effective exercise because it forces you to strongly contract the flexor muscles of your thumb and fingers to hold the plate while you flex your wrists through their full range of motion. Even at the highest point of the movement, you'll feel your finger flexors, and especially your thumb muscle, working harder. Plate curls are said to have a much greater effect on grip crush strength exercises than regular wrist curls, while plate curls are said to have an effect on regular wrist curls and anything else that relies on the wrist flexor muscles! You may also feel your tendons and finger joints aching the next day initially, which also suggests that plate curls greatly strengthen not only the muscles but also the joint structures and connective tissue from the tips of your fingers down to your wrist and forearms. Stronger tendons, ligaments, and joints in your fingers, forearms, and wrists will also help you transfer more power into your hands, meaning they will also contribute to strengthening your grip and hands.
