PeterSweden Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 I've been hitting the 2h euro pinch hard twice a week for 3 weeks in a row now, since I got it from Mr Horne. Today was the 6th session and the weights just keep on feeling lighter even tho they get heavier I maxed out in RT today even tho my forearms and thumbs and fingers are fatigued from all the pinchwork I've done. I still pulled 81-82kg. Beating my last max in RT with ~1kg. This must mean that when pinch goes up thickbar goes up and when thickbar goes up pinch goes up?

jvance Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 I think the carryover is reciprocal to a certain point. Pinching helps to increase almost all other facets of grip - to a slight degree. Specific training still is king but pinch is probably the best overall grip movement. IMHO anyways..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xvx Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I've been mostly working block weights and thick bar for awhile, I haven't tested my max in a minute but they seem to help each other out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
