Paul Markowski Posted April 24, 2017 Share Posted April 24, 2017 (edited) Yesterday, I modified my Little Monster gripper (now called FrankenMonster) by permanently placing a 6" copper piece of pipe on to the short handle. This way, I transformed the Beyond-the-Range short handle into a regular short handle. So, the workout began with me using the "toggling" principle to get what I believe to be the best workout of my life!! Toggling, in "grip-speak", is when you continuously change the force you are exerting on a heavy duty gripper that you have secured (in my case, a power rack) in order to take advantage of leverage. So, what I do is this: I get a great hold of the gripper in the power rack and then close it using my body weight to my advantage once closed, I then "lay off" a little as I move my body more to the side of the gripper (this takes some body weight off the gripper) I then allow the gripper to move a little out of he power rack hole which then gives only hand grip strength a true test as I squeeze and squeeze that gripper trying to maintain control of it, once I realize that it is becoming too much for me to keep relatively closed, I then use body weight once again in the Power Rack to bring it back to a closed position then, I once again allow that gripper to be "free" in the hole of the Rack and now it is my pure gripping power controlling the gripper this "back and forth" from total Rack control to pure grip power is what I consider to be "grip toggling" I did a pretty good set today which took almost 19 seconds!! My hand was toast after this set. See video below for a visual take on toggling....
