Alawadhi Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 (edited) I met Khaled Awa Jashell after Devon Larrat said he couldn't top roll him and has amazing grip. Nice guy. Very kind and a strong man. Intelligent too. 9.1 Inches hand. Hand span is 11.2 inches. Thumbs are long. Longer than Jedd Johnson I guess. Thick fingers. Palms 5 inches. Big forearms almost like mine without training. Wrist size is also almost like mine at 8.2 inches (mine 8.3 inches). STRONG dude whom Devon Larrat couldn't top roll. Can beat the Indian national champion in Armwrestling without training. Can he beat me in grip? Maybe. Thick bar for sure as he can go head to head with the likes of Laine Snook LOL. Not so in two hand pinch, crush and hub. Videos on my channel. Here I was just showing him how to close grippers. And more videos on my YouTube channel. He easily lifted the fatman blob, repped the 172 steel inch five times each hand and lifted the 98KG Inch! Laine Snook, Brian Shaw and Steve Gardener should be alarmed! Guy is just very strong. He works for 14 hours a day and eats rice and occasionally meat from time to time. According to him, his father has the same forearms and hand size and his brother bigger! I believe him. In around 2 weeks time, I Larry Wheels will return my Arm Wrestling table and I will then Pull Khaled! He has a future if he puts his mind into it, train, eats well and rests well. I think I should Sponsor him. Edited August 15, 2020 by Alawadhi 24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mywor Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 And above all he seems like a great and humble guy atleast based on videos That lift with the 98kg Inch was level as well! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gripmaniac Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 He made those lifts with a standard Inch look like easy warmups !!!!! At least the 98kg feat required some effort. Amazing demonstration of hand and wrist strength - thanks for posting. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricochet Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 @Alawadhi Thank you for sharing! Definitely does appear to be a very nice, humble, and scary strong fellow as you, Larry, and Devon have all said. If given a solid chance, some key guidance/coaching, and some financial help this monster could really take the arm wrestling and grip strength worlds by storm! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no other way for him. Handle length is 4" and his hands width are 5". Level should be the only option I guess. 23 hours ago, gripmaniac said: He made those lifts with a standard Inch look like easy warmups !!!!! At least the 98kg feat required some effort.

I remember a friend of mine back in 2006 or 07 who visited me. I had either a #1 or a #2. Dude was thick boned and strong overall without training too. Naturally built. I asked him can you close this gripper. He said this is easy, assumed the plastic grippers. He just used two fingers and close it so fast TNS. He then said oh this is hard. Dude didn't knew what he had accomplished. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alawadhi Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 Forgot to mention, he wights between 110 Kg to 115 KG and his height I am not sure but surely between 5'11" to 6'1" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has very thick hands, so with the right technique he could reach the highest level at those too. Would be interesting to see him try the axle also. And of course, there's other feats you can do with dumbbells, like inch clean. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only downside is grippers as he has very thick hands. He could easily close a CoC #1 but couldn't close the #2 and the HG 400 (like 2.3). Then I showed him how and he did it. Weird thing is (not weird for him) the HG400 was so easy for him then. This is because it felt way better in his hands. Will guide him now and see. I think he has the clean grip power but not the clean strength itself. Will ask him to try this coming Friday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alawadhi Posted August 17, 2020 Author Share Posted August 17, 2020 I am pretty sure with training he will be as strong as Brian Shaw and Laine Snook one day. He is already very close to them now. I think perhaps 7 feet Big Sam Sopolinski is around his level too. But Sam is 7 feet, big hands too (not as big), trains a lot and eats very well and gets help too. So yeah!

It takes time to find the right technique (which isn't the same for every hand). Once he finds the right position he can close the #4. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Florian Kellersmann Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 (edited) What a Freak of nature! I saw him on Devon's channel already, but your videos show objective, how strong he really is!

Technique is important but strength is a must for bigger grippers. No one will close the CoC #4's and GHP 9's and 10's of the world without enormous strength 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can have the best technique in the world, but if the strength isn't there you're not closing big grippers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grippers are a dynamic strength while thick bar is open hand holding strength. Some people are more geared for dynamic strength. There are numerous examples. Very few guys are elite at both. Most of the time guys are dominant at one way more than the other 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
