Fatboy250 Posted April 6, 2001 Share Posted April 6, 2001 I wanted to know if there are any grip trainers that would have a comparison in grip strength for this guy who was in my contest this past weekend. He really put on a show for everybody. Trap bar hold 285lbs for 1:55sec You can check out all the results at www.geocities.com/scufc/Past.html Jason Rauch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bobjodoin Posted April 7, 2001 Share Posted April 7, 2001 I've seen some of the guys I train with including former shot/discus all-American and pro Highland games competitor Art McDermott do 1:00 farmer's walk holds with 300 per hand with Mastiff implements. My current best is 275's for 0:35. I'm going to beat that tomorrow. I'll either go for a minute or try to get 300 for some time. I've never pulled the 300 so we'll see.

Bill Piche Posted April 7, 2001 Share Posted April 7, 2001 Bob, I believe this trap bar hold is 285 with BOTH hands. Not 300 in EACH hand. Is this 285 in EACH Hand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fatboy250 Posted April 9, 2001 Author Share Posted April 9, 2001 Yes, that is correct. Both hands. Obviously, you have a much better grip. But this event, all weights were a multiple of each competitor's BW. This guy weighed 176lbs. (1.6xBW=285lbs) Jason Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bobjodoin Posted April 9, 2001 Share Posted April 9, 2001 Yup. I figured it was two hands. I was just throwing in a comparison. I got the 300's off the ground but my hold was only about 10 seconds. The middle finger on my left hand is now trashed. OOPS. Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
