terryduty Posted December 23, 2001 Share Posted December 23, 2001 How about: Metal rods for bending/scroll work Car license plates to tear in half Elastic tie cables for resistance-related inventions Train smart! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 23, 2001 Share Posted December 23, 2001 I love the magnet and elastic tie cable ideas. You could hook up something similar to what the Westside guys use (with the cable.) The license plates could also make a great training tool, not only to tear, buy what about putting a few of them together for a very thin pinch "block". Get an engine. Practice all kinds of lifts with it. It will build your funtional strength, but its also something that you may need to do in real life some day.
