How Do You Split Up Your Grip/wrist Training

[Jörg Keilbach]

I currently work my crush grip, pinch grip and support grip on mo. and th. and my forearms and wrists on tu. and fr.. I am still a beginer. would it be better to combine them all together and work just twice a week?

I choose a couple of things and train it hard for 2-3 months and then I switch exercises.

Right now Im training rolling thunder, hub and plate pinch.

A few weeks ago I trained euro pinch hard.

I know a master who trains something like:

day1: Grippers

Day2: wrist and thickbar

Day3: pinch

With restdays in between day 1 2 and 3.

He trains day 1 every 10 days, same for day 2 and 3. Every tenth day.

Hope you understand what I mean.

Only you know what works for you.

Try it out. If it works it works. If it dont, try something else.

I suggest you read thru all the info written in the grip well here on gripboard.

Best stuff I've ever read!

Thats good advice. Just try out and change your routine from time to time. I mean there are multiple exercises for each discipline of hand strength.

From my experience, less is more. I first did grippers twice a week, then cut back to once a week and it worked like a charm. I am making constant progress though im still not what i would consider a strong gripper.

Just listen to your body, and dont be shy to try new exercises that may seem odd at first glance
