Wozzer Posted June 13, 2004 Share Posted June 13, 2004 Hi all, New to the board here, I'm getting into BB and strength training and wanted to work on grip as part of that. I worked out for almost a year but it was all on and off, and I didn't stick to things like I oughta and didn't see much (anything?) in the way of gains. I'm 6" and 180lbs but I'm not strong (yet). I'm going to get back into it and really hit the iron hard and not let up ever. From my grip training I want to improve support grip for deads and other lifts, finger/hand/pinch strength for martial arts, crush for pistol shooting and while I'm at it I really need to make those forearms bigger. With that in mind I was thinking about doing the following: -3 sets plate pinching -3 sets hanging from a pullup bar as long as possible -3 sets crush grippers -3 sets wrist curls -2 sets reverse wrist curls Am I on the right track here or does this routine need to be reworked? Because I have a 4 day split: Mon - legs Tues - chest/tri Weds - rest Thurs - back/bi's Fri - shoulders/calves Sat/sun - rest I was planning on doing grip work once a week on Fri or on Sat. Will that get me good gains? Thanks in advance for your advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fedaykin01 Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 Will that get me good gains? It's possible. I would suggest training your grip more then once a week though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyle Posted June 14, 2004 Share Posted June 14, 2004 yeah, if you want a good grip spend the few bucks and get the KTA, as far as the rest of you routine., it may work for you, but I've had the best results from HIT style training, 2-3 days/week whole body each day, brief and intense workouts...
