Thick bar (or fat grips) deadlifts & farmers walk. Captains of crush gripper (men should aim for #2 minimum) wrist roller, dumbell wrist curls (pronated and supinated/ flexion & extension) pullups and dead hangs with bodyweight, dip belt with extra weight as well as towel pullups. Plate pinches and carries, opening your hand in a container of builders sand, hammer curls, these coloured tubes that these blokes are talking about, isometric holds and using expand yo hand bands or elastic bands over the tips of your fingers while you open your hand (extensor training, very good for tennis Elbow etc) as you should train your flexors and extensors equally. If you're a male under 30 & your grip strength measures under 60 kg on an electric hand dynamometer, you have a weak grip.

@MR-sn1fu 4 жыл бұрын

That means a majority of men on average have a weak grip. -- If it's the 'average' to be under that number than I don't know what 'weak' means. -- According to Livestrong, which is referring to a 1985 publication from a physical medicine journal. "97.8-143.8" lbs is the average for men between 25-30. That would put men between Sport and No. 1 CoC. 60 kg is roughly 132 lbs. Which is between the No.5 to No 1. -- So, you're talking about the high end of average male grip strength. This is specifically referring to normalized data based off 350+ males in the Milwaukee area.

@@followtheleader1114 I grip a CoC2 (around 195lbs/88.5kg) at my desk. But I wouldn't expect everyone to do that. It's useful for other workouts like rows and dead lifts (or BJJ).. My point is the average exemplifies the excessive numbers he's pulling outta nowhere. I'm not all about the 'cool guys grip so hard' masculinity stuff. And anyone coming here to learn about what is 'average' and what they should be at when look at their own strength (possibly to assist in recovery exercises after trauma) should know demonstrable researched data exists countering this random claim.

I had hand surgery that made things worse, and I finally found something that helped build my hand muscles. My fingers don't know how to hang on to a glass of water... I was rolling a lemon to soften it to make lemonade and it was really difficult! So I started using a tennis ball, rolling it back and forth, side to side. It has helped with basic coordination because my hand often doesn't hear what my brain is saying.
