Joe's advice on Grip Training



Saturday - DL + Static Holds
Sunday - FSQ, Back work…no grip training
Tuesday - Grip Work first (Grippers) and then the Upper Body work.
Wednesday - Squats + Crosswise Brick Exercise + Plate Pinch Deadlifts
Special note: Hand Extensions done in controlled fashion for 20 reps done for 3 sets post every grip training session.
That's good.
  • Walmart Gripper - 2 sets of 5 reps; first set is slow second set is fast no setting allowed
          • HG 150 Gripper - 2 sets of 2 reps; setting for the second set only
          • CoC #1 Gripper - Singles; setting allowed
          • HG 150 Gripper - 1 set of 6-8 reps; setting allowed
Go with that workout for now and see where you're at.
Right now I don't think I am very strong on this. So I was wondering if you'd like me to make any changes or if I should try this out. Let's say I am only able to do 1-2 singles with the CoC #1 (most likely scenario), is it okay if I go do 3 sets of 3-5 reps with the HG 150?
3 sets of 3-5 after the CoC#1? Yeah you could do that but I'd rather you did more singles with the No.1.
