So I???m at the Arnold Classic recently and saw the FatGripz booth; another one of those ???why the hell didn???t I think of this?!??? simple products that adds so much potential value to a workout for the cost, it???s a ???no-brainer??? to own them. While at the booth, I did a few sets of chins ( see minute 3:20 of vid from Arnold below) and as usual, I could feel it in my grip, and arms much more so then if doing it without the FatGripz. They are one of those uber simple cost effective products that simply works in an increasingly overly complicated world, but more on that shortly???
Here???s a simple fact of life: if your back and legs can dead-lift 700lb, but your grip ends at 300lbs, your dead-lift is 300 lbs. Thus, your grip is truly the final link in the chain that dictates what you can pull off the ground or what you can hold onto in general, be it a chin up bar, barbell, or other objects. Your grip is your ultimate contact with the weights. For strength athletes, such as power lifters, strongman competitors, and others, grip strength is king. Without it, you are no place. When it comes to strength, you are only as strong as your weakest link and most strength athletes know that fact all too well.
