Ya grandpa can do a 200lbs grip trainer like its nothing probably could go harder he was a mechanic for 45years. Man would use his bare hands instead of tools in alot of cases lol.@@EPIC_Gaster
The real crazy thing about this gripper is that it's advertised as 50 kg to 1200 kg with up to 8 springs. It would average 150 kg or 3x the lowest for each spring slot. Some of the slots would add much more resistance than the others for it to work that way.
I got that gripper several years ago. Hands down the best gripper I have :) I normally use it with 2-3 springs. The ergonomics are good and the adjustability is too.
Guessing they're 200lbs/inch springs or something, but it's also a lever where the lower springs exert more force because they expand further that the ones near the hinge.
Yeah I was just noticing that. Whoever engineered this doesn't understand engineering because that's not 1200 lb even if it is 6x200 lb springs. You can easily see that by putting on only one spring in each of the six positions and feel the difference in each position
@That70sChannel or maybe it's perfectly designed like that on purpose... To make it easier to train... instead of making a jump from 200lb with 1 spring to 400lb with 2 springs... U can slide them to be 250, then 300, 350, then 400lb... Jeez... idk why u geniuses who probably can't even grip half of 1 spring or come up with a better design, have to make everything so much harder and try to discredit ppl who are clearly better than u... 😂😂😂
@@JohnSmith-uq4ogthe design is clearly shifty. Even if the max is 1200 lbs, there is no accurate way of finding how much force is needed just by looking at the spring positions.
I was at a trade show in Tennessee a few months back and one of the suppliers eho had set up a booth had a couple of grip trainers and had set up a little competition. If you could one hand the 150 pounder you got a free licensed cooler, so i figured I'd give it a shot (For context I'm an electrician so my grip strength is fairly high). He handed me the 40, no sweat light work. Same deal with the 60, then he pulled out a 100 pounder and i can honestly say that i felt muscles in my hand move that i didnt even know were there lol. I did not walk out of there with a cooler, but i did get a couple free shirts.
Lmao nice man. Everyone thinks trades gives you incredible world class grip. They don't. Above average for sure though. Not to mention. Unless your pulling wire through pipe everyday. Being an electrician doesn't do much for your grip.
Surprisingly, people actually use it. A buddy who does free climbing uses that for training. At first I thought it was a badly designed aluminum cutter, but then he showed me how to use it. He's such a slim guy with a lean build, but he reps that like it's nothing.
@@AkiraGuitar777 he's just about the same height as me, 5'11. If I remember correctly, it was more than a couple of springs, but not sure if it was more than 4. He can hold himself up a cliff with just him sticking his hand into a crevice, so I guess it makes sense to train with these.
Shit let a rock climber try it. One time I shook a hand of a rock climber and shit almost made my hand bleed. Them rock climbers got 10 grit sand paper hands with bumps everywhere.
You see what people don't understand is your grip strength is actually based off your forearm strength as the muscles in your forearm are what close your hand so if you made your forearm super strong maybe
Love the content. Appreciate if you'd not have the door bell in the future. Wife and kids asleep, im scrolling youtube, doorbell, dogs lose their shit, I get in trouble 😆 lol
Using a normal store-bought one that has adjustable strength on a single Spring is hard enough. Turn off on the max setting. But stuff like grip strength tools like this is something some people obsess over and they can condition themselves. To where they are just always using it and walking around with it. Because it's something so portable that can just fit in their pocket. So I definitely believe this is doable but probably on a very rare case. To case scenario I have a multiple of the adjustable ones on the highest settings are Very difficult to do more than just a few unfortunately, it doesn't say how many pounds it is supposed to be. You don't like counts. How many times At the same time, the adjustable ones squeeze the coil in tighter. As you can see here in this video, there's gaps in between all of the aint in the coils. And with the adjustable single coil once when fully adjusted. It's just a tight, very small coil that is pushed together until you use grip string to pull it apart. And when it is on the lightest setting, it resembles something similar to what you see in this video a coil that has gaps
After watching a second time, it didn't even show the person in the main video doing a single rep, those appear To be trampoline springs which are about twice the size of normal grip strength springs
For anyone confused, the dude can't actually grip that yet. I think his max is like 350 or some shit which is still barbaric but no he's not currently gripping half a ton
I mean,a single spring is enough to train with,since it'll be 90Lbs and that is extremly hard in it's own to grip with one hand,just start with 2,keep training with them until you get stronger and do the progressive overload with one +1spring each time,you'll get a broken arm grip FR
I definitely need one of these to work on my grip strength, I'm a mechanic, the torque bolts on a dually Ford F1 are something like 550 to 600 ft pounds per square inch. You got to have muscle and Mass to make that happen. I need this!
Also Amazon stocks certain thing in places where they are re likely to sell so they probably stocked this at a random location far from him due to it not being a common product
