Are those a waste of time

>>40007865
They're okay for reducing joint soreness in heavy grip exercises like pull-ups/deadlifts and for physical therapy for hand injuries, but otherwise they won't miraculously improve your deadlift grip so you can add another pl8 to it if that's what you're hoping for. I use one to speed up the recovery in my sore finger joins from doing weighted chin-ups and deadlifts.

Nope. My friend's forearm is bigger than my calves and that's all he does

How would they be more of a waste of time than browsing and posting on an anonymous image board?

I have two regular hand grips and another adjustable pair that goes from 10kg to 40kg. The adjustable ones fucked up the skin of my hands because of the rubber, so I'm currently doing 3x65 with the regular ones and increase +5 reps per week. It's better than nothing.

No they won't necessarily make your arms huge though. Make sure to work your extensor with rubber bands and throw in some pinch blocks and a wrist roller. Now that combo will get you some great fore arms

>>40009250
thats nothing compared to captains of crush. I thought it was all bs at first, but theyre a real challenge.

>>40007865
Get the vice gripper instead.

>>40008980
not that guy, but compare the situation:

farmer's walks are a compound exercise. your grip strength will give out a certain point, let's measure it in steps. with hookgrip, it'll take more steps for your grip to give out. it trains your grip exactly the same as normal grip (hook grip doesn't make your forearm's grip strength stronger after all, it's just more advantageous for grip), but you took more steps. you trained the rest of the muscles more.

You could try deadlifts and curls and bench press with a fat bar.

This one weighs a mere 65 lbs. Not much heavier than normal, and about as big around as a pub pint glass.

>used it last night

>>40008033
shit

Are you ok, OP?

>all these normalfag responses
this board is fucking dead

>>40008033
/fit/ provides a lot of useful info about nutrition and weight lifting. Thanks to the sticky and some threads I finally am training properly at the gym while many others use machines with tiny weights. You're a normal scum faggot

>>40008033
OP SHUT THE FUCK DOWN.

>>40007865
wait I thought these are the things you put to on a barbell to secure the weights. No wonder I was getting so many weird looks.

If you do wrist curls + finger curls + reverse wrist curls + these I guarantee your grip will miraculously improve
