Get a grip like a VICE! Are you stuck with your progress on pull-ups or plateaued on your deadlift, shrug, farmer’s walk, or other strongman lifts involving holds and grip? Your finger strength might be your weak spot! Pinch Block Grips are a proven tool to improve the strength of your pinch and hold, increase hand and grip strength, and develop more muscular forearms. Even those with the strongest of hands will be challenged when using pinch blocks. Rather than curling the palm, fingers and thumb around a narrow diameter bar or handle, the 2 inch wide pinch block spreads the workload out to the extremities, thus engaging the fingers and thumbs (and deemphasizing the palm) to bear the entire focus (and weighted load) of the body weight lift, weighted shrug, or pull. The harder you squeeze, the stronger you get! Attach pinch gripper blocks with the durable nylon straps and carabiner system to any pull-up bar on a power cage, crossfit rig, half rack, or wall mounted chin-up bar. Or, attach them to a barbell, kettlebell, or dumbbell to increase pinch strength while performing deadlifts, shrugs, farmers walk, and other strongman training and functional training movements. Feeling creative on back training day? Attach these to an upper pulley for a unique take on close grip pull downs or low row pulley for seated rows. The thick steel, clean smooth welds, and durable powder coated finish means your pinch blocks will hold up for years of strength training and will always have a place in your gym bag. The textured surface also holds more chalk when used by the serious athlete for a more secure pinch grip (over similar gripping blocks with smooth surfaces). Let your imagination go wild with these grip building accessories! Shipping weight 7 lbs.
