Must have if u train CoC

the book starts with the history of the hand grippers from the ironman grippers to the present day CoC. Good and interesting read if you r into old strongmen or like to read about strength building history etc. the send half of the book has excellent suggestions for making the most of your CoCs. Engaging read overall and very informative.

The Gripper Bible!

I love this book! Instead of complicated answers to the simple question of how to get stronger using grippers, I learned valuable lessons on the application of hard work and goal-setting. That's what I like about Ironmind, they don't try to sell you anything other than what's required, and they are not afraid to let you know when honest hard work is the path to reaching your goal. The first part of the book is devoted to the history and development of Iromind's Captains Of Crush Grippers. It made interesting reading and cleared a lot of confusion for me about some of the claims being made by rival gripper manufacturers. The second part of the book focuses on how to train. Along with basic training advice from Randall Strossen aimed at the newcomer to gripper training, Joe Kinney and Nathan Holle reveal how they trained to officially close the number 4 Captains of Crush Gripper. Kinney shares some very interesting and innovative insights into his mental approach to workouts, and the training methods he uses, while Holle provides a different but equally effective method of training to get a super-strong crushing grip. I finished the book with renewed motivation to train, and the tools required to get the job done.
