Getting a Grip

Part of my kettlebell snatch training includes grip strength. A strong grip is important for just about everything, from fighting sports to avoiding carpal tunnel syndrome in daily life.  I've had this 250 pound gripper for several years, but have never made much progress with it. I've been playing around with it for a while, and have finally closed it! The left hand has a way to go. Perhaps one day I'll close Ironmind's Captains of Crush #3 gripper.  If you want to live without pain in your hands and elbows, grip training is essential.
