IronMind implements are a great way to improve your grip. In the video below, I’m using a pinch-grip block, but there are many more tools you can explore: https://www.ironmind-store.com/Pinch-Grip-Tools/products/40/.

There are two ways to incorporate these into your workout, depending on what phase of training you’re in:

a) Extensive Phase: 3–4 sets of 4–6 reps, holding for 6–8 seconds
b) Intensive Phase: 10 sets of 1 rep (singles), holding for 8 seconds

Between reps, place the weight on the ground briefly to release the tension, then go again. Train your non-dominant side first, and match it with the dominant side.

You can do this type of grip training at the end of your workout 2–3 times per week. Just make sure to rotate implements—don’t use the same one every session.

I learned these methods 18 years ago from the late Charles Poliquin at a seminar in Arizona, and I still use them today. You should too!
