Fat Gripz Pro - The Simple Proven Way to Get Big Biceps & Forearms Fast - At Home Or In The Gym (Winner of 3 Men’s Health Magazine Awards) (2.25” Outer Diameter)

Product Information

On using FatGripz and asking the opinions of my friends, all of us are to the agreement of the surreal pump and rapid growth of our arms whilst using them. Many bodybuilders actually report the biggest size gains in the biceps and triceps after using Fat Gripz, as well as the forearms. Perfect for home gyms or public gyms, the easy to use, portable, and highly durable Fat Gripz are the best way to build arm muscle fast.

A lot of exercise equipment and accessories are worthless either because they are meant to be used in ways that are a waste of time at best and harmful at worst, or because they are poorly designed and/or constructed, and often both. For the unititiated, Fat Gripz are cylindrical silicone grips that can be wrapped around a barbell, dumbbell, or any other equipment handle. The tempo of my training session meant my eccentric portion was 4secs so this put even more pressure on the grip. Anyone who watches late night television or reads bodybuilding, fitness, or health related magazines knows there is a lot of gimmicky crap out there. It will be a sad time for many in America this Xmas with the shooting in Conneticut, my heart goes out to all those people affected.Crafted from heavy duty rubber, the Fat Gripz are made to stay in-place when used on properly sized dumbbells and barbells.

After trying them out I plan to use them on all pushing, arm, and forearm exercises (except on the UXS which already has thick bars for dipping and push ups) and alternating their use with a normal grip on pulling movements. Fat Gripz slide over almost any standard barbell, dumbbell, chin up bar or cable attachment, or exercise machine handle instantly converting them into thick bars. One can only imagine what these would be like on true forearm exercises like wrist curls, reverse barbell curls, farmer’s carries and dead hangs from a pull up bar. After shrug bar deadlifts I could barely hold on for chin ups using the Fat Gripz, mostly due to forearm fatigue but also partly because on the thicker chinning bar on the Nautilus OME (1-1/4 inch diameter) their outside diameter was nearly 2-1/2 inches.a) They have slight grooves in them, this helps in avoid sliping as it improves the grip and lets one use more weight. As most reviewers have said, you'll have to leave your ego at the door as you'll be able to move less weight than you normally would. So, when a few people asked me about Fat Gripz after I recommended using a thick bar for forearm exercises in How To Build Bigger Arms I was skeptical. On certain exercises (rows, deadlift), you will have to decrease your normal poundage's, a blow to your ego! I probably could have used more weight on dips because I had no hand discomfort when using them, which is normally a problem when dipping on the Nautilus Omni Multi Exercise (OME).

This will instantly convert dumbbells, barbells and pull-up bars into thick bars (so that you can reclaim your lost size and strength gains). Standard barbells and dumbbells simply aren't going to replicate this which is why many strongman competitors are now using Fat Gripz. Useful in sports like climbing and martial arts, grip training will carry over to many aspects of every day life. I designed the pushing bars on my UXS bodyweight multi exercise station with a two-inch diameter for this reason. I have average sized hands (the distance from my wrist to the end of my middle finger is about 7-3/4 inches) and the standard Fat Gripz were challenging enough to grip to produce a considerable burn in my forearms without being so hard I had to drop the weight on anything other than shrug bar squats and deadlifts.The host of the podcast went into detail about how great they are and how they add a lot of value to a workout. Grip training and overall arm strength is a huge part of this which is why Fat Gripz are now very popular with Crossfit athletes.

If you do, you better be wearing steel toe shoes because your foot is about to be smashed, especially if you have small hands like I do.He implements biofeedback in training; teaching his clients to truly understand what their bodies are telling them.
