more like 'FAT TROLL' Member 984, 6331 posts SQ 420, BP 260, DL 3351015.0 kgs @ 165kgs UnEq | Got bored of training with grippers mate but i still like feats of grip strength that the general public can relate to. To the average individual this sort of thing, and bending nails, tearing a deck of cards etc... is more impressive than say benching 200kg or squatting 300kg because they can relate to it. | ||

I don't think it's a coincidence that if you can work-up to little party tricks like can crushing, you've already spent more than a fair amount of time on the sensible stuff. | ||

No one believed him anyway.

I love this approach... make some wild statement, then wait till someone calls you out on it before suggesting you probably don't know what you're talking about. Just thinking about the possibility that no one would have called you out. The thought of everyone believing something you imagined you read once...well it makes me sick Lee! | ||

I had to use a Red Bull in my left hand for a while though, until the strength caught up. | ||

I really cant be arsed arguing with you Col, but dont think what I said was particularly negative? Lets just agree to disagree though mate, you bore me when your being an argumentative cock! | ||

SUGDEN SUCKS! Which is why i am here... Member 370, 1520 posts SQ 285, BP 185, DL 302.5772.5 kgs @ 94kgs Eq | it is a different strength crushing an item than holding a heavy weight! my grip strength is good but i dont think that relates to crushing a can!! can crushing is about generating as much preasure as possible on the can before it explodes!! you dont need good grip to crush it! | ||

IT was hard as f**k for me to crush that coke can with 2 hands!! so to do it with one is crazy strong!! i dont think i would ever be able to do that! | ||
