Carries are hand training

Walking with a loaded bag is one of the most transferable grip exercises there is, and it trains posture at the same time.

Pinch differs from grip

Key pinch, tip pinch and three-point pinch are separate abilities. They fail separately and are trained separately.

Both hands get weak

After hand or wrist pain, strength drops on both sides. Train the other hand too.

How to run it

  1. Grip strength tracks with far more than hand health. It is worth training for its own sake.
  2. Taking weight through the hand is a skill — build it from the table, to the knees, to the floor.
  3. Two clean sessions at a load earn the next. In doubt, add a rep before adding a kilo.
  4. Any pins and needles during a hold: release, shake it out, and drop back a level.
