Ep. 491: Is Grip Strength REALLY All It's Cracked Up to Be?

Over the past few years (more, really) there has been a discussion over the seemingly outsized importance of grip strength for not just your overall strength, but also your longevity.  But is it really true?  What impact DOES grip strength have on your overall strength, health, and longevity?  I give you the must-know info in this short podcast.  On that note, if you like training that: · Gives you more strength than it takes from you · Improves your stamina and resilience simultaneously · Powers-up every nook, cranny, crevice, and corner of your Soft Machine Then you just might like my 9-Minute Kettlebell and Bodyweight Challenge. As the name indicates, it's just 9 minutes long, and it's designed to be done WITH your current workouts – NOT instead of them. Even cooler: Many find that it actually amplifies their strength in their favorite kettlebell and bodyweight moves, like presses, squats, pullups, and more. And best of all, it's free. How free? I'm talkin' freer than the 4th of July, my friend. Get thee thine own copy here:  http://www.9MinuteChallenge.com  Have fun and happy training! Aleks Salkin
