@DannyHamar I would never claim to be strong at curls or anything like that. This is entirely a feat of grip strength because of the 60mm diameter handle and a globe dumbbell. BW 160kg. You are clearly plenty strong enough for the curl part, as you say it's whether or not you could grip it. Best of luck to you.

Continue to save up, and then buy some Captains of crush, they will last you a lifetime.

@CarlMyerscoughGrip Alright, but i need an quick alternative that will last me a few months before i get a job and buy Captains of Crush.

To crush a potato what rated gripper would you be using

​@paulhussey884 I've only managed it twice in my life out of hundreds of attempts. I do my full gripper workout before working up to a single at a #4 or beyond and then have attempted the potato. So it is much harder than a 4. Full disclosure, I've only ever managed it with a russet potato from Trader Joe's, and they sit in the garage in the heat and dark for 3 to 5 days first. Some people have mentioned about closing a 3 and crushing a potato, but what they mean is splitting it with there fingers as I do with the larger fruits here, not a true crush. Similarly with an apple you'll see many that can split it, but less actually crushing it. I had credit card set the #4, and closed the ghp10 before I first got a potato.

What is your grip strenght

@Redman_30 You will likely need about 7 reps with the 2 in the same style to close the 2.5. The amount of reps it takes depends on the individual, but most people are between 6-10.

It is the rogue 2" axle. It actually measures 1.93" in diameter, exactly the same as the original Apollons axle.

@@CarlMyerscoughGrip That weight on a 1.93 bar, that's some grip strength you got there. 👍Hello Highland games.

@@stevemclean5127 Not yet, but he may well be capable one day.

Wanted to save my energy for a true attempt with the 6 😂. The knurling is ideal. Deep and grippy, but not so sharp where it's tearing the skin. Again I would say the best.

​@@CarlMyerscoughGrip Righteous, thx brother! Makes total sense now that I think about it (waiting on 5-band attempt) 🙂🙏🏻

Carl hasn't closed it YET 😁

He is 6 10

@@ttohv i knew he looked big, so he is a giant haha

​@@Pointblank776 Despite his calm and gentle demeanor, he is a mountain of a man, as they might say. 🙂 Larger hand size usually gives you an all-around advantage in grip, except for certain specific narrow pinch events. But with blobs, rolling handle deadlifts and grippers (in particular, when it comes to setting them), as far as I know having longer fingers + a wider span won't hurt. What's nice about Lloyd's AtomGripz being customizable is that you can specify the configuration based on your hand size and capabilities. Smaller handed people might want a standard or narrow spread, for example. 👊🏻

@@Pointblank776his hands are about larry wheels hand size, they are big but he says they’re not as big as expected for his size, this was just from one video though, so you can try find out how big larrys hands are 0:46
