Naturally, if competing at Grip is not something you are interested in, I will also be covering other things such as General Grip Training and Grip Training for Sports.īelow is the write-up about Nationals that I submitted to my hometown newspaper. If anyone has ideas as to how I can make the sport Grow, I am open to feedback. I plan on running several contests this year as well as traveling to others. It is my mission to help the sport of Grip grow. If there’s anything you’d like covered in future broadcasts, please feel free to leave a comment at the Grip Strength Radio site. You can also download the mp3 of the broadcast and put it on your iPod or burn it to a disk so that you can listen to it on your commute to work. I did a complete run-down of everything that went down at Nationals, plus the show also includes a couple of other segments, including the upcoming Grip Strength Calendar, Classic Comment, and a few other ideas I have planned. Going forward, I will be posting a weekly radio show on our site on the Dave Depew network, Grip Strength Radio.

To finally once again earn the title of United States Champion is a great feeling. I love devoting time to it and helping others out with their training so that they can improve and enjoy competitions and accomplishing world class feats of strength as much as I do.

In 2005, I was the National Champion here in the United States, but since then, I have not done better than second place on the grandest stage of United States Competition.Īfter 5 long years, my training has finally paid off, as this past weekend, I won once again, beating last year’s champion, Andrew Durniat.ĭVD’s of the event are just about ready. As you all know, I compete in several Grip Strength competitions each year, and in December 2009 I even set a World Record in one of the main events, the Two Hands Pinch. Friends, I am happy and proud to make today’s post.
