Hello everyone… 

Spring is just around the corner and thoughts of losing a few pounds to tighten up for bathing suits and being outside during the summer months is on everyone’s minds. This month’s topic goes along with looking good for the summer, but is more for the guys wanting to pump up those guns. If you’re looking to add some arm size… I strongly encourage you to consider incorporating “Fat Gripz” into your arm training regimen.

WHAT ARE FAT GRIPZ?

Fat Gripz are a hard rubber sleeve that easily converts barbells, dumbbells, cable attachments, chin-up and ez-curl bars etc. into “thick bars” or a thicker grip by easily increasing the bar or handle diameter to give you the benefits of training with a “thick bar.”

  

Thick bar training can help produce bigger strength and muscle gains (especially to the arms) thru increased muscle activation of hands and arms.

5 BENEFITS OF TRAINING WITH A THICKER BAR 

1. Increased muscle activation—thicker handles stimulate much more muscle activation of the hands and arms… More muscle activation means more muscle and strength gains.
2. Natural movement—Using a thicker bar or grip, closely mimics the partially open hand position of that when lifting most heavy or awkward objects.
3.  Automatic grip training—muscle activation from the thick bar trains your grip the whole time, eliminating the need for other grip specific training.
4. Increased Concentration—thick bars are more difficult to handle and require more concentration and focus to lift the weight. This alone could stimulate more strength gains.
5. Less imbalances and injuries—thick bars stress the joints less by shifting more of the load onto the muscles                           

Incorporating Fat Gripz into your training gives you a lot more variety for training those guns… and could make a big difference to your muscle size and strength!
