Grip Strength Secrets: Why Most Are Training It Wrong!

You’ve been training your grip strength all wrong, and it’s holding you back! In this episode of Mark Bell’s Power Project Podcast, Mark Bell and Nsima Inyang hang chat with Daniel “Raspberry Ape” Strauss to uncover the secrets to grip strength that most people miss. From the different types of grip strength like crush and support to why forearm training is key for preventing injuries, this episode dives deep into what it really takes to build hands of steel.


You’ll hear why lifting natural stones feels so different from barbells, how sandbag training can improve your overall strength, and the surprising connection between ancient tools like clubs and modern fitness. Whether you’re into grappling, lifting, or just staying pain-free, this conversation is packed with tips for stronger, healthier hands. Don’t miss it!
