"The Greatest Strongmen of the Past Now Teach You How to Build a Grip of Iron"
These 4 Classic Training Courses show you unusual exercises, training tips, workout ideas, feats of the old timers and the methods to
build your own pair of mighty mitts
Dear Friend,
An iron grip and powerful forearms were essential to an Old Time Strongman for obvious reasons - you can't bend a horseshoe, rip a deck of cards, or tear
a phonebook in half if you don't have strong hands. This is also a big factor in why many of the Old Time Strongmen were well known for their
unbelievable grip strength - and why many of their records still stand to this day. Now you can learn exactly how to do it too,
directly from the greatest Strong Men themselves with our Classic Grip Course Collection.
Each of these authors have the credentials to help you build the strongest hands around:
Developing the Grip and Forearm

Developing the Grip and Forearm
by Thomas Inch (1930)
Thomas Inch was Britain's Strongest Youth at 16, the first official Britain's Strongest Man and
at one time had the largest physical fitness correspondence school in Great Britain, but
in old time strength circles, the name Thomas Inch is recognized above all else for one thing - Grip Strength.
His "unliftable" Challenge Dumbbell has defied thousands of strong men over the last hundred years
(and still does today.) Many a strength athlete tried but failed to break it off the ground...
After many years and numerous requests, Inch finally decided to put in writing the methods by which he
had developed his incredible level of grip and forearm strength.
So here it is,
once again made available to the potential "grip masters" of the strength world. If
the lifting of heavy weights is your goal; don't let an inadequate grip stand in
your way! This book will strengthen the weak link between you and record poundages!
Fully illustrated, soft cover and 8 1/2 x 11 in size.

Iron Claws: Grip Development and Bench Press Course
by Michael H. Brown (1974)
A rare and extremely hard-to-find training course full of valuable and result producing
information- now available once again. In the early 1970's Mike Brown set out
to bench press maximum weights using a unique partial range of motion training program that he designed.
The weights grew heavier and one day Brown sprained his wrist with over 600 lbs. on the bar. He realized then
and there that if his bench press was going to get any stronger, his wrists and forearms would need to follow suit.
The Result is Iron Claws: Grip Development and Bench Press Course This extremely interesting
training course first appeared in 1974 among the many unusual titles in The Madison Co.
book catalogue. Few copies were printed and even fewer were sold but now you can benefit from this
course in the high-quality modern reprint.
You'll learn about how the old-timers developed 16" forearms and enormous coin bending grip strength,
the author's special wrist roller, rack rebounders for heavy bench pressing, training in mud and a variety of
other unique training ideas.
