Building on last year's roaringly successful Blob Challenge, the 2004 GNC Pro Performance Grip Gauntlet will feature an all-star cast: Wade Gillingham versus the No. 3 Captains of Crush® gripper, the Rolling Thunder®, and—of course—the one and only Blob, and you can try it too!

There will be cash prizes for succeeding with all three elements of the challenge and "a complimentary prize for making an effort to run the Gauntlet." And even if your grip isn't up to a world-class performance, stop by the GNC booth (near the main stage) and watch Wade demonstrate some feats of hand strength that border on the surreal. The GNC Pro Performance Grip Gauntlet will run all day Friday, Saturday and Sunday, so if you needed one more reason to come to this year's Arnold Expo, you just got it.
