Congratulations to Gennadiy Maksiyan (Russia), who has just been certified on the Crushed-To-Dust! Challenge: a quick, fun way to demonstrate outstanding all-around grip strength.
The Crushed-To-Dust! Challenge comprises three elements:
• Closing a No. 2 Captains of Crush Gripper
• Lifting 90 kg/200 lb. on the Rolling Thunder®
• Lifting 20 kg/45 lb. on the IronMind Hub
“For the past 6 months, I have been training my grip strength 3-4 times a week using various equipment that I have at home,” Gennadiy told IronMind.
“I also train once a week in the gym to work on all muscle groups.”
“Strong grip helps me in my daily life and during gym workouts. I hope to soon certify [on the] Captains of Crush 3, as I focus more on training with grippers,” said Gennadiy.
The way Gennadiy sailed through these events was most impressive and bodes well for his future in the world of grip strength. Here's a link to Gennadiy's official attempt.
Congratulations, Gennadiy: your name has been added to the official certification list for the Crushed-To-Dust® Challenge . . . and here’s to your coming success with the Captains of Crush No. 3 gripper!
