Grip Strength: Record Breakers

Not sure whether Mark Felix, a longtime leading performer on the Rolling Thunder, a benchmark test of grip strength, has any plans on September 10th, but maybe he like to hop in and pull a big number. Here, Mark is shown hauling up 261 lb. on the Rolling Thunder at Odd Haugen’s grip contest at the 2011 Los Angeles FitExpo. IronMind® | ©Randall J.
