Germany’s Simon Mahalsky is 22 years old, weighs 97 kg and is a striking 197 cm (6’ 7”) tall.    Simon told IronMind®, “I started with grip training in the end of 2007.  My focus is on wide-set training with grippers.  In addition I do exercises on the Rolling Thunder and 2" Vertical Bar.”

Choice of Champions’ Dr. Hermann Korte saw Simon close a No. 3 Captains of Crush, “quite easily on the 13th of March, right before the German Gripstrength Nationals that we held for the 8th time in consecutive years in Haltern am See.  In the competition, Simon placed 4th among 12 strong competitors.  Two of them were Captains of Crush® [i.e., certified on Captains of Crush® Grippers].” 

Earlier today, Simon closed the No. 3 for the money, and it’s no wonder that Dr. Korte told IronMind®, “We haven’t seen all of him yet!”

Indeed. 

IronMind® is proud to recognize Simon Muhalsky’s accomplishment and his name has been added to the official certification roster for the No. 3 Captains of Crush® (CoC) Gripper.

IronMind® would also like to note its gratitude to Dr. Hermann Korte (Choice of Champions), a longtime grip-strength supporter, who once again provided his able services as a top referee.
