He’s studying to be a military doctor and along with his academic degrees, Valerii Styrha (Ukraine) can now add CoC3 ’21 after his signature, as he has just been certified on the Captains of Crush No. 3 gripper—proving his world-class grip strength.

Training with Captains of Crush (CoC) grippers for three year, Valerii told IronMind, “I heard about CoC Grippers from my friends. I also watched a YouTube video about CoC Grippers and it intrigued me. I tried СоС No. 2 for the first time and I managed to close it. 

“I train my grip three times a week. I use periodization in my workouts, alternating between hard and light workouts,” said Valerii, adding, “I do a lot of work with my own hands because I am a massage therapist.”

“At the moment I am studying to be a military doctor. After graduating from university, I want to become a neurologist. I work as a massage therapist, in my free time I like to train in the gym. The main sport that I do is powerlifting. Twice became the champion of Kiev Cup among juniors,” said Valerii.

Congratulations, Valerii Styrha as it’s official: you have been certified on the Captains of Crush No. 3 gripper.
