/24-7PressRelease/ - February 18, 2008 -- Hello, my name is Bill Collins, 5 time World Armwrestling Champion and Captain of TEAM USA Armwrestling is not the bar room sport, as it's been perceived. There are several professional organizations and television shows that support this sport and it is soon to be recognized in the Olympics. Armwrestling is the fastest sport on this earth. Speed, technique, power and strategy are key elements for countering offensive and defensive moves that have to be made with spontaneous split second decisions. Cross training is so important and it involves hand, grip, wrist, forearm, tendons, finger and arm strength.
These key elements can not be done with one single exercise or a single piece of equipment. Tendons have to be conditioned and strengthened for several weeks and can be accomplished by pulling stationary cables and bands. The wrist, fingers and arm can develop strength from wrist and arm curls, stationary cable pulls, and pinching weights as you lift them. Every part of the arm plays an important role. The forearm has several different muscles and most exercises only reach a certain group of these muscles and unless you have a full blown gym at your disposa,l your forearm is not getting the maximum from your work out.
I've noticed huge stength gains in my top and lower forearm along with grip strength using the Gripstik. It's a piece of equipment that can be used during set down time, office breaks. It packs real easy when I'm traveling on business and is also very inexpensive. You get a total forearm, wrist and hand work out any time and any place with out going to a gym. Controlling the match is the objective of armwrestling and when all the key elements of your arm are prepared it's the success of winning championships. The Gripstik is part of my total arm work out and has been instrumental with conditioning, strengthening and developing my grip and forearms that's needed continue my success as a world Armwrestling Champion.
