My name is Nikki Thomas and I have one goal: to provide the best fitness education I can to the worl
Pretty pumped about these! I'm now selling hand grippers, very similar make to other more well-known (and costly) hand gripper.
Grippers like these are not only hard to find in general but usually insanelY expensive. These are a proven method to increase your grip strength unlike all the whack grip training products on Pinterest
!
Plus, they also come with 100% FREE SHIPPING!
Using hand grippers regularly can lead to significant improvements in grip strength, which has a wide range of benefits for overall health and fitness.
Improved grip strength can help with everyday activities like carrying groceries or opening jars, as well as sports and fitness activities that require a strong grip, such as weightlifting, rock climbing, or martial arts.
These start at 100lb ,which is a little bit stronger than what you'd find in a regular sporting store and go all the way up to 350lb, which is amazing grip strength, so the upside (and the challenge) is there.

Pinch blocks are an amazing tool for training your pinch grip strength .
These devices come in different sizes and widths to help you choose the difficulty level and train a range of pinch types.Grip strength is important because it helps you perform daily tasks with ease and can improve your overall fitness level.
Pinch blocks are particularly effective because they engage the fingers and
thumbs in a way that removes the emphasis on your palms, making your
pinch stronger.
The regular hand grippers you see are training the crush grip, which has a cool name and the way I remember it is it's the strength you use in handshakes. The other one is a support grip which is used when hanging from a bar or holding onto a weight.
Training with pinch blocks is easy to track, modify, and intensify over time,
making it a suitable exercise for everyone.
So why not give it a try and see how it can improve your grip strength!

I started this content creation thing with the goal to create simple, no-nonsense fitness advice that was backed by science, and to make that content as helpful as possible.
Thankfully, it resonated with people and due to everyone sharing, liking and commenting on my videos, my accounts started really growing and I decided to triple-down and (not very) wisely quit my job and do this full time.
Whether or not that was a smart decision remains to be seen but if I never tried, it was guaranteed to fail, so I might as well try.
I'm now at the point where brands are contacting me about promoting their products, but until now I haven't promoted a single thing, except for the stuff I sell personally.
All I have is my reputation, and I'm not using that to give some sh*t-tier company a bigger market share.
So it was important to me to partner with a company that I would stand behind and luckily Legion are exactly that.
They are a supplement company only selling ingredients that are backed by science in validated doses (and linking peer-reviewed studies on the ingredients on the product page is an absolute power move tbh), their products are independently lab-tested for purity, and contain no artificial flavours or sweeteners.
So if you're looking for some high quality supplements and want to support me, you can use my discount code for 20% OFF which is a win-win, or click the link above for the same deal!
I wanted to share something pretty awesome with you all - advanced hand grippers. You know, those things that help you strengthen your grip? They're not easy to find, and usually, they cost a fortune. But guess what? I stumbled upon a great deal, and I thought you might be interested!
You know how there are all these grip training products floating around on Pinterest? Well, let me tell you, those are just a bunch of gimmicks. These hand grippers, on the other hand (pun intended), are the real deal. They actually work! No more wasting time and money on those ineffective products.
And here's the cherry on top - they come with FREE SHIPPING! Yep, you heard it right. No extra charges to worry about. 🚚
Now, let me tell you why grip strength is so important. It's not just about impressing people with your crushing handshake (although that's pretty cool too).
Having a strong grip can make everyday activities like carrying groceries or opening jars a breeze. And if you're into sports or fitness, a powerful grip is crucial for activities like weightlifting, rock climbing, or martial arts. It gives you an edge and helps you perform at your best. 💪
If you're interested in getting your hands on these grippers (pun intended again), head to the link below or shoot me a message. I'll give you all the details and make sure you don't miss out on this opportunity to level up your grip strength.
Trust me, these grippers are worth it. So, let's get that grip game strong and crush those goals together! 💪🔥

Upper body mobility starts here
For follow-along mobility workouts head to: https://patreon.com/qedfitness
👆🏼The thoracic spine is the base of all upper body movement. It is the part of your spine that connects your neck to your lower back, and it allows you to twist, bend, and extend your torso. Without enough mobility in this area, everything up the chain is going to suffer, leading to poor movement and pain in your shoulders, neck, and upper back.
🙌🏼So try this thoracic mobility exercise for buttery smooth shoulders. It will help you improve your posture, reduce stiffness, and increase your range of motion. All you need is a foam roller and some floor space. You can do this exercise anytime, anywhere, as a warm-up, a cool-down, or a standalone routine.
👉🏼So lay down, grab yourself a foam roller. I'm on my side, I'm going to place the foam roller on the ground and my bent leg on top of it. Bottom leg will be straight, then both arms out in front of you, and we're going to draw the biggest circle we can, keeping that hand in contact with the ground at all times. Don't worry if you get to this position and your knees start to come up, you can pin it down with your hand or increase the height of what you're putting your knee on. And then once we get to that end position, come back all the way. Again, the bottom hand stays put as the top hand draws the biggest circle you can, keeping it in contact with the ground. Then once we get to that end position, deep breath and come back to the starting position. Do 10 reps both sides and your shoulders will be feeling brand new.
🚀 Did you know that slant boards are not only awesome for improving your strength and flexibility, they're pretty versatile too!
Just standing on one with your foot at an angle can activate key muscles that help reduce your risk of getting injured by improving your balance.
Slant boards are also a way of reducing wrist pain when doing push ups (by decreasing the extension of the wrist which often helps people with wrist issues to perform the push up and similar movements).
And there are tons of stretches you can do too, like calf stretches, toe touches, and soleus (which is technically your calf still but you know what I mean 🥸) stretches.
Just remember to take it easy and ease into the stretches and exercises!
