Has anyone used these grip strengtheners? Can they help improve my forearm strength? I don't have time to go to the gym, so I'm thinking of buying some for home use.

How bad is a grip strength of 25kg for an underweight person who never goes to the gym?

Hello. A few months I herniated a couple of discs in my cervical spine. The discs are touching some nerves, and that's creating some weakness in my arms and hands. That was confirmed by an MRI and EMG. The doctor told me to get a Hand Dynamometer, so I can track my strength as I try to rehabilitate it. Right now, I have a grip strength of 25kg in both hands, but the problem is I don't have any readings from before my injury, so I don't know how alarming that is. I know that most people should have a grip strength of 40kg and above, but I'm very skinny (I'm a man, 36 years old, I weigh 115 pounds and I'm 5''7) so I don't know how much strength I lost exactly.

CoC Certifications Per Year (w/ Graphs)

Hey guys, I got curious about the trend of Captains of Crush certifications. So, I decided to plot how many people certified each year and what the cumulative number is per year. I also plotted a linear trendline from the years 2004-2024 for the CoC #3, and it seems that 7-8 people certify per year (on average).

Total #3 - 308
Total #3.5 - 21
Total #4 - 6

How do I progress after closing my goal gripper?

I have recently closed the 200LB gripper and can close the 150LB 14 times. Should I do something like the heavy grips program that involves a lot of negatives and holds or should I keep repping the 150LB? I am trying to make my 200LB gripper my working gripper (closing it 5-7 times). Thank you for all answers.
