Wouldn't it be nice if there was a way to show off all the strength you have built up in your fingers, hands, and wrists for armwrestling? Of course it would! That's why we have provided two "Feats of Hand Strength" that you can perform almost anywhere, and they are extremely impressive ways to demonstrate your hand strength to others.

Not only will these Feats impress your friends, but they are also a great way to train the strength you need to succeed at armwrestling. The Feats of Hand Strength, listed from easiest to hardest, are: Ripping a phone book in half from top to bottom (pictoral) Ripping a phone book in half from top to bottom (video) Crushing multiple bottlecaps between your fingers

While we will show you some great techniques that will make these Feats significantly easier for you to perform, please understand that none of these Feats is easy (or anything close to it)! Chances are good that it will take significant practice on your part before you have mastered the arts of ripping phone books or crushing bottlecaps.

The Feats are INTENSE! Performance of these Feats puts tremendous stress on the joints of your fingers and hands. You wouldn't try to max out on Bench Press without warming up, would you? These Feats are no different! Be certain to warm up properly before attempting any Feat listed above!
