Plate Hold

An excellent method of improving your grip strength - simple but effective.

CLOSE UP	NORMAL

Grasp two weighted plates, ideally with flat surfaces facing each other, between your thumb and fingers.

Hold the weights down by your sides, taking care that if they drop, they will land on a soft area (mat - cushion) rather your unprotected feet.

Maintain the pressure for as long as possible, aiming on increasing the length of time you can hold the weights, however once you can hold for 1 minute plus, you may want to increase the weights - or hold in a straight arm in front position.
