The World's Best Hand & Grip Strength Training Instruction
It is my feeling that every piece of sophisticated training equipment should come with a training guide... a road map of sorts.
My reasoning behind this is simple: if you are someone who may not be experienced with that particular piece of equipment
then you would be able to learn the important basic training ideas and methods for using it right out of the box. Sure, you'll
come up with your own tweaks here and there as you use it, but having a good idea of what the proper form or a sample
workout are supposed to look like are things that would be very helpful from the get-go.
... And if you're someone with a little more experience then you would be able to check out the
guide and add to your training knowledge
repertoire by finding out some of the other ways of using it that you may not have even realized.
Either way, a good training guide is an invaluable tool on your way to strength success and it is our goal to
eventually have such a guide for all the pieces of unique strength equipment that we feature.
Today, we are going to
start off with the first in the series and that is a training guide devoted to one of our most popular pieces of equipment:
Dr. Ken's Log Bar Trainer.
The Log Bar Training Guide is Now Available:
In the past we had a very basic training guide available for Dr. Ken's Log Bar and while it did
a decent job of illustrating some of the basic exercises, we felt that a more detailed training guide
for this piece of equipment would be preferable.
So, we got on the phone with Dr. Ken and asked
if he thought so too... he did... and then we went to work. We took some new pictures, fleshed out many
of the exercises descriptions, added some more sample workouts and even contacted some of our other friends (see who they were below)
who have been training with the Log Bar for a while now to see some of the ways they had been incorporating it in
their program.
And when all was said and done, the new Log Bar training guide turned out spectacularly well.
And yes, the information in this guide can be used with just about any parallell handle pressing bar. Keep reading

strong hombres and you are definitely going to want to see what they have to offer.
