forearm curls aren't good for improving grip because you use really light weights.
best way to improve grip is to do the heavy pull exercises: pullups, rows, deadlift, and shrugs (especially the last two!). and don't use wrist straps

I am going to try to lose 3 lbs this week, which gets me very close if not right under 180. I am tired of seeing that 8.
Started on the right foot yesterday. Very strong workout. My upper body has started to strengthen again as I run harder. As a sprinter, you know that you can get faster by making your upper body stronger. It may not make sense, but it is 100% true. In this case, it is the sprinting that is forcing my upper body to move violently, building my shoulders and back like crazy.

Nitro, when are you going to post pictures? You can remove your face, show us the results!!!!
So you are saying you want me to take your pics? LOL.
BTW, I think I leased your equipment to the Bright Chicago office.
