Pinching strength is important both in a fight and in combating repetitive strain injury.
If you extend you finger with your thumb underneath and parallel to your fingers, then you have the beginning position of the pinch.
I learned the importance of this type of hand strength the hard way. I learned about the solution in the ensuing physiotherapy.
To improve this type of hand strength get a Titan’s Telegraph Key from IronMind or have a metal shop make one for you.
Now understand this, this is serious training. It may not take a great deal of energy to do, but it vigorously works muscles, and to some degree, stresses tendons. Train no more than 3 times a week or you will have problems.
