rjmcleod - Grip & Wrist Strength Series

The best exercises (for you) would depend on your current strengths and weaknesses. It is difficult to determine without an assessment and compete review of your training history. The exercises you are currently doing are good ones when they are incorporated into a complete program. Using dumbbells instead of kettlebells works well as long as you can maintain a stable grip on the edges of the weight. From what you describe, it sounds like some shoulder stabilization exercises and rotator work would be helpful. Some great exercises include YWL’s and rotator exercises using a Physio band. To help you transition to a full pull-up, lat pull downs and assisted pull-ups on a gym machine or using a large band on the pull-up bar are great! Onearm rows and cage pulls are also good ones. Hope this is helpful!:) Of course, always check with your health care provider is these suggestions are suitable for you!

Noman Ahmed Ashraf - Grip & Wrist Strength Series

Hello, What would you say is the best exercise specifically for catching. Currently, I do closed grips while I lift/bench but my bar hangs are tiring because my shoulders are still weak to pull my whole body up. Also, a friend recommended Kettle-bell swings but I do them with dumbbells as I don't have kettle-bells in my gym. What are your thoughts on this?

Ultimate Rob - Clip Cones – Product Review

I'd think that the cone would break down and cover the hook from the stake, but to be totally safe, I'd recommend checking out tent stakes that get more flush from REI or MEC for like $1/each: https://www.mec.ca/en/product/1399-013/Aluminum-Wire-Tent-Peg.

Mike - Clip Cones – Product Review

What about the hook sticking up? I've considered buying these, however, it looks like a hazard if someone lays out on the cone. Is this the case?
