hey Bas, dat schepje bij Sportfood Dextrose, hoeveel gram is dat juist?
En heb je wat tips voor gripper oefeningen?
Hé Sayer, ik weet even niet welke maat schepje er op dit moment in zit. Het makkelijkste is even 1 schepje poeder op de keukenweegschaal te doen en dan weet je het.
Hieronder een interessant artikel met allerlei gripper oefeningen, een andere aanrader is dit boek:

Tips For Improving Gripping Strength
Use Strict Form.
Only the hands should be performing the movement, so do not twist the arm, or the whole upper-body, to try to generate additional strength. This just defeats the purpose. Also, close the gripper all the way for a few, or even one rep, as opposed to completing several reps of a three-quarter movement.
It is during the last quarter of this exercise that real results in strength occur.
Do Not Use Grips Which Will Not Give You The Fullest Possible Range Of Motion.
As mentioned, work up to harder grips as gripping strength increases. Start on the easiest grips and progress up, so as to avoid injury and achieve the greatest level of development.
Breathe Correctly As You Would With Any Other Exercise.
To perform successive grips successfully, it is important to achieve a sufficient intake of oxygen through correct breathing. Exhale when squeezing, inhale when releasing.
Use The Grippers While Watching Television, Or When Doing Some Other Form Of Passive Activity.
Turn a relatively passive activity, such as television watching, into a major hand and forearm workout. Obviously, for the most part, training should be done without outside distraction. However, the wrist, and forearm, region, responds best to high frequency stimulation. Therefore, doing gripping exercises in a non-gym context should not present too much of an issue provided the rules of correct training - mentioned earlier - are applied.
Always Warm-Up.
The wrist can be a very delicate structure, comparatively speaking. It is therefore important to ensure a lower pressure gripper is used prior to tackling the more advanced ones. Start with high reps at a low pressure and progress to lower reps at a higher pressure.
Do Multiple & Single Repetitions.
Performing both single and multiple repetitions will provide two different stimuli, which will, respectively, develop different aspects of gripping strength. Higher repetitions will work the endurance fibers (red slow-twitch), whereas heavy singles will employ the faster-contacting power (white, fast-twitch) fibers.
Gripping endurance and power will be established by mixing up the repetition ranges. Both ranges can be done in the same workout (advised), or one range at a time on separate days.
A Grip Program
Training Options:
Single Repetitions:
With a heavy duty gripper, such as the Heavy Sports Heavy Grips, perform one repetition. Rest for a minute before performing another. The resistance must be such that only one repetition is possible. This rep should take several seconds.
Multiple Repetitions:
With a multi-resistance, or lighter resistance, type gripper, such as the Harbinger Adjustable Grip, or Grip, perform several repetitions.
At the lower end of the scale for more power, perform between 10 and 15 reps. At the higher end, perform up to 100 or more.
Negatives:
Close a gripper, which cannot be completed with one hand, with two hands. Transfer the closed gripper to one hand and perform a negative repetition - by resisting the pressure, as it pushes the hands apart.
This action helps one to develop the required strength to move up a level to close a higher resistance gripper.
The Program
The workouts in this program can be done on training, or non-training, days, as they will not significantly compromise recovery from other training stimuli. Workouts should last no longer than 15-minutes. If the prescribed weights prove to high a resistance, aim for lower reps until form and strength are developed to a sufficient level.
