A little wedge-shaped thing that opens jar lids without effort (especially now that I've done weight training and have a grip).
What kinds of exercises are you doing for your grip? I use one of those handheld devices that you squeeze, and have managed to finally surpass my partner (now I am the one who opens the stuck jars ๐ค), but I crave greater gains still.
Either I take a heavy barbell (like the level I can deadlift minus a bit) and roll it in my hands, or I use a special tool I've got that's got a strap connected to a stack of weights where I roll up the strap until the weights are up to the bar, then lower it again by reversing the roll.
These are both BRUTAL exercises, I should warn you in advance.
Oof yeah I can understand that. Anything that works the little muscles burns like hell.
And thank you for sharing!
Not a problem! I enjoy spreading pain! ๐
