Bending Steel. Almost A Review. But Not Quite
It's called Bending Steel.
I have an unusual fascination with Old Time Strong Men's feats of strength. Some of these men are almost mythic in the power they can generate in short bursts.
Years ago, I read The Mighty Atom. It was a biography of Joseph Greenstein. At the turn of the 20th century, he was a small man, who showed physical powers just this side of unimaginable. He would bend horseshoes with his bare hands, bend a quarter in half, with his thumb. He was in Madison Square Garden at the age of 80, breaking chains across his chest....driving a spike through a thick pine board...with his bare hands.
The book The Mighty Atom, was the single most inspiring book I've ever read.
Anyway, I love reading about these guys, and I have used many of their methods to increase grip strength. No, Riffle..not for that.
