Canadian National Hand Strength Challenge
Hello DIESELS!
This holiday weekend, Labor Day Weekend, I am on a Mission to spread the word of Grip Strength.
On this Sunday Morning, I will be traveling to Ottawa, Ontario, Canada to assist with the running of the Canadian National Hand Strength Challenge, which is being run in the same locale as the Canadian National Armwrestling Championships.
In many chats, David Horne has told me that he always thought arm wrestlers would be a group that would really excel in Grip Sport. I am gearing up to see about that this weekend!
Details about the event are below, but what I am asking today is for you to take just a couple of minutes and help me promote this event via Facebook, Twitter, and any other forums and miscellaneous platforms you might use.
On top of running the challenge, I will also be speaking to the arm wrestlers about Grip Sport, how Grip Training can improve their game at the arm wrestling table.
If you could help me spread the word about this, it would be great. For Facebook and Twitter, I already have tools installed on the post in the upper right hand corner, so you can use those. For other sharing methods, you can simply copy the address of this specific post.
Thanks for the help. Check out exactly what we will be doing, below, in this excerpt sent to me by Eric Roussein, who is organizing the entire event.
Canadian National Hand Strength Challenge
On the evening of September 4th, in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, the inaugural Canadian National Hand Strength Challenge will be held.
This will be a medley-type event, in which competitors will try to complete as many challenges as possible among the 35 on hand.
A variety of objects will test different aspects of grip strength, which should keep things interesting for both athletes and spectators.
Participants will compete one at a time and each have six minutes to accumulate as many points as possible (each successfully completed challenge will earn 1 point).
Two separate divisions are offered: a small hands division (hands measuring 7.75″ or less from wrist to tip of middle finger), and a large hands division (hands greater than 7.75″ in length).
There are nice trophies for the top three finishers in each division. In the event of ties, gripper strap holds for time will be used to determine the winners.
The event is being held in conjunction with the Canadian National Armwrestling Championships, which should expose grip sport to many people who already have strong hands and wrists.
The action will take place following the armwrestling tournament in the ballroom of the Albert at Bay Suite Hotel in downtown Ottawa.
This competition is open to all Canadian residents. Interested participants can register at the event venue between 8 PM and 8:45 PM on the Sunday night (cost = $20). The challenge will start at 9 PM. Jedd Johnson will be driving up to officiate the event.
Event Venue:
The Albert at Bay Suite Hotel
435 Albert Street
Ottawa, Ontario
For more information, contact Eric Roussin at 613-837-1724 or eroussin@rogers.com
So, if you are in the neighborhood, I hope to see you there!
The top three performers in each category will also be featured in David Horne’s Top 3 that he maintains at his World of Grip website.
All the best in your training.
Jedd

Today, I went to the beach front with my kids. I found a sea shell
and gave it to my 4 year old daughter and said “You can hear the ocean if you put this to your ear.” She put the shell to her ear and
screamed. There was a hermit crab inside and it pinched her
ear. She never wants to go back! LoL I know this is totally off topic but I had to tell someone!

I have been browsing online more than 4 hours
today, yet I never found any interesting article like yours.
It is pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all
website owners and bloggers made good content as you did, the web will be much more useful
than ever before.

Definitely believe that which you said. Your favorite reason appeared to be on the net the easiest thing to be aware of.
I say to you, I definitely get annoyed while people consider worries that
they just do not know about. You managed to hit the nail upon the top and defined out the whole thing without having side
effect , people can take a signal. Will likely be back to get more.
Thanks

I am really enjoying the theme/design of your weblog. Do you ever run into any web browser compatibility issues?
A small number of my blog visitors have complained about
my website not operating correctly in Explorer but looks great in Opera.
Do you have any suggestions to help fix this issue?

Amazing blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere?
A theme like yours with a few simple adjustements would really make
my blog stand out. Please let me know where you got your theme.
Thank you

Undeniably believe that which you stated. Your
favorite justification appeared to be on the net the
easiest thing to be aware of. I say to you, I certainly get annoyed
while people consider worries that they just don’t know about.
You managed to hit the nail upon the top and also defined out the
whole thing without having side effect , people can take a
signal. Will probably be back to get more. Thanks

Thanks so much and I am taking a look forward to contact you.
Will you please drop me a e-mail?

You really make it appear so easy together with your presentation however I to find this topic to be really one thing which I feel I would
by no means understand. It sort of feels too complex and very broad for me.
I’m having a look forward for your subsequent publish, I’ll attempt to get the hold of it!
