This is just a quick video to give you something to check out at your leisure on a Friday afternoon and over the weekend…

You all know I like trying out different Feats of Strength…

I was recently enjoying several days of High Volume Grip Training when I wanted to challenge myself with some very dynamic tests of grip strength.

What I decided to try was going for forward flips with the 95-lb Kettlebell while wearing cotton gloves.

These gloves are some of the slickest around. They are by far slicker than anything else I have ever worn while flipping kettlebells.

You’ll see the bell rip right out of my right hand, which was much more beat up than my left due to lots more Vulcan Gripper work.

Wearing gloves while flipping kettlebells isn’t something I do all the time, but it is pretty fun and challenging.

If you give it a try make sure your technique is solid, your hands are warmed up, and that you start out light! Don’t go ripping a finger out of its socket!

Question for you Have you tried any new feats lately? What’s the weirdest you ever tried? Leave a comment below…

All the best in your training.

This is a guest post from Logan Christopher of LegendaryStrength.com. Logan studies many forms of training we readily cover here at Diesel, including grip feats like bending steel and tearing cards as well as hand balancing and kettlebell juggling. His DVD, the Definitive Guide to Kettlebell Juggling, is a smorgasbord of kettlebell juggling information.

If you’ve been around the NET at all, you’ve seen a lot of video clips where people juggle kettlebells.  There are tons of different ways to juggle kettlebells.  I’ve seen guys do it behind their back, going between their legs, and even juggling more than one bell at a time.

While you may also have the goal of mastering the art of kettlebell juggling, it’s important to start out on the right foot or else you could get very frustrated and maybe even injured by improper technique. The way I started out was by performing what I call the Forward Flip and Catch.
