Ball Grip Pull Ups – Grip Strength Builder

November 29, 2011 By Gregor Winter

softball grip pull ups

This post on reddit reminded me how awesome homemade grip strength tools like baseballs, tennis balls and softballs are.

If you have ever been to a climbing gym you probably have seen these things before. They are a cheap, but valuable addition to your home gym.

Click here for a tutorial by Ross Enamait on how to build your own.

You don’t have to restrict yourself to just softballs. Try hanging different kinds of odd objects to keep things interesting.
