Excerpt from Charles Poliquin Q & A:
I know that you and Brooks Kubik are big on thick handle work to
give muscles a different and presumably growth-stimulating stimulus.
But the dumbbells at my gym are the regular kind. Any gizmo you
know of that I could use to fatten the grip?
As a matter of fact, there is, it's called an EZ-grip. The prototypes
were first shown to me a few years ago by one of my seminar attendants
in Philly. You buy them in pairs. There's one for the left hand
and one for the right. They fit right over the regular types of
dumbbell and barbells. They're also recommended for people with
carpal tunnel syndrome-type symptoms. Incidentally, they also cut
down on the exposure to germs. It may sound as if I'm being anal,
but I recently stumbled on a study where they found that most barbell
handles have more germs on them than public urinals. Yet, many trainees
don't hesitate to wipe their faces with bare hands after doing a
few sets of curls.
