Have you ever Crushed Someones Hand?

[WantNoFatAssHo!]

I have a quite good looking girlfriend, and when we go clubbing or to a pub, there's always a few drunk shitheads that try to make a move on her. I aint no big guy, only about 150lbs and 5'9''.

I hate to tell these dipshits to stay away from her because they always want to fight me since I am an abvious easy victim, and there are quite a few guys that really like to humiliate people and get in fights where i live. I know my chances of winning a fist-fight are slim, but I don't want to look like a coward either.

Well, I've decided to handshake-crush one of these fellas hands once. I am uncertain about weather I ever will be able to do this, so I am going to need some feedback.

I work out my forearms with focus on crushing strenght every 4 to 5 days. I do the Captains of Crush gripper, plate leverage (holding on only to on inch on the plate), reverse DB curls, no-strap chins and DB forearm-curls.

I currently manage about 20 solid reps on the CofC trainer. I know this aint a lot, but when i first started (two months ago) I could only do about two, so my progress has been good.

Please reply if you have ever handshake-crushed someones hand or seen someone else do this.

What would be a good time for me to try this? (e.g. when I manage to fully close the CofC #2)

Should I change my workout routine? How long time should I wait between the sets? And should I invest in the Ivanko Super Gripper? I am going to get theCofC #1, when I manage to close the trainer 25 times.

I've never done any cycles, but I was thinking of popping some good high quality var to up my strenght if I reach a tough plateau.

Any other tips?

The CoC gripper is a good one for sure. I'd go ahead and get the #1 as soon as you can and start giving it a whirl. There is little difference between a #1 and a trainer anyway.

My thought too, and also at what point in a fight do you stop to shake hands?

Also, how do you keep the other hand from forming a fist and hitting you in the face? This is what I would do, crushed hand or not.


Just let your girlfriend say "I am with him" seems to work most of the time.

Yeah, crushing somebody's hand as a dominance display is just too contrived a scenario. But how about taking a tip from our furry cousins, this is how they do it

Rank and Dominance Displays

Among the 50 or so members of a chimpanzee community, one adult male is recognized as the highest ranking or "alpha" male. While several males may exercise dominance over other males, the alpha male is dominant over all the members of the community, male and female. He attains his high-ranking position through intimidation, strength, and at least on one occasion, by exercising his intelligence.

There is no equivalent to the alpha male among female chimpanzees. Most females are of low dominance rank, but a few females do appear to exercise dominance over others. Very few females are recognized as being of high dominance. High ranking females may provide their infants and young children with some immunity; from the anger of other mothers whose children they have been fighting with or made angry.

Dominance displays occur when a male (or female) is attempting to intimidate a subordinate or to gain rank. A typical dominance display begins with the chimpanzee standing up straight with hair erect, shoulders hunched, faced compressed to look larger and meaner. The displaying chimpanzee will start to sway back and forth, shoving brush and other vegetation out of the way with exaggerated movements. The excited chimpanzee may hurl large rocks, tear off tree branches and drag them while running rapidly down a hill screaming or toward a potential victim Dominance displays usually don't erupt into full scale fighting. Instead, the cowering chimpanzee may choose to use one of many forms of submissive behavior to pacify the angry chimpanzee.

Chimpanzees in zoos have a variety of objects to incorporate into their dominance displays to create an illusion of greater size and strength. While standing up tall, shoulders hunched, faced compressed, and long powerful hands dragging and failing tree branches or throwing artificial objects, a zoo chimpanzee's display can be very impressive. Often the displaying chimpanzee runs willingly down a hill or around the enclosure screaming while banging and kicking on walls and objects to the thrill of the viewing crowd. This noisy fuss known as a display, usually ends in a peaceful resolution like those of their wild cousins.


Think how freaked out that guy will be when you go at him chimpanzee style! Him and all his crew will be completely demoralized. I didn't see any chest beating in there but fuckit it can't hurt.

shoulders hunched - I guess chimps have imaginary-lat-syndrome too!

A HEAD BUTT WOULD ACTUALLY BE BETTER THAN CRUSHING HIS HAND. YOU HAVE THE ELEMENT OF SUPRISE PLUS THE FACT THAT YOUR HEAD IS HARDER/HEAVIER THAN A FIST ANY DAY. NO ONE EVER SEES THEM COMING. I HAVE ACTUALLY USED IT BEFORE. I WAS FACED WITH FIGHTING TWO BLACK GUYS AND ONE OF THEM WAS IN MY FACE RUNNING HIS MOUTH. I TRIED TO WALK AWAY BUT WHEN I TURNED AROUND THE OTHER ONE PUSHED ME BACK SO I TURNED BACK AROUND AND HEAD BUTTED THE ONE DUDE. IT SPLIT HIS FUCKING NOSE WIDE OPEN LOL. EVERYTIME HIS HEART WOULD BEAT BLOOD WOULD SPURT FROM HIS FACE. HE WAS BLINDED BY BLOOD AND TEARS FROM HIS EYES SO I BEGAN TO FIGHT THE OTHER ONE FOR A MINUTE THEN MY BOYS ARRIVED TO CLEAR THINGS OUT REAL QUICK. TRY IT IF NEEDED BUT DONT USE YOUR FORHEAD. USE THE PART OF YOUR HEAD JUST ABOVE THE FORHEAD RIGHT ABOVE WHERE YOUR HAIRLINE IS.

Do the Checklist:

- Am I going to the "places" when going out, maybe there are places with less annoying people?

- How much does my girl put herself "on display" when going out ? Some guys can feel invited by her behaviour, than again, some rednecks come seek trouble anyway....


If the above was checked, but you still you are facing some annoying moron, I would go for the headbutt suggestion , also have shortrange pepperspray with large diffusuin cloud at hand, works wonders against angry lynch mobs and allows you to run for savety...

....Or don't crush his hand, but grab his crotch and imagine it's the Eagle Gripper #3 you have to close

My advice: Just move on...and while your at it try spending your leisure time in some less trashy environments.
